1. Hypothesis: Males in the United States died earlier than females in the United States.

This is the data table for males and females in America:



This is the Human Survivalship Curve Between Male and Females in America:

This survivalship curve is a late death survivalship curve, which shows that people in America are generally living a longer life due to factor, such as a balance diet, good medical healthcare, and etc.

Evaluation:

My hypothesis was correct that males tend to die earlier than women because the human survivalship of males in the United States shows that males commonly die between the age of 60 ~ 80 because they tend to work more with physical labor and other reasons that contribute to their death. Males’ nutrition tends to be less healthy, which may have contributed to males’ early death.

Women’s survivalship curve illustrates the fact that women’s age of death is higher than the men’s age of death. This can be explained by the women’s diet, which tends to be healthy. Job type may also contribute to the longer age of death since women tend to work with office work rather than physical labor.

Limitations:

The limitations of this model are that the data doesn’t tell the lifestyle of every individual, which forces the observer to speculate reasons how each individual dies. Another limitation is the location where the data is drawn. Such data may be bias for a certain group of people, which may inaccurately represent the human survivalship of a region.
