Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → (A)-(III), (B)-(I), (C)-(IV), (D)-(II)
(A) Natural Growth of Population — this matches (III) Births − Deaths. It is the change caused only by births and deaths.
(B) Crude Birth Rate — this matches (I) \(\displaystyle\frac{Bi}{P}\times 1000\). It is the number of live births in a year per thousand of the mid-year population (P).
(C) Crude Death Rate — this matches (IV) \(\displaystyle\frac{D}{P}\times 1000\). It is the number of deaths (D) in a year per thousand of the mid-year population.
(D) Actual Growth of Population — this matches (II) Births − Deaths + in-migration − Out-migration. It adds the effect of migration to births and deaths.
NCERT (2026-27): “Natural Growth of Population: This is the population increased by difference between births and deaths in a particular region between two points of time.” “Actual Growth of Population : This is Births – Deaths + In Migration – Out Migration” “The crude birth rate (CBR) is expressed as number of live births in a year per thousand of population.” “CDR is expressed in terms of number of deaths in a particular year per thousand of population in a particular region.” |
