Options:

Place of Destination

Place of Birth

Correct Answer:

Place of Origin

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (4) → Place of Origin

"When people move from one place to another, the place they move from is called the Place of Origin and the place they move to is called the Place of Destination. The place of origin shows a decrease in population while the population increases in the place of destination. Migration may be interpreted as a spontaneous effort to achieve a better balance between population and resources."
