Matching Demographic Terms
This question involves matching key demographic indicators from List I with their correct definitions provided in List II.
Understanding Demographic Indicators
Each term relates to a specific aspect of a population:
- Literacy (a): Refers to the ability of individuals to read and write. This matches definition iii. Number of people who can read and write.
- Infant mortality (b): Measures the number of deaths among infants. This corresponds to definition iv. Number of children who die in their infancy.
- Life expectancy (c): Indicates the average number of years a person is expected to live. This matches definition ii. Number of years a person lives.
- Age at marriage (d): Pertains to the age at which individuals typically get married. This matches definition i. Age at which a girl is married.
Determining the Correct Code
By pairing each term from List I with its definition from List II, we establish the following matches:
| a â iii |
| b â iv |
| c â ii |
| d â i |
This sequence of matches forms the code a-iii, b-iv, c-ii, d-i.
Important Questions from Population Geography - Teaching
- Arrange the demographic cycle in sequential order:
A. Early Expanding (Decline of death rate while birth rate remains high)
B. Declining (Low death rates and birth rates fall below death rates)
C. High stationary (High birth and High death rate)
D. Low Stationary (Low birth and low death rate)
E. Late expanding (death rate declines and birth rate begins to fall)
Choose the correct answer from the options given below: - Which of the following statements are true with respect to stationary and stable population?
A. A stationary population is not always stable.
B. A stationary population is always stable.
C. A stable population need not be stationary.
D. In stationary population, the rate of overall change in the population is zero
E. In stable population, the rate of overall change in population is constant (not necessary zero)
Choose the correct answer from the options given below: - Natural growth of population refers to :
- Who developed the theory of demographic transition ?
