Consider the following statements: 1. The rate of population growth is increasing in the country 2. The death rate is declining faster in the country compared to birth rate 3. The birth rate is declining faster in the country compared to death rate 4. Rural-urban migration is taking place regularly in the country Which one of the following conclusions may be true in the light of the above facts? Correct Answer The rate of population growth is increasing due to a faster decline in the death rate than in the birth rate.
It is clear from the given statements that the rate of population growth is increasing in the country. Rural-urban migration does not lead to population increase directly as the overall population of the country remains the same in this case.
The rate of population growth is increasing due to a faster decline in the death rate than in the birth rate. It expresses the complete logic properly.
Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
