Question

All the given issues are the result of alarming population growth rate, except

• A. scarcity of basic requirements
• B. malnutrition
• C. reproductively healthy society
• D. increase in poverty

Answer 1

The correct option is C reproductively healthy society

A rapid increase in population growth rate could lead to a scarcity of basic requirements like food, shelter and clothing which could ultimately lead to the malnutrition and poverty among the masses.

A reproductively healthy society consists of individuals with physically and functionally normal reproductive organs and normal emotional and behavioural interactions among them in all sex-related aspects. An increased population growth rate will generally mean a reproductively unhealthy society.
