Question

Give biological explanation for 'Education is very important for population control'.

Answer 1

The growing population can be controlled by using birth control/ contraceptive measures. Education is very important to understand the need for population control and also to understand the use of such contraceptives. There are many birth control measures which can possibly control population growth, but due to lack of awareness and proper education, birth control is not possible. Secondly, understanding the phases of the menstrual cycle in females will help them know when to avoid sexual intercourse, which can be used as a biological birth control measure. Hence, if people are educated, the population can be controlled.
