Answer 1

The correct option is A iii, v, ii, iv

Here, the correct sequence [iii- v- ii- iv]: The problem of food is intimately connected with population (i). The market is governed by demand and supply (iii). If too many people demand goods to go round, prices will rise and poor classes will starve (v). Wages will seldom rise in proportion to the rising prices (ii). Without enough food, such people lack health, strength of efficiency (iv). They fall an easy prey to all sorts of disease (vi). So, option A is the answer.
