Solution

The correct option is D

All of these


The correct option is D.
Explanation of the correct option:

  1. Deforestation can be defined as the large scale removal of trees to clear land for the utilization of human activities.
  2. Industrialization is one of the major causes of deforestation. Construction of roads on the forest land opens up large areas of deforestation. Raw materials such as timber required for timber industries in large amount also leads to deforestation.
  3. Overpopulation is also one of the causes of deforestation. With the increase in population, demand for food, shelter and other accommodation increases and which is directly fulfilled with the help of forest products.
  4. Agricultural production is also the leading cause of deforestation. As the human population continues to grow, there is an obvious need for food which is fulfilled by the forests.
