• B. Low mortality rate
• C. Low production of old people
• D. Due to improvement of care during and post pregnancy

Answer 1

The correct option is D Due to improvement of care during and post pregnancy

Population growth has increased to a great extent over a period of time. There are many factors behind this, such as high birth rate i.e. more birth of young ones, low death rate i.e. low mortality rate etc. but the most important reason is improvement of care during and post pregnancy. Earlier people didn't have knowledge to take care of young ones and also during pregnancy but with the advancement in awareness programmes, people have been taught how to take care during the pregnancy and of young ones after pregnancy. This has resulted in decrease in mortality rate and hence, increased population growth.

So, the correct answer is 'Due to improvement of care during and post pregnancy '.
