The population of the world is not spread evenly over the earth. Its distribution is effected by various factors such as climatic conditions, developments, fertility of land, topography, etc. The most densely populated continents are Asia and Europe. If we consider the population of India, it has a large number of population unevenly distributed all over the country. The current high population growth rate is due to the large size of the population in the re-productive age group, higher fertility due to unmet need of contraception and a high wanted fertility due to prevailing high Infant Mortality Rate. In most of the cases, a huge population is considered to be an obstacle for the growth and development of any nation. On the other hand, population growth can also be advantageous as population growth will lead to economic expansion since more people can produce more goods. As population increases, the economy can also benefit from a bigger talent pool, economies of scale and greater specialisation. All these can result in a higher per capita income which will elevate the living standard of the people and help in the growth of the country’s economy.
Questions:
(i) Mention one factor that effect the distribution of population.
(ii) “ The population of India is increasing rapidly at a high rate.” Write any one major reason for the high growth rate of the country’s population.
