In which situation can high literacy indirectly reduce population growth?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: When it affects marriage age, health awareness and family planning

Direct answer: Option A is correct. Literacy can influence population growth indirectly by improving people’s access to information and their ability to make informed decisions. Education may be associated with later marriage, better awareness of maternal and child health, knowledge of contraception and greater consideration of the cost and care involved in raising children. These factors can contribute to smaller desired family size and lower fertility, although literacy alone does not guarantee the same result everywhere. Option B is wrong because literacy is not intended to raise mortality. Option C is wrong because literacy does not stop a census; education may improve awareness of census participation. Option D is wrong because education cannot reduce the physical area of a region. Memory cue: literacy changes choices and awareness; it does not directly change land area or deliberately cause deaths.
