A state's high population does not always mean what?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Its area is also the largest

The direct answer is A: a state’s high population does not always mean that its area is also the largest. Population size tells how many people live in a place, while area tells how much land the place covers. A small state can have many people because it may have dense settlements, cities, jobs and good services. A large state can have fewer people if much of its land is mountainous, forested, dry or otherwise difficult to inhabit. Option A is correct because population and geographical area are separate measurements. Option B is wrong because a state counted as having a population necessarily has people living there. Option C is wrong because population figures are obtained through the Census or other official estimates. Option D is wrong because a state in this context is a part of India. Do not confuse population size with population density: density compares people with area, commonly as people per square kilometre. Memory cue: number of people is not the same as size of land.
