• (A) - (I), (B) - (II), (C) - (III), (D) - (IV)
• (A) - (II), (B) - (III), (C) - (I), (D) - (IV)
• (A) - (III), (B) - (II), (C) - (IV), (D) - (I)
• (A) - (I), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (IV)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The following concepts are matched with their definitions:

(A) Fertility Rate - The number of live births per 1000 women of child-bearing age. This corresponds to (I) Number of live births per 1000 women in the child-bearing age group.

(B) Total Fertility Rate - The total number of live births a hypothetical woman would have throughout her reproductive years, assuming current age-specific fertility rates. This corresponds to (II) Total number of live births that a hypothetical woman would have during her entire reproductive years.

(C) Infant Mortality Rate - The number of infant deaths before one year of age per 1000 live births. This corresponds to (IV) Number of deaths of babies before the age of one year per 1000 live births.

(D) Maternal Mortality Rate - The total number of maternal deaths during childbirth per 1000 live births. This corresponds to (III) Total number of women who die in childbirth per 1000 live births.

The correct pairings are:

(A) Fertility Rate - (I) Number of live births per 1000 women in the child-bearing age group

(B) Total Fertility Rate - (II) Total number of live births that a hypothetical woman would have during her entire reproductive years

(C) Infant Mortality Rate - (IV) Number of deaths of babies before the age of one year per 1000 live births

(D) Maternal Mortality Rate - (III) Total number of women who die in childbirth per 1000 live births

The correct answer is Option 3: (A) - (I), (B) - (II), (C) - (IV), (D) - (III).
