The correct answer is (d). The sex ratio in Bangladesh is 106 males per 100 females, followed by Pakistan with 105 males per 100 females, India with 94 males per 100 females, and China with 91 males per 100 females.<\/p>\n
The sex ratio is the number of males per 100 females in a population. It is often used as an indicator of gender inequality, as a high sex ratio can be indicative of female infanticide or neglect.<\/p>\n
In Bangladesh, the sex ratio has been steadily increasing in recent years. This is likely due to a number of factors, including improvements in healthcare and nutrition, as well as a decline in the practice of female infanticide.<\/p>\n
In Pakistan, the sex ratio has also been increasing in recent years. However, it is still lower than the sex ratio in Bangladesh. This is likely due to a number of factors, including poverty, illiteracy, and a lack of access to healthcare.<\/p>\n
In India, the sex ratio has been declining in recent years. This is likely due to a number of factors, including female infanticide, neglect, and sex-selective abortion.<\/p>\n
In China, the sex ratio has been declining in recent years. This is likely due to a number of factors, including the one-child policy, which was implemented in 1979 and ended in 2015. The one-child policy led to a preference for male children, as parents were only allowed to have one child. This led to an increase in the number of female infanticides and abortions.<\/p>\n
The sex ratio is an important indicator of gender inequality. A high sex ratio can be indicative of female infanticide or neglect. It is important to monitor the sex ratio and to take steps to address any gender inequality that may exist.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
