1.	Observe the map showing the distribution of population and answer the following questions. i) Density of population is very high in the northern plains. Explain. ii) In Peninsular plateau the density of population is moderate. Explain. iii) How was the density of population in the mountain states? Explain.
Answer» i) Along the northern plains, the density of population is very high because of the fertility of the soil, road and rail network, etc. ii) Lack of fertility of the soil and the difficulty in reaching the places are the reasons. At the same time presence of mineral resources have helped the concentration of population in some areas. iii) In the mountain states, the population is very less due to difficult terrains and the soil is not suitable for cultivation.

Answer»

i) Along the northern plains, the density of population is very high because of the fertility of the soil, road and rail network, etc.

ii) Lack of fertility of the soil and the difficulty in reaching the places are the reasons. At the same time presence of mineral resources have helped the concentration of population in some areas.

iii) In the mountain states, the population is very less due to difficult terrains and the soil is not suitable for cultivation.
