But it is at times interpreted as a hindering factor for development. This happens because population is both a consumer and producer. There are two schools of thought. One which treats population as a resource, and the other as a burden to the society. The truth, in fact, lies somewhere in between. The interplay of factors responsible for population growth and those for development decide the resourcefulness of population. 20. Why is it said that population is one resource that never depletes? 1) because other resources deplete 2) because population is an ever-increasing phenomenon -Answer 3) because population is seen as a resource 4) because it is an easily available commodity 5) None of these 21.
