Question

Go through the information given below, and answer the questions that follow.
The three graphs below capture the relationship between economic (and social) activities and subjective wellbeing. The first graph (Graph-1) captures the relationship between GDP (per-capita) and Satisfaction with life, across different countries and four islands: Gizo, Roviana, Niijhum Dwip, and Chittagong. The Graph-2 captures three different measures of subjective well-being (Satisfaction with life, Affect Balance and Momentary Affect) across the four islands, which have different levels monetization (Index). The Graph-3 captures levels of thirteen different socio-economic activities across four islands.

Which of the following site has the highest fishing to economic ratio?

• A. Gizo
• B. Chittagong
• C. Roviana
• D. Niijhum Dwip
• E. All four islands have equal dependence

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

To solve the question of which site has the highest fishing to economic ratio, we need to analyze the data presented in Graph-3, which shows the levels of socio-economic activities across the four islands: Gizo, Roviana, Niijhum Dwip, and Chittagong. The focus should be on the levels of fishing activities relative to other economic activities on these islands.

Steps to determine the site with the highest fishing to economic ratio are as follows:

1. Identify the Measure of Fishing Activity: Look for the level of fishing activity from Graph-3 for each of the given islands.
2. Compare Fishing with Other Economic Activities: Assess how fishing activities compare to other economic activities for each island. This comparison will be visual based on how prominently fishing is depicted in the graph relative to other activities.
3. Calculate the Ratio: Though the graph may not provide explicit numerical values, visually judge which island has a higher proportion of fishing activities compared to overall economic activities.
4. Conclusion for the Highest Ratio: Based on the visual analysis, Roviana shows a high level of dependence on fishing as compared to other economic activities, indicating that it has the highest fishing to economic ratio among the listed sites.

Thus, the site with the highest fishing to economic ratio is Roviana.
