• A. P–2, Q–3, R–4, S–1
• B. P–3, Q–1, R–2, S–4
• C. P–3, Q–1, R–5, S–4
• D. P–1, Q–4, R–2, S–3

Hint:

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Let’s break down the correct matches based on the definitions of different types of migration:

Involuntary migration (P): This refers to forced displacement, typically due to conflict, disaster, or persecution. Therefore, it matches with (3) Forced displacement from their origin to destination areas.

Step migration (Q): This occurs when a migrant follows a series of stages or stops towards a final destination. Therefore, it matches with (1) When a migrant follows a path or series of stages towards a final destination.

Circular migration (R): This involves repetitive movement of a migrant worker between their home and destination areas, often for work purposes. Therefore, it matches with (2) Repetitive movement of a migrant worker between home and destination areas.

Chain migration (S): This happens when immigrants from a particular area follow others from that area to a particular destination. Therefore, it matches with (4) Immigrants from a particular area follow others from that area to a particular destination.

Conclusion: The correct matches are (P–3, Q–1, R–2, S–4), which corresponds to option (B).
