MCQ (Single Correct)
English हिन्दी
How often does the Census Bureau take a complete population count ?
जनगणना ब्यूरो (Census Bureau) कितने वर्षों के अंतराल पर पूर्ण जनसंख्या गणना करता है?
EXPLANATION Computer Architecture and Hardware: Generations of Computers, CPU, Memory Hierarchy (RAM, ROM, Cache), Input-Output

Analysis of census periodicity:

  • Correct: National census organizations (such as the Office of the Registrar General & Census Commissioner in India, and the US Census Bureau) conduct complete comprehensive population censuses decennially, i.e., once every 10 years.
  • Incorrect: Agricultural censuses and livestock censuses in India are conducted at 5-year intervals, but comprehensive population censuses are conducted every 10 years.
  • Incorrect: 2-year cycles are not used for complete censuses.
  • Incorrect: Annual counts are sample estimates (e.g. American Community Survey or SRS), not full census counts.

जनगणना की आवधिकता का विश्लेषण:

  • सही: राष्ट्रीय जनसंख्या जनगणना (जैसे भारत में महापंजीयक एवं जनगणना आयुक्त कार्यालय तथा अमेरिकी जनगणना ब्यूरो) पूर्ण जनसंख्या की गणना प्रत्येक 10 वर्ष में (Decennial census) करती है।
  • गलत: कृषि गणना और पशुधन गणना 5 वर्षों में होती है, किंतु व्यापक जनसंख्या जनगणना 10 वर्षों में होती है।
  • गलत: यह अमान्य समयावधि है।
  • गलत: वार्षिक आधार पर केवल नमूना सर्वेक्षण (Sample surveys) किए जाते हैं, पूर्ण जनगणना नहीं।
