Correct answer: C If assertion is true but reason is false.

The Assertion is true - NCERT mentions four factors affecting population density. However, the Reason is false. NCERT states “two of which (natality and immigration) contribute to an increase in population density and two (mortality and emigration) to a decrease” - the Reason swaps immigration with emigration and their effects.
