Answer:
The sex ratio is the ratio of males to females in a population. In most sexually reproducing species, the ratio tends to be 1:1. This tendency is explained by Fisher's principle. For various reasons, however, many species deviate from anything like an even sex ratio, either periodically or permanently.
Explanation:
Sex ratio in the Indian population is becoming adverse to women. It has been rapidly declining decade by decade. It widely differs among states and union territories. The major causes for declining sex ratio are: sex ratio at birth, sex-selective abortions, sex ratio of children and sex-differentials in mortality etc
