    a) hyper growth rate in an economy
    b) economic growth takes place automatically
    c) economy is de-linked from primary sector and growth is occurring in secondary sector

  • 1- Kuznets
    I saw the curve. It is a simple bell curve. Why cant answer be simple bell curve?

    Because Kuznets curve is the curve the question is referring to..
    It is also a type of bell curve but what would, according to you, be the most correct answer?
    We are supposed to pick the most suitable answers in case we think more than one option is correct.
    I am not saying Kuznets is wrong. I am just saying bell curve should also be correct :(

    Kuznets is after-all a specialized type of bell curve!
