Q.Improvement of human race by encouraging the healthy persons to marry early and produce large number of children is called

Eugenics is the (now ethically controversial) idea of improving human hereditary qualities through selective reproduction and genetic counselling.

What is Eugenics?

Eugenics is the study/practice aimed at improving the genetic constitution of the human population by promoting reproduction among individuals considered to have desirable hereditary traits, and discouraging it among those with heritable defects/disorders.

Two utilities (proposed uses) of eugenics:

1. Reducing hereditary disorders: Through genetic counselling and screening (e.g., identifying carriers of a genetic disease before marriage/childbirth), couples can be made aware of the risk of passing on a hereditary disorder to their children, helping reduce the incidence of such disorders in future generations.

2. Improving population health awareness: Eugenic principles have historically been used to promote general awareness about heredity, marriage counselling, and family planning as tools to improve the overall health and genetic well-being of a population.
