Which amongst these was not a reason for banning of abortions by 1900?
Explanation:
In paragraphs 2 and 3, the reasons for banning abortions have been given. Health and safety concerns prompted medical professionals (option 1). Operations performed by unlicensed medical practitioners were also a concern (option 3). Political motivators were immigrants with lots of children (option 2). The idea was to encourage natives to go for more births rather than abortions. Options 1, 2 and 3 have been clearly mentioned in the passage as reasons for banning abortions. There is no mention of matriarchal control in this passage. Hence, the correct answer is option 4.
