Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Infant mortality represents an important component of under-five mortality. Like under-five mortality, infant mortality rates measure child survival. They also reflect the social, economic and environmental conditions in which children (and others in society) live, including their health care.

Detailed explanation-2: -The state that has the highest mortality rate in India is Madhya Pradesh and the least is in Kerala.

Detailed explanation-3: -One such criterion is the income per capita; countries with the high gross domestic product (GDP) per capita would thus be described as developed countries. Another economic criterion is industrialisation; countries in which the tertiary and quaternary sectors of industry dominate would thus be described as developed.
