Introduction to Financial Markets (405) — CBSE Class 10 board question

(a) A career is a profession or occupation that a person pursues over a long period of their life to earn a living and achieve personal and professional growth.

(b) A person can earn a living in two ways:

1. By doing a job (employment/service)
2. By doing business (self-employment/entrepreneurship)

The source passages provided relate to investment and securities, not careers. The question is from a different chapter/topic (likely an introductory chapter on careers and employment). The answers above reflect standard CBSE Class 10 (Employability Skills / Vocational) definitions:

• A career is a standard one-line definition.
• The two ways to earn a living (job vs. business) is a fundamental concept tested frequently.

If your textbook has a specific definition, always prefer that exact wording.
