If the share of people aged 60 years and above is increasing, demand for which service may rise?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Pensions and elderly health services

When the proportion of people aged 60 and above increases, the age structure becomes older. Older people may need regular medical care, treatment for chronic conditions, medicines, rehabilitation, and long-term support. They may also require income security after retirement. As a result, public authorities and families may face greater demand for pensions, elderly health services, social protection, and suitable care facilities.

Primary schools and infant-care centres mainly serve younger age groups, so their demand is more directly linked to the number of children and babies. Playgrounds may be useful for everyone, but they are not the most specific service associated with population ageing. Therefore, option C is the best answer. The exact services needed depend on health, income, family support, and the country’s welfare arrangements.
