What is one social effect of a large share of people aged 0 to 14?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Greater need for schools and nutrition programs

The age group from 0 to 14 consists mainly of children who are usually not economically active. A large share of children therefore creates strong demand for services that support growth, learning, and health. Governments and communities may need more schools, teachers, classrooms, nutrition programmes, vaccination, child-health care, and safe recreational facilities.

This does not mean that every child has exactly the same need or that other services are unimportant. It means that the age structure gives a clear planning signal: a youthful population requires substantial investment in children. Pension and geriatric-care needs are more directly associated with a large elderly population, not a large child population. Therefore option A is the appropriate social effect. The question asks for one effect, and the increased need for schools and nutrition programmes follows directly from the large 0–14 share.
