People aged 0 to 14 years are generally placed in which broad population group?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Child population

Age structure divides a population into broad age groups. People from 0 to 14 years are generally classified as children. They are usually still growing, studying, and receiving care from families or institutions. Their participation in regular paid work is normally limited, so they are commonly counted among the dependent population rather than the working-age population.

The elderly group refers to older people, while the working-age group usually covers adults capable of participating in economic activity, although exact limits can differ by statistical system. “Retired population” is not a standard age-structure category because retirement depends on occupation and policy. Therefore, option B, child population, is the correct choice.
