If 40 percent of a country's population is aged 0-14, which type of social need is likely to be relatively high?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Schools, child health and nutrition services

The governing concept is age composition and its effect on social-service demand. If 40 percent of the population is aged 0–14, children form a very large part of the population and the youth dependency burden is high. The government is therefore likely to need more classrooms, teachers, vaccination, child-health facilities, nutrition programmes, safe recreation and eventually skill-development opportunities. Option A correctly combines the major needs associated with a large child population. Options B, C and D focus on older people and would be more relevant where the elderly share is unusually high. The age distribution helps planners allocate resources according to the population groups requiring support.
