Which option correctly gives policy use of population growth and age structure?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Expanding planning for schools, vaccination, and child health services when the child population rises
Age structure shows the proportion of children, working-age people, and elderly people in a population. When the child population increases, the need for schools, vaccination, nutrition, and child-health services also increases; therefore, option A is correct. Options B and C do not match services with the needs of the relevant age group, while option D ignores the importance of age structure. Exam tip: Link growth in an age group with that group’s education, health, or social-security needs.
