Question

choose the correct answer. why do developing nations typically have lower life expectancies compared to developed nations? higher level of education lower infant mortality rate lack of access to healthcare higher wealth and income

Explanation:

Developing nations often struggle with limited healthcare infrastructure. This lack of access means that preventable diseases, maternal - child health issues, and chronic conditions are not adequately managed. In contrast, developed nations have well - established healthcare systems. Higher education (A) and higher wealth (D) are more associated with developed nations. Lower infant mortality (B) is a result of better healthcare (which developed nations have), not a cause of lower life expectancy in developing nations. So, the lack of access to healthcare (C) is the main reason for lower life expectancies in developing nations.

Answer:

C. lack of access to healthcare
