Question

question 19 of 30
which of the following is a consequence of inequalities in health care?

a. adequate birth control

b. differences in fertility rates

c. higher infant mortality rates

d. stay - at - home mothers

Explanation:

Health care inequalities mean unequal access to quality care. Higher infant mortality rates occur when groups lack access to prenatal, delivery, or postnatal care, which is a direct consequence of such inequalities. Adequate birth control is a resource (not a consequence), differences in fertility rates may relate but are not direct, and stay-at-home mothers are unrelated to care access gaps.

Answer:

C. Higher infant mortality rates
