    If the country has little, poor technology it is a:

    • Developed Country

    • Developing Country

    Correct Answer
    A. Developing Country
    Explanation
    A developing country is the correct answer because it implies that the country is in the process of improving its technology and infrastructure. A developed country, on the other hand, would have advanced technology and a high standard of living. Therefore, if a country has little and poor technology, it suggests that it is still in the process of developing and has not yet reached a high level of technological advancement.

    Explanation
    A country with good healthcare and hospitals indicates that it has advanced medical facilities and services, which are characteristic of a developed country. Developed countries have well-established healthcare systems that provide quality care to their citizens. This suggests that the country has made significant progress in terms of infrastructure, technology, and resources to support the health and well-being of its population.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    The average age a person will live to be (how long most live until)

    • Death Rate

    • Birth Rate

    • Life Expectancy

    • Literacy Rate

    Correct Answer
    A. Life Expectancy
    Explanation
    Life expectancy refers to the average age that a person is expected to live until. It is a measure that takes into account various factors such as healthcare, lifestyle, and socioeconomic conditions to estimate the average lifespan of a population. Death rate and birth rate are not directly related to the average age a person will live to be, while literacy rate is a measure of education and not directly related to life expectancy. Therefore, the correct answer is life expectancy.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    A developed country has a ___ GDP per capita income ($$)

    • Low

    • Moderate

    • Very Low

    • High

    Correct Answer
    A. High
    Explanation
    A developed country is characterized by a high GDP per capita income. This means that on average, individuals in a developed country have a higher income compared to individuals in other countries. This high income is often a result of advanced infrastructure, technology, and a strong economy. Developed countries typically have a higher standard of living, better healthcare, education, and overall quality of life for their citizens.

    A developed country has a ___ Life Expectancy Rate (average age to live up to)

    • Moderate 

    • Low 

    • Very Low

    • High

    Correct Answer
    A. High
    Explanation
    A developed country typically has a high life expectancy rate, meaning that the average age for individuals to live up to is relatively high. This is often due to factors such as advanced healthcare systems, improved living conditions, access to clean water and sanitation, and overall better quality of life. These factors contribute to a longer lifespan and higher life expectancy in developed countries compared to those with lower levels of development.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    A developing country has a ___ GDP per capita income ($$)

    • High

    • Very High

    • Low

    Correct Answer
    A. Low
    Explanation
    A developing country typically has a low GDP per capita income. This is because developing countries are still in the process of industrialization and economic growth, which usually leads to lower levels of income and wealth compared to more developed countries. The low GDP per capita income reflects the lower average income of individuals in the country, indicating that the country is still in the early stages of economic development.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    A developed country has a ___ Infant Mortality (death)Rate

    • Moderate

    • High

    • Low

    • Very High

    Correct Answer
    A. Low
    Explanation
    A developed country is expected to have a low infant mortality rate. This is because developed countries generally have better healthcare systems, access to medical facilities, and higher standards of living, which contribute to lower infant mortality rates. Additionally, developed countries often have better prenatal care, nutrition, and education for parents, which further reduce the risk of infant mortality. Therefore, a low infant mortality rate is indicative of a developed country.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    A developed country has a ___ Literacy Rate

    • Moderate

    • Low

    • Very Low

    • High

    Correct Answer
    A. High
    Explanation
    A developed country typically has a high literacy rate because it has well-established educational systems, widespread access to education, and a high emphasis on literacy skills. These countries prioritize education and invest in resources to ensure that their population is educated and literate. This high literacy rate contributes to the overall development and progress of the country, as it enables individuals to participate fully in economic, social, and political activities.

    The number of deaths per 1,000 live births of children under one year of age

    • Infant Mortality Rate

    • Birth Rate 

    • Literacy Rate

    • GD/capita

    Correct Answer
    A. Infant Mortality Rate
    Explanation
    Infant Mortality Rate refers to the number of deaths per 1,000 live births of children under one year of age. It is a crucial indicator of the overall health and well-being of a population, particularly the healthcare system and the living conditions of infants. A higher infant mortality rate suggests inadequate healthcare facilities, poor nutrition, and lack of access to clean water and sanitation. Conversely, a lower infant mortality rate indicates better healthcare services, improved living conditions, and higher quality of life for infants.

  • 11. 

    A developing country has a ___ Infant Mortality (death) Rate

    • Low

    • High

    • Moderate

    • Very Low

    Correct Answer
    A. High
    Explanation
    A developing country typically has a high infant mortality rate due to various factors such as inadequate healthcare infrastructure, limited access to medical facilities, poor nutrition, lack of education, and poverty. These countries often struggle to provide proper healthcare services and resources to pregnant women and infants, resulting in a higher number of infant deaths compared to more developed countries.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    A developing country has a ___ elderly (old) population

    • Very High

    • Low

    • Moderate

    Correct Answer
    A. Low
    Explanation
    A developing country generally has a lower elderly population compared to developed countries. This can be attributed to factors such as higher birth rates, lower life expectancy, and limited access to healthcare and social security systems. These factors contribute to a lower proportion of elderly individuals in the population, resulting in a low elderly population in developing countries.

    Rate this question:

  • 13. 

    A developing country has a ___ Literacy Rate

    • High

    • Moderate

    • Low

    • Very High

    Correct Answer
    A. Low
    Explanation
    A developing country typically has a low literacy rate due to various factors such as limited access to education, lack of resources, and socio-economic challenges. These countries often struggle to provide quality education to their population, resulting in a lower literacy rate compared to developed countries. This can hinder the overall progress and development of the country as literacy is crucial for economic growth, social development, and individual empowerment.

    Rate this question:

  • 14. 

    A developing country has a ___ GDP per capita income ($$)

    • Low

    • High

    • Moderate

    • Very Low

    Correct Answer
    A. Low
    Explanation
    A developing country typically has a low GDP per capita income. This is because developing countries often have lower levels of industrialization, infrastructure, and education compared to developed countries. As a result, the average income earned by individuals in these countries tends to be lower. This lower income level can limit access to basic necessities and opportunities for economic growth, making it difficult for individuals and the country as a whole to improve their standard of living.
