Solution
The Answer is A.
The difference in the health status of population or a part of it. Disparity is mainly due to different factors like i) Individual factors, ii) Community factors and iii) System factors. The important factors are gender, age, race, geographic area, language, customs, culture, socioeconomics status, education, employment and special health care etc. In case of older adults, the major health disparities are injury rate, disease rate, obesity rates, physical activity rate, alcohol intake, tobacco usage, neuro problems and health insurance. So, the health disparities are more in case of older adults than young people.
