How are infant mortality and life expectancy related? What structural elements impact infant mortality and life expectancy rates?
Please provide the best answer for the statement.
1. Countries that have high infant mortality rates will have lower life expectancy rates
because many of their people already die before the age of 1.
2. Many of the same structural elements impact infant mortality and overall life expectancy.
3. Hunger and malnutrition impact both infant mortality and life expectancy, as a lack of
proper nutrition can make the body vulnerable to many diseases through a weakened
immune system.
4. Limited access to healthcare is a large structural barrier impacting both infant and adult
mortality.
5. The infrastructure of a nation can contribute to a lack of safe water and proper sanitary
conditions, which contributes to both high infant mortality rates and low life expectancy.
