Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The data shows that children under the age of 5 are at a higher risk of homicide when living with a stepparent than with their biological parent. Therefore, the logical conclusion is that young children are more at risk when living with a stepparent. There is no evidence in the data to support choices A or B, and choice C is too broad and does not take into account other factors that could contribute to homicide.
