Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to CDC data, the probability of dying in any given year in the United States is less than 20 percent for both males and females over the age of 85. It increases with age for both genders, but there is no evidence to suggest that it increases more quickly for females than males or that it is greater for females across all age groupings. The probability of dying is also not a fixed percentage for a specific age group like adult males aged 15-24, so choice C is incorrect.
