Sociologist: A recent study of 5,000 individuals found, on the basis of a physical exam, that more than 25 percent of people older than 65 were malnourished, though only 12 percent of the people in this age group fell below government poverty standards. In contrast, a greater percentage of the people 65 or younger fell below poverty standards than were found in the study to be malnourished.
Each of the following, if true, helps to explain the findings of the study cited by the sociologist EXCEPT:
(A) Doctors are less likely to correctlydiagnose and treat malnutrition in their patients who are over 65 than in their younger patients. - WRONG. If not diagnosed and treated properly there would be more elders who would be malnourished.
(B) People over 65 are more likely to take medications that increase their need for certainnutrients than are people 65 or younger. - WRONG. Suggests yonger lot is healthy than elder one.
(C) People over 65 are[color=#e74c3c] more likely to suffer
