Question

Which age group of people is more susceptible to the effects of air pollution?

विकल्प

• Women of all age groups

• Elderly people

• Young men working outdoor

• School children

Answer 1

Elderly people

Explanation:

Older adults are more vulnerable because age-related declines in lung and immune function and higher rates of chronic heart and lung disease raise their risk of severe effects from air pollution. The provided material states that “Elderly people are more affected by air pollution” and notes air pollution is especially harmful to the elderly (and to babies/those with asthma).
