The crude death rate in the
United States is 150/100,000. The
crude death rate in a smaller, developing
country is 75/100,000. Based
on these data, which one of the following
statements best explains the
data?
a. The health care system of the developing
country is far better than that
in the United States
b. More people die in the United
States because it has a larger population
c. Infant mortality in the first week is
higher in developing countries, but
it is not included in the crude death
rate
d. Death rates in the developing country
are lower due to the emigration
effect
e. Crude death rates are usually higher
in developed countries because of a
higher proportion of older persons
in the population

Answer should be E
Even though at any age death rates in developing countries are higher than in the developed countries (US), CDR of developing countries is lower because a higher proportion of their population is in age groups where mortality is relatively low, in particular, young adulthood.
