Answer 1

China's demographic problem of 4-2-1, resulted in a higher proportion of elderly individuals compared to the younger population. This was primarily due to the implementation of One Child Norm.

Explanation:

• China's One Child Policy, implemented in 1980, aimed to control population growth but led to the 4-2-1 demographic issue where one child supports two parents and four grandparents.
• Over time, this policy resulted in an aging population with a shrinking younger workforce, creating challenges in maintaining economic growth and social welfare systems.
