Question

Region where fire deaths are most common for females

A) North America
B) Asia
C) Europe
D) Africa

Answer 1

The region where fire deaths are most common for females is b. Asia.

Step-by-step explanation:

The region where fire deaths are most common for females is b. Asia. In India alone, over 700,000 children under 5 die annually from diarrhea. In Africa, malaria causes about 500,000 deaths annually.

More than half of the world's households use unprocessed solid fuels, particularly biomass (crop residues, wood, and dung) for cooking and heating in inefficient stoves without proper ventilation, exposing people—mainly poor women and children—to high levels of indoor air pollution (IAP). IAP causes about 2 million deaths in each year.
