Question

If a life insurance applicant's answers on the application indicate that he/she is in good health, when in fact the applicant has a disease that he/she is not aware of, the statement on the application is considered:

Answer 1

Answer: d. A representation

Step-by-step explanation:

A Representation refers to a statement that a person seeking insurance makes on their insurance application that to the best of their knowledge represents the truth in the questions asked.

This is what the applicant in the question did because they did not know that they had a disease that should be disclosed. Representations can be legal grounds to void a statement by an insurance company if information provided is eventually proven wrong.
