Question

I know this isn't math but there is no place to post this and I really need help.

Which of the following is an unintended consequence of China's one-child policy?

Farms no longer have enough laborers
Many schools have been closed due to a lack of students.
Chinese orphanages predominantly have male children available for adoption.
Women are less likely to pursue higher education degrees
Men are finding a favorable male to female ratio < my answer

Answer 1

a donkey

Answer 2

i am pretty sure you are right. There are now more men than women so the men have no one to marry which means no more babies.

Answer 3

The only issue I have with my answer is, the questions states "unintended" but the more males than females being born was intentional with newborn females being more likely to be killed.

Answer 4

That's just what they did because males were more "valued". The intention of the one chlid policy was to reduce the population.

Answer 5

*child

Answer 6

Hmm, alright, thank you :)

Answer 7

No problem! :)
