Answer:

B. Life Expectancy

Read Explanation:

Life Expectancy represents the health dimension of the Human Development Index (HDI).

The HDI, developed by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), is a composite index that measures the overall development of a country. It is based on three key dimensions:

  1. Health: Measured by Life Expectancy at Birth, which reflects the overall health and longevity of a population.

  2. Education: Measured by Mean Years of Schooling for adults and Expected Years of Schooling for children.

  3. Standard of Living: Measured by Gross National Income (GNI) per capita.

Thus, life expectancy is a key indicator of the health aspect of human development.
