Explanation / Answer

9. Correct ans is option b. Adverse selection refers to a situation where buyers have some additional information that sellers do not have, or vice versa. Here John has more information about his health that insurance company dont have. So the company will ask for the premium which normal health person has to pay because the company dont know about John's health issues. In this case John is more likely to buy the health insurance than the average person.
