d. The sick elderly lack many basic rights to protect them from abusive caretakers.

Explanation:

Age discrimination occurs when resources and opportunities are vetoed to individuals, a restriction whose criterion is based mainly on age. This prejudice occurs when older individuals are perceived according to preconceived stereotypes and negative looks. At the individual level, these actions are triggered by the chronological age or appearance of the person: the face, the body and the clothes. Collectively, aging becomes evident in the way services are organized, localized, or described.

An example of age discrimination can be seen even in formulating laws and establishing citizens' rights. This is because, we can see that in our society there are few laws that guarantee the rights of the elderly to defend themselves against abusive caregivers. This lack of security for the elderly has arisen from the age bias that makes people in power forget that the elderly are still thinking beings and important citizens for society.
