**1. What type of term insurance has a premium that gradually
increases each year as the insured ages?**
**Answer:** Yearly Renewable Term (YRT) / Annually Renewable Term
(ART)
**Rationale:** Yearly Renewable Term insurance provides coverage for
one-year periods. The premium increases each year based on the
insured's attained age, making it an affordable option for short-term
needs but increasingly expensive over time .

policy to another person?**

ownership rights to another party. This transfer is irrevocable unless

collateral assignment, which is temporary and used as loan security .

policies?**
**Answer:** Actual loss of a body part (not just loss of use)

alone, without physical severance, does not qualify for dismemberment
benefits under standard definitions .

results provisions?**
**Answer:** Accidental means requires the insured not be in control of
the accident; accidental results pays benefits regardless of the cause

itself to be unexpected. "Accidental results" is broader—the injury is
accidental even if the cause was intentional .

**6. What term describes an insurance contract where the parties
exchange unequal values?**
**Answer:** Aleatory contract

exchanged are unequal—the policyholder pays a small premium
compared to the potential large benefit if a loss occurs. This
distinguishes insurance from commutative contracts where equal
values are exchanged .

**7. What type of policy combines features of term and whole life
insurance with flexible features?**
**Answer:** Adjustable life insurance

coverage amounts, premium payments, and policy length. It provides

needs .
