Answer:

Famine causes weight loss in adults and stunted growth in children. If the famine continues for any length of time, malnutrition starts to cause an increase in mortality. The young and the old tend to die first, and often diseases kill more individuals than overt starvation. Famine also leads to widespread amenorrhoea, increased rates of stillbirths and low birth weight babies (and hence neonatal deaths). The prevalence of overt vitamin deficiency disease in the community depends in considerable measure on the customary background diet, and, in part, on physiological stores.
