2. The basic mechanism that allows insurance to work is:

Pooling the premiums of many to pay the losses of a few

Insurance pools premiums from many insureds so that the relatively few who suffer covered losses can be paid.

3. Which type of risk is insurable?

Pure risk, involving only the chance of loss or no loss

Only pure risk, which involves the chance of loss or no loss with no possibility of gain, is generally insurable.

Mortality tables show expected death rates by age and gender, helping insurers price life coverage and set reserves.
