Answer 1

Adults over the age of 70

Answer 2

This question is asking about the notion of a target population. A target population is a specific group of people a study desires to investigate. In survey studies like the one described here, it would represent the set of subjects which the research intends to focus on or are of interest. In this case, the research group defines the target population within the parameters of "adults over the age of 70," as these are the subjects they wish to study, and they have set specific guidelines regarding age.
