What is the minimum age requirement for an intern applicant in mortuary science?

18 years old.
21 years old.
25 years old.
30 years old.

The correct answer is: 18 years old.

The minimum age requirement for an intern applicant in mortuary science is set at 18 years old. This age reflects the legal standard for individuals to be considered adults capable of making decisions and commitments, which is particularly relevant in the context of handling sensitive situations related to death and funerals. At 18, individuals can legally enter contracts, which includes agreements related to internships or employment in a funeral service setting. This age requirement ensures that interns are mature enough to engage in the responsibilities associated with mortuary science while still allowing younger individuals interested in the field to begin their training and gain experience.
