Which category is explicitly listed as a group that must report suspected child abuse in the material?

• A. Law enforcement officers
• B. Medical professionals
• C. Mandated reporters
• D. School administrators

Answer: (C)

The main idea here is understanding who is legally required to report suspected child abuse. The material explicitly names a group called mandated reporters as the ones who must report. This label is used to designate professionals and others who, by law, have a duty to report concerns to child protective services or the appropriate authorities. That explicit listing makes this option the best choice, because it directly reflects the category the material uses to describe the reporting requirement. While law enforcement officers, medical professionals, and school administrators are commonly included in mandated reporting in many places, the material sticks to the umbrella category “mandated reporters,” which is why it’s the correct answer.
