Answer: C

Post-neonatal mortality is the probability of dying after the first month and before the first birthday. It covers deaths from 28 days up to one year of age and is separate from neonatal mortality, which covers the first month.

The probability of dying in the first month is neonatal mortality, the probability of dying in the first year is infant mortality, and dying between the first and the fifth birthday is child mortality.
