Under which one of the following life insurance policies does the protection extend to age 100, while the premiums are paid for a shorter period of time?

Endowment policies provide a death benefit if the insured dies within a specified term, or a maturity benefit if they survive to the end of that term. However, they typically pay out benefits within a shorter time frame (like 10, 20, or 30 years) rather than extending to age 100, making them unsuitable for this question.

Continuous premium whole life policies require premiums to be paid throughout the life of the insured. Unlike limited payment whole life, there is no defined period for premium payments, and coverage lasts for the insured's lifetime, but it does not align with the concept of paying premiums for a shorter period.

Yearly renewable term insurance provides coverage for one year at a time, with the option to renew each year. This type of policy does not offer lifetime coverage or protection extending to age 100, making it fundamentally different from limited payment whole life insurance.
