Answer to Question 1

C
The amount of physical activity needed to maintain physical fitness depends on the intensity of the activity. The more intense the activity, the shorter the amount of time needed to maintain fit-ness. Time of day, ambient temperature, and flexibility of the individual do not affect the amount of physical activity needed to maintain physical fitness.

B, C, D
