Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
The lunch of tuna, whole wheat bread, apple, and milk are more nutrient-dense than the other menu choices. The others contain items that contain empty calories, excessive fats, and sugars.

Many factors contribute to overweight in children. These factors include sedentary lifestyles, excessive portion sizes, and consumption of high-fat foods, as well as eating more snacks, eating more food away from home, spending large amounts of time watching television or playing computer games, genetics, and lack of adult supervision after school.
