Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Healthy eating and regular exercise are essential for reducing the risk of chronic disease. Many health agencies have published guidelines or recommendations to meet these goals.

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale: Glucose provides energy for anaerobic exercise. Anaerobic exercises are those that involve short bursts of energy expenditure that last up to 2 minutes. Aerobic exercises are those that require oxygen and metabolism of glucose and fat. Long-distance running is classified as an aerobic exercise and sprinting for short distances is typically an anaerobic exercise.
