Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The child's intake may be impacted by additional factors that include food texture (they like crisp textures), temperature (do not like hot foods), odor and flavor (should be mild), or appearance (do not usually like gravies or sauces), and they like foods that are familiar to them. The atmosphere at mealtime also greatly affects the child's appetite.
