Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
A BMI of 25 to 29 is considered overweight.

Answer to Question 2

A
For adults who are unable to stand, height may be estimated by measuring knee height. Stated height is not necessarily accurate. Head circumference is used to measure growth in children, but is not related to height and is not usually used in adults. Wrist circumference is related to body frame size, but not height.
