Answer to Question 1

D
Individuals with a healthy and positive body image evaluate themselves realistically and accept their positive and negative attributes. They may or may not adopt healthy lifestyle behaviors, achieve a healthy weight and body composition. They will probably tend to be less prejudiced against overweight and underweight individuals, but this is not necessarily so.
