Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
For substantial health benefits, adults should do at least 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) a week of moderate-intensity aerobic physical activity. Aerobic activity should be performed in episodes of at least 10 minutes and spread throughout the week.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
The formula to calculate BMI is weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared or weight in pounds divided by height in inches squared multiplied by 703 . First, convert the 97 kg to pounds by multiplying by 2.2 (97  2.2 = 213.4); and then 213.4 / 5625  703 = 26.67 or rounded up to 27.
