Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Iron: Children under age 2 consume more milk instead of eating other food sources with iron. Adolescents lack a nutritional diet because they eat more junk food than regular meals. Pregnant women need increased iron because the developing fetus depletes their blood cells. Women with heavy menstrual flow are at risk for decreased iron levels. Diet plans may vary, but clients should be encouraged to eat foods high in iron such as lean meats, poultry, fish, enriched breads, legumes, leafy green vegetables, dried fruits, and nuts.
