Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

The adolescent responds to peer pressure to determine the types of foods consumed (chips, colas, candy, etc.), and the lifestyle of a teen (always on the go) may result in many skipped meals. The elderly are often alone, and mealtimes can be unpleasant and lonely, resulting in skipped meals and in eating poorly balanced meals. Living conditions often do not encourage a healthy appetite. Financially, some elderly may not be able to afford fresh fruits and vegetables or the protein sources of foods.
