b

Answer to Question 2

Many reasons-these people may actively avoid foods with calcium and vitamin D due to their increase fat content. This may result in bones that are already less dense at a younger age. Also, the lower forces of less body weight put less stress on the bones and may not allow the bones to model to maintain their density as well as those of a heavier person.
