Explanation:

To determine the indicator of unhealthy social media use, we analyze each option:

• Volunteering at an animal shelter shows engagement in real - world positive activities, not a sign of unhealthy online time.
• Taking an online class is a productive use of online time for learning, not unhealthy.
• Contacting a distant cousin is a normal and positive social interaction enabled by online platforms.
• Being disconnected from real - world peers implies that excessive online time (on social media) is affecting in - person relationships, which is a sign of unhealthy online time.
