Explanation:

First Question:

A balanced meal typically includes essential nutrients from sources like protein (for growth/repair), vegetables (vitamins, fiber), and whole grains (complex carbs, fiber). Processed sugar is added, lacks nutrients, and isn't part of a balanced meal.

To create a personal plan for fitness, nutrition, and sleep, the first logical step is to know your current habits (e.g., exercise frequency, diet, sleep duration). Talking to friends, taking a quiz, or writing a journal don't provide the baseline info as assessing current habits does.

Answer:

c. Processed sugar
