Question

why do some say that video games, even active ones, are a poor replacement for actual physical activity?
a. video games are innately bad for children. c. video games demand only a fraction of the
energy output that live sports do.
b. children will cheat and not move enough. d. none of the above

please select the best answer from the choices provided

a
b
c
d

Explanation:

Option a is incorrect because "innately bad" is an unsubstantiated generalization. Option b is not a widely cited reason for video games being a poor replacement for physical activity. Option c aligns with common arguments: even active video games typically require less energy expenditure than live sports, making them a less effective substitute for actual physical activity.

Answer:

C. Video games demand only a fraction of the energy output that live sports do.
