Question

according to the world health organization (who), which individual would be considered obese?
malka, who is 7 years of age and weighs 64 pounds
micah, who is 42 years of age and has a bmi of 31
devonte, who at 63 tall has a bmi of 24
damon, who at 54 tall is 21 pounds overweight

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The World Health Organization (WHO) defines obesity in adults as a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher. Malka's weight alone without height data can't confirm obesity. Devonte's BMI of 24 is in the normal range (18.5 - 24.9). Damon's "21 pounds overweight" is too vague without BMI calculation. Micah's BMI of 31 meets the WHO's obesity criterion (BMI ≥ 30).

Answer:

Micah, who is 42 years of age and has a BMI of 31.
