a. historical information
b. physical examination
c. anthropometric data
d. laboratory tests

Explanation:

Anthropometric data refers to measurements of the human body, such as height and weight. Since the question is about a child's weight and height (which are anthropometric measurements), this is the relevant type of assessment. Historical information would be about past events related to health (e.g., medical history), a physical examination is a hands - on check by a medical professional (not just measurements), and laboratory tests involve analyzing biological samples (e.g., blood tests).

Answer:

C. Anthropometric data
