Question

which is an example of the consequences of unhealthy eating?
an adult female prevents bone loss by eating adequate amounts of vitamins and minerals
an active young adult is placed on medication to treat a sprained ankle.
an obese young adult has been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
an adult male has surgery to treat a disease that his parent passed on to him.

Explanation:

• Option A describes a positive outcome of healthy eating (preventing bone loss), not a consequence of unhealthy eating.
• Option B involves a sprained ankle, which is an injury, not related to unhealthy eating.
• Option C: Obesity (often linked to unhealthy eating) is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes, so this is a consequence of unhealthy eating.
• Option D describes a hereditary disease, not related to unhealthy eating.

Answer:

C. An obese young adult has been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
