Question

1 — adult (20-39)
learning objective: determine the nutritional needs of young adults.
which of the following would be an appropriate calorie range for most young women?
a.) 2,900–3,200 per day
b.) 1,200–1,600 per day
c.) 1,800–2,400 per day
d.) 2,500–2,800 per day

Explanation:

The appropriate calorie range for most young women (20 - 39 years) is typically around 1,800 - 2,400 calories per day. Option a (2,900 - 3,200) is too high (more typical for active young men), option b (1,200 - 1,600) is too low (may be for very low - activity or weight - loss - focused, not general young women), and option d (2,500 - 2,800) is also higher than the general range for young women.

Answer:

c.) 1,800–2,400 per day
