select the correct answer.
during a visit to the local clinic, megan was informed that her body mass index is in the obese range. currently, megan is active for only about 10 minutes a day and mostly eats foods high in saturated fats. which lifestyle plan was most likely recommended for megan to improve her health?

a. one meal a day and playing sports three times a week
b. a low - fat diet and a 30 - minute brisk walk every day
c. a low - fat diet and no change in her activity levels
d. rigorous daily exercise with no change in her diet

Explanation:

Megan has a high BMI (obese range) and eats high - saturated - fat foods while being minimally active. A low - fat diet helps reduce calorie intake (since saturated fats are high in calories). A 30 - minute brisk walk daily increases physical activity, which burns calories. Option A (one meal a day) is an extreme and unhealthy diet. Option C (no activity change) won't help with calorie burning. Option D (no diet change) ignores the high - fat food intake.

Answer:

B. a low - fat diet and a 30 - minute brisk walk every day
