breastfed infants are ______ than babies who are fed infant formula.
o more likely to have diarrhea
o less likely to have sickle cell disease
o more likely to have respiratory infections
o less likely to develop asthma and allergies

Explanation:

Breast milk contains antibodies and other immune - enhancing factors. Formula - fed infants are at a higher risk of various infections. Sickle cell disease is a genetic disorder, not related to feeding method. Breastfed infants are less likely to have diarrhea (due to protective factors in breast milk) and less likely to have respiratory infections (again due to immune - boosting components). And they are also less likely to develop asthma and allergies as breast milk can help in immune system regulation.

Answer:

less likely to develop asthma and allergies
