the watch television, even though her husband often eats high-fat, sugary

a. the genetic factor of preference for sweet and salty tastes.
b. the influence of ethnicity on preference for sour tastes.
c. the children’s weights when they were born and their weights now.
d. the environmental effects of parental food choices and television watching. –
~ANSWER D
Because young children spend so much time with their families, their parents’
food choices have a major impact on their own future food choices. Preventing
young children from eating while watching television will have only shortterm impact and they are likely to join their father in eating high-fat, highsugar snacks. The father’s food preferences are probably influenced by
genetics and ethnicity and it may be interesting to find out if the children
currently have a healthy weight for their height (although there birth weight
is probably not relevant), but these have less immediate impact on the
nutritional health of this family.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

public health efforts listed are not specifically aimed at people who have an
economic disadvantage.
