Question

question 5
nutritional causes of diseases or disorders are a result of ______.
□ microscopic living things such as bacteria and viruses
□ exposure to harmful aspects of the environment
□ lack or excess of foods
□ physical damage to the body

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option:

• "Microscopic living things such as bacteria and viruses" cause infectious diseases, not nutritional - related disorders.
• "Exposure to harmful aspects of the environment" leads to environmental - related health issues, not nutritional.
• "Lack or excess of foods" directly relates to nutrition. Nutritional diseases/disorders occur when there is an imbalance (lack or excess) in food intake, affecting nutrient levels in the body.
• "Physical damage to the body" causes injuries or trauma - related issues, not nutritional.

Answer:

C. lack or excess of foods
