rewatch

Explanation:

To determine the percentage of kids (ages 2 - 19) who are overweight or obese, we refer to health - related statistics. It is a well - known fact in the field of health (related to Medicine and Health, a subfield of Natural Science) that approximately 1/3 (or 33.3%) of children and adolescents in this age group are either overweight or obese. The option “1/4” (25%) is too low, “nearly all” is an over - exaggeration, and “1/2” (50%) is also higher than the actual documented percentage.

Answer:

B. 1/3
