d. terrence exercises for 30 minutes a day, eats well, and enjoys new challenges.

Explanation:

• Option A: April has low self - esteem (poor mental health) and is working on making friends (social aspect not balanced with others), so not a good balance.
• Option B: Barbara plays hockey (physical) and eats well (physical), but has frequent conflicts with teammates (poor social health), so not balanced.
• Option C: Marta has a large circle of friends (social) but eats primarily junk food (poor physical health), so not balanced.
• Option D: Terrence exercises for 30 minutes a day (physical), eats well (physical), and enjoys new challenges (mental/emotional). This shows a balance of physical, social (implicitly, as a well - rounded person with good mental health is likely to have good social interactions too), and mental/emotional health.

Answer:

D. Terrence exercises for 30 minutes a day, eats well, and enjoys new challenges.
