Answer:

B. An individual's height-weight ratio

Explanation:

I remember getting these in elementary. Body Mass Index tells you how much you should weigh for your height.

Answer:

B. an individual's height-weight ratio

Explanation:

Body Mass Index or BMI is found out by dividing the body mass in kg by the square of the body height in m². Hence its value is derived from the height and weight of a person and depends on an individual's height-weight ratio.

It is used to classify people as underweight, normal, overweight or obese. The accepted classification is as follows:

  • Below 18.5 kg/m² : underweight
  • 18.5 - 25 kg/m² : normal weight
  • 25 - 30 kg/m² : overweight
  • over 30 kg/m² : obese
