Question 2 • Health Science Concepts A1 – EDGNTY-83861 26-27

Fionna was told by her doctor to eat more foods that are high in calcium and potassium. Which statement best explains why Fionna’s doctor made this recommendation?

Answer
A
Fionna’s bones are weak and break easily.
B
Fionna’s bone marrow is not making enough blood.
C
Fionna’s joints are swollen and do not move properly.
D
Fionna’s tendons are strained, and she cannot walk.

Explanation

Calcium helps build and maintain strong bones, so eating more calcium-rich foods can help address weak bones that break easily. Potassium supports normal muscle and nerve function, but the statement most directly connected to getting more calcium is that Fionna’s bones are weak.
