If a girl receives lower priority in nutrition and health, what effect can this have on her education?

Correct answer: It can negatively affect learning and attendance

Answer: A, it can negatively affect learning and attendance. Adequate nutrition and good health support energy, concentration, regular attendance, and readiness to learn. If a girl is frequently ill, weak, hungry, or unable to obtain needed care, she may miss school, find it harder to concentrate, or participate less effectively. This does not mean that every health difficulty will automatically produce the same educational result; it means that unequal access creates a possible barrier and deserves attention. Option A uses the careful phrase “can negatively affect,” so it is correct. Option B says education will always improve, which is unsupported and opposite to the likely risk. Option C falsely separates health from learning. Option D claims attendance will rise automatically, which has no logical basis. Memory cue: healthy, nourished learners are generally better prepared to attend and learn; health equity supports education equity.
