Question
- A. Increased economic growth
- B. Improved health outcomes
- C. Undernutrition
- D. Higher education levels
Answer
The correct answer is Undernutrition.
Explanation
The correct option is Undernutrition. Undernutrition is correct because it directly matches the approved learning objective to describe global patterns of calorie intake and food supply. This belongs to Food (optional route) within Section C: The challenge of resource management, so the answer must stay focused on the geographical process, evidence, place, or impact named by the curriculum. The other options are weaker because they move away from Food (optional route), reverse the geographical relationship, or make a broader claim than the objective supports.
Common mistake
Misunderstanding Calorie Intake
Students often confuse calorie intake with food supply, thinking they are the same concept.
Clarify that calorie intake refers to the amount of energy consumed from food, while food supply relates to the availability and distribution of food resources globally.
