Answer 2

Answer:

D. Teens should use the media to figure out what body type is healthy.

Explanation:

Adolescence is a phase of discovery and identification of one's own body, while hormonal effervescence occurs that affects the mood and desires of adolescents. In this phase it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, but do not use comparisons with other bodies, because each person has their own body structure. Thus, it is not advisable for adolescents to use the media as a body reference. This is not appropriate because the media has predetermined parameters of the ideal body image that are sometimes unreachable. This would make teenagers unnecessarily frustrated.
