A A 15-year-old has special nutritional needs during pregnancy, but she is not at the
highest risk for deficiency.
B The adolescent who is pregnant and underweight is most at risk, because she is already
deficient in nutrition and must now supply the nutritional intake for both herself and her
fetus.
C An overweight pregnant teen is at risk for deficiency, but is not at the highest risk.
Being underweight is the most risky because she is already deficient.
D A 16-year-old has special nutritional needs during pregnancy, but she is not at the
highest risk for deficiency.
