Jon has just finished eating an appetizer, a salad, bread, and a large plate of lasagna. He feels ...

Jon has just finished eating an appetizer, a salad, bread, and a large plate of lasagna. He feels very full. However, a waiter then brings a platter of tempting desserts to the table. Which of the following statements is most accurate about Jon's response to the dessert?

▸ Jon will only order the dessert if his ventromedial hypothalamus is not functioning correctly and therefore does not send the appropriate satiety signals.

▸ Despite messages of fullness from his brain, Jon may be tempted to order dessert because the sweet taste of the cake would offer a novel taste and we have a natural preference for sweet, high-fat foods.

▸ Jon will not order dessert because he no longer feels hungry because people do not eat unless they experience physiological sensations of hunger.

▸ Jon will likely order dessert if he suffers from a metabolic disease such as diabetes.
