Answer

Brief Explanations:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option:

  • Option A: "parents with heart diseases" is a genetic/family history factor, not a lifestyle factor people can change. Eliminate A.
  • Option B: "a family history of diabetes" is genetic and "lack of energy" is a symptom, not a changeable lifestyle factor. Eliminate B.
  • Option C: "knowledge of common risk factors" can be acquired (a lifestyle - related choice to learn), "level of physical activity" is a lifestyle factor people can change, and "ways of reacting to conflict" (e.g., choosing healthy coping mechanisms) is a changeable lifestyle - related behavior. All are lifestyle factors people can change.
  • Option D: "changing the images in the media" is not a personal lifestyle factor an individual can change on their own (it's a media - industry - level change). Eliminate D.

Answer:

C. knowledge of common risk factors, level of physical activity, ways of reacting to conflict
