Answer:

TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

— Though they appear at the opposite end of the spectrum, being overweight and being malnourished (and thus underweight) share characteristics in common. Primary among these shared characteristics is that both conditions increase children's risk of developing serious diseases. Both conditions can also negatively affect children's physical, emotional, and social development.
