Answer 1

I think it may be A.

Answer 2

D) number of low-birth weight infants

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of babies with low birth weight makes it possible to make inferences of the health and nutrition of a population if, for example, many children with low birth weight are born, it is inferred that mothers have not had a diet based on the resources necessary for healthy growth of the fetus , in the same way if a baby is born with low weight it is very likely that during his life he presents several diseases as well as his offspring.
