Answer 1

Rita consumed at least 80% of her a) iron needs, but not for folate, vitamin C, or calcium.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information provided, Rita consumed at least 80% of her needs for Iron as she consumed 45% of the recommended daily value. For Folate, Rita's consumption is not indicated, so we cannot determine if she consumed at least 80% of her needs.
