Question

What is the most likely beneficial opportunity provided by walking?

Responses

a. decreasing physical education requirements needed for graduation

b. improving organizational and time management skills

c. quickly increasing muscle mass in chest, arms, and legs

d. building relationships with friends and family members

Answer 1

Option C seems to be the most likely, though it requires some nuance to confirm its accuracy.

Step-by-step explanation:

To my knowledge, the PE requirements for a graduation are based upon attendance and grade, not necessarily performance, so option A seems unlikely.

Option B is plausible as scheduling time to walk and organizing your tasks in such a way to allow for walks to take place are beneficial. However, it is not the best option available.

Option C sounds like the best answer as walking helps stimulate certain muscles in your lower extremities as well as your abdomen thereby increasing their muscle mass (Jones, 2022). However, this process is not quick and I am uncertain, without simultaneous weight training, how this would increase muscle mass in the chest and arms.

Option D is plausible if you walk with friends and family members, just like any other activity enjoyed with friends and family members. However, it is not the most likely because people walk alone all the time!
