Answer: a

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The author includes the report's findings in paragraph 18 to D. to support the claim that the teens who would benefit most from playing sports may not have the money to participate.

The author includes the report's findings in paragraph 18 to support the claim that the teens who would benefit most from playing sports may not have the money to participate. The report finds that "though ACEs occur across income levels, kids raised in low-income families are more likely to have more of them."

Also, the report finds that adolescents who experienced childhood trauma were more likely to have parents with lower educational attainment and to live in single-parent households, both factors associated with low income.
