Answer 1

D. There is a correlation between weight and classroom performance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Students who weight more are more likely to live in a family which possess abundant resources. This mean that Weight could be an indicator of proper nutrition and wealth.

Growing up in a house with more wealth and proper nutrition will enhance the brain's performance and expose the students with additional learning activities outside school that could make the result of their study become better.
