Answer: Some foods are more readily available.

Step-by-step explanation:

The social determination of food reflects the availability of food and the types of foods which are beneficial for growth and improving nutritional status of the person. The food insecurity and inaccessibility of the food are likely to affect the nutritional status of the family and can lead to mal-nourishment, may also be responsible for diseases, increase in incidences of still births and congenital defects in new borns.
