Answer:

D. 70%

Step-by-step explanation:

I took the test and I put A (35%) and it was WRONG. On my exam, the choices were 25, 35, 45, and 70. Here is what the textbook says: "In the United States, the prevalence of overweight and obesity has increased dramatically over the past three decades, jumping from 47 percent of the adult population to about 70 percent!"
