Several factors can play a role in gaining and retaining excess weight. These include diet, lack of exercise, environmental factors, and genetics. II. There are a number of scientifically proven ways you can keep the weight off, ranging from exercising, a proper diet to controlling stress.

Identify whether the provided reasons offer a causal mechanism (Why/How) or an independent observation related to the statement.
Identify whether the provided reasons offer a causal mechanism (Why/How) or an independent observation related to the statement.
Evaluate Reason I
Reason I provides the causative factors (diet, genetics, environment) that lead to the 'abnormal or excessive fat accumulation' mentioned in the statement. It explains the 'how/why' of the condition.
Evaluate Reason II
Reason II explains how to mitigate the risks associated with obesity (the 'health risk' aspect). Providing ways to manage the condition relates directly to the definition that it is a health risk.
Conclusion
Both reasons add necessary explanatory depth to the definition provided in the statement; hence, both are valid supporting reasons.
A: Only I is incorrect because II is also relevant. B: Only II is incorrect because I is also relevant. D: Neither is incorrect because both provide relevant contextual information.
C is correct because both statements provide logically consistent supporting information that explains the causes and management related to the definition of obesity.
In 'Statement and Reason' questions, look for whether the options offer causative factors, necessary conditions, or preventive measures that validate the core assertion of the statement.
