Correct Answer
C. 6

Explanation
Eating 6 small meals a day allows the body to better digest the food and absorb its nutrients. This in turn allows the body to work more efficiently and burn more calories throughout the day. Eating more food than your body can handle at one time will cause it to slow down and store more fat as a result.
