Your body mass index converts the food you need into fuel.

a. True

b. False

The answer is false.

Body mass index (BMI) is a measure of the body based on your weight in relation to your height. It is a value which you can calculate as the body mass (weight) divided by the square of the body height, and then categorize that person as underweight, normal weight, overweight, or obese (there is accepted BMI ranges for that).
