The correct answer is Option D: 3hours or more.

The average 8 to 18 year-old spends 3 hours or more per day on average in front of a screen doing very little to no physical activity.

<h3>How does screen time affect children’s physical activity?</h3>
  • Regular exercise reduces the risk of obesity and diseases in children and adolescence.
  • However, due to recent advances in technology and the advent of mobile phones, TVs, laptops, children spend most of their time on-screen remaining physically inactive.
  • Researchers have identified a relationship between low levels of physical activity and high screen time especially among children aged 10-16 years.
  • Children spending massive amounts of time on media have reduced physical activity, thus increased obesity and diseases.
  • Spending more time on-screen results in behavioral problems, psychological issues, attention problems and affects physical health.
  • Parents need to set limits to their children for using phones and encourage them to eat healthy and remain physically active.

Which part of the female reproductive system protects ova?
Novay_Z [31]
<span>The ovaries produce the female egg cells, called the ova or oocytes. The oocytes are then transported to the fallopian tube where fertilization by a sperm may occur. The fertilized egg then moves to the uterus, where the uterine lining has thickened in response to the normal hormones of the reproductive cycle. Hope this helps.</span>
