Answer:

True

Explanation:

<em>The latter studies truly showed that some factors other than genetic predisposition play a role in obesity.</em>

The composition of the genome of an individual might predispose such individual to a higher risk of being obese. However, that such individual will become obese depends on some other factors, the most important being the kind of lifestyle the individual lives.

A lifestyle such as eating foods high in fat content, not eating adequate fruits, not eating eating adequate vegetables and drinking a lot of alcohol can cause someone to be obese apart from genetic predisposition.
