The answer is B. Literacy rates are increasing in the region, and the gap between men and women is decreasing. Annual regional-level literacy estimates based on national data and the Unesco Institute for Statistics projections from 1990 to 2016 tell us that Eastern and South-Eastern Asia, Southern Asia, and Northern Africa and Western Asia have made the greatest progress in improving adult literacy over the past 26 years .
According to the Fact Sheet No. 45 dated September 2017 of the Unesco Institute for Statistics, Northern Africa and Western Asia literacy rate went from 64% to 81. The youth literacy rate increased in Northern Africa and Western Asia from 80% to 90% and sub-Saharan Africa from 65% to 75%. Female literacy rates-lower than male literacy rates at the start of the period - generally grew faster than male literacy rates between 1990 and 2016.Thus, the gap between men and women has decreased in all regions over the past 26 years.
'Provides nutrients to the ACL' is not a function of the meniscus.
The meniscus is a C-shaped piece of tough with rubbery cartilage that acts as a shock absorber between the shinbone and the thighbone. It can be torn if you suddenly twist your knee while bearing weight on it.
The function of meniscus include- they act as shock absorbers and stabilize the knee. The meniscus act to disperse the weight of the body and reduce friction during movement. The menisci increase stability for femorotibial articulation, absorb shock, provide lubrication and nutrients to the knee joint.
Thus, the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) of the knee receives its nutrition from a direct vascular supply, so the meniscus cannot provide nutrients to the ACL.
Hence, option B is correct.

Answer:
The correct answer is: Foreclosure.
Explanation:
Identity foreclosure is a concept proposed by psychologist Erikson, and it refers to a step in identity formation where an individual decides to adopt certain traits and characteristics because they are familiar to them, but not because he/she already explored other options.
In this particular case, Michael is an adolescent whose parents have always expected him to become a lawyer. Without considering any other options throughout high school or college, Michael applies to law school.
To Erikson, Michael has made a foreclosure identity choice.
