Answer 1

If your choices are:
a. Dairy

b. Protein

c. Unsaturated fats

d. Vegetables

Then the answer is letter d.

From the sources I had searched, it said that MyPlate recommends the Americans make half of their plate fruits and vegetables. Dairy, proteins, and unsaturated fats are important components of a healthy diet but they should be consumed in smaller quantities than vegetables.
