b. half of betty’s portion size
c. as much as betty’s portion size
d. three- fourth of betty’s portion size
e. two-thirds of betty’s portion size

The correct answer is A. One-fourth of Betty’s portion size

Explanation:

According to nutrition guidelines, toddlers (children between 1 and 3 years old) should eat around 1/4 or one quarter of adults or regular portion sizes. For example, instead of giving 1 complete slice of bread parents should give toddlers a 1/4 slice of bread. This can be explained as even if toddlers are growing and developing, their bodies are still small and cannot handle a lot of food. Also, an excess of food can lead to digestion issues or excess of certain substances. Besides this, the portion size increases over time, for example, pre-schoolers (4 year-olds) should eat about 1/3 of portion size. Thus, Betty's child should eat one-fourth of Betty's portion size as this is the most recommended portion during this stage.
