Correct Answer

A. 20km per hour

Explanation

Cycling at a moderate commuting pace typically involves maintaining a steady speed that is neither too slow nor too fast. This speed allows for efficient movement while still being manageable for longer distances. A speed of 20km per hour is a reasonable estimate for a moderate commuting pace, as it allows for a decent amount of distance to be covered within a reasonable amount of time.

Correct Answer

A. Cycling

Explanation

Cycling is considered a low impact sport because it puts minimal stress on the joints and muscles. Unlike jogging or tennis, which involve repetitive impact and high-intensity movements, cycling is gentler on the body. The smooth, circular motion of pedaling reduces the risk of injury and allows for a longer duration of exercise without excessive strain. Additionally, cycling can be easily adjusted to accommodate different fitness levels and is suitable for individuals of all ages.
