Answer:

Option E, nutrition
Option F, activity level

Explanation:

Risk factors for diseases and conditions that can be controlled by the patient are known as modifiable risk factors. These mainly encapsulate lifestyle choices, such as nutrition, alcohol consumption and substance use, and physical activity.

Risk factors for these same diseases and conditions that cannot be controlled by the patient, making them the opposite of modifiable, are the nonmodifiable risk factors. These are aspects of the patient that cannot be changed through lifestyle choices. These include age, race, sex, family history, and the build of one's frame (e.g. wider hips, broader shoulders, larger bust).

Because nutrition and activity level can be changed, these risk factors are modifiable and thus, can be controlled, options, E and F. Without acknowledgement of nuance, one's general nutritional quality can be controlled, because the individual chooses what to eat. Same can apply to activity level as the individual decides their exercise.
