The bar charts illustrate data regarding the percentage of overweight
boys
and girls
whose ages varied between 12 and 19 in terms of their ethnicities for 2004 and 2014.Units are measured in percentages.
Overall
,what stands out from the graph is that the highest number of obesity for boys
was observed among the Hispanic ones.Moreover
,girls
whose ethnicity was non-Hispanic Black were more inclined to be obese.
Looking into detail,in 2004,the figures for all overweight boys
were almost the same (around 12%).After a decade, the share of obesity among Non-Historic Black and Hispanic boys
increased almost twofold and stood at one-fifth and 27% respectively,whereas
the figure for Non-Hispanic whites grew only by 5%.
Regarding the other chart,the percentage of Non-Historic Black girls
who were obese was twice as much as that of Non-Historic White ones in 2014.(14% and 29% respectively).Meanwhile,there was little between the figures for Hispanic girls
in 2004 and 2014 (12% and 17% respectively).Submitted by Name_1234 on
