(A) The present requirement of food around the world is greater than that it will be in the future.
(B) A better distribution system will eliminate any possibility of a shortfall in the world’s food production.
(C) The production of food world over will continue to be sufficient to meet or exceed needs.
(D) There will be an improvement in the distribution of the world’s existing food supply.
(E) There will be no world hunger crisis in the future.

(A) No relationship exists between the amount of time spent crying and psychological disturbances.
