Jameela is reading a magazine article. Read the following excerpt from the article:

Five days a week, Henry Zimmerman used to ride the elevator to the sixth floor and spend all day sitting at his computer. On weekends, he felt too tired to do more than watch TV. Most of the time he was anxious, and he was frustrated that his clothes were tight. In addition, his doctor informed him that he had high blood pressure, which could lead to heart trouble.
At his doctor’s advice, Henry began exercising. At work, he took the stairs instead of the elevator. During his lunch break, he went for a run. On weekends, he played pickup basketball at the park. Slowly, he gained energy, his anxiety decreased, and his clothes fit him better. At his next doctor’s appointment, he found out his blood pressure had decreased to a healthy number.

Which statement describes the relationship between the two paragraphs in this excerpt?
A. The first paragraph describes the first step in Henry’s lifestyle change, and the second paragraph presents the next step.
B. The first paragraph describes the cause of Henry’s inactive lifestyle, and the second paragraph explains the effect of the inactive lifestyle.
C. The first paragraph describes the problem—Henry’s inactive lifestyle—and the second paragraph suggests how an active lifestyle might solve Henry’s problem.
