A) Body fat percentage
Rationale: Body fat percentage directly quantifies the proportion of fat vs. lean tissue and is the best indicator of body composition. Body density and body volume are intermediate measurements used to calculate percent body fat (e.g., via hydrostatic weighing or Bod Pod), while BMI is only a crude height‑to‑weight index and does not measure body composition.
