Butter has higher levels of saturated fats in it than canola oil.

Reason: butter (an animal fat) is known to be higher in saturated fat than vegetable oils like canola oil. The other choices require unwarranted assumptions about the twins' cholesterol or about specific minor fat components not mentioned.
