Your DNA determines how many muscle fibers a person is born with. This number never changes cause one can't make more muscle fibers during their lifetime. With more muscle fibers, one has the potential to be stronger.
It is an acquired trait because you could train your muscles to become bigger. When you train, for example resistance training, your muscle produces more myofilaments which increases their diameter. This is why you develop large muscles when you train.

Hope this helped!

Answer:

The size of the muscle is partly dependent on the DNA and exercise.

This is because DNA traits is actually responsible for how a muscle formed in the body. This trait is usually gotten from the parents of the offspring.

In the same vein, exercises can also be responsible for the size of an individual’s muscle. Exercises help in the expansion and building of muscle tissues which makes it bigger.

xenn [34]

When the patient who is nothing by mouth (NPO) (no food or fluids allowed) develops an adverse reaction to a new intravenous (IV) drug, then the nurse will take action like recording the reaction, stopping the further administration of the drug and notify the health care provider.

Nothing by mouth (NPO) is a period of time in which the patient is advised not to eat or drink anything. Doctors suggest avoiding eating food or drinking water during the medical or surgical procedure to ensure the correct report or successful operation of the patient.

NPO is a common practice, and it instructs that patients should not take solid and liquid before receiving general anaesthesia.

How does geographic distribution of organisms support evolutionary theory?
Serga [27]
Because the organism is distributed across the world, and isn't seen anymore, scientists can conclude tat they must have evolved. They can compare one species to the fossils they may have found, and determine that they were related. Then by looking at the species on another part of the world compare the same fossils to other animals and determine that they are similar, sharing a common ancestor.
