Fatty tissue is healthy to a certain point. anything past that point can contribute to many health challenges, including diabetes, hypertension, etc.

Body composition is more important than weight because two people can look like they are same size and weight but one can have more fat tissues than the other. In addition, muscle weighs more than fat so a body builder will weigh heavier than someone with same physical dimensions.

Body composition is the accurate representation of persons health because it's the most accurate as far as fatty tissue v muscle is concerned.

Drive-reduction theory, which is a major theory of motivation, suggests that when there is an Homeostatic imbalance, needs are created, people perform actions (i.e their behaviour changes) to restore the body's ideal state, because of the need to restore balance.

Can someone give me a quick but detailed answer? <br> I need both of them! Thanks :)
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

1; The fact that your arm has two bones splits the energy in two, and each bone that snaps reduces the total energy of the force by a lot. The less energy is travelling through your body, the less damage your internal organs will receive. That's part of why they occur closer to the extremities.

Explanation:

2; The ribs are separate because if they were one solid plate and they'd get smashed and shoot shrapnels into your lung. ... If the bony thorax were solid instead of having gaps, you wouldn't be able to breathe because your lungs couldn't expand when they fill with air as the diaphragm descends.
