Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

Both atherosclerosis and arteriosclerosis refer to the diseases of the arteries, however, the cause of the conditions varies. In atherosclerosis, in the inner walls of the arteries, deposition of fats takes place, which builds up with time. These deposits of fats are known as plaques, and they generally originate due to bad lifestyle and eating habits.  

If the condition is not treated, it could result in strokes or heart attacks. On the other hand, arteriosclerosis refers to the condition in hardening of the walls of arteries takes place. This generally takes place in older adults and is an unavoidable condition.

Atherosclerosis is the narrowing of the artery because of plaque buildup. Arteriosclerosis is the stiffening or hardening of artery walls.

Charla works at a clothing store. Her pay is calculated using the formula
aleksandr82 [10.1K]
Do you want the equation solved ? So, since the pay is dependent on the day she worked you just have to plug in a number. Let’s take 2 for an example 55(2) +0.15= $110.15

However, you didn’t give me a number to work with. If there is one though just plug it in to the d, )days she worked) and you will find out how much her total pay is based on the days she worked.


Hope this helps! Please mark be brainlest >.<

Which challenges do countries face in limiting the spread of communicable diseases? Check all that apply.
Stels [109]

I would say #1 #3 #4 are the most reasonable options. Healthy food doesn't really affect the communication of a disease and ultimately does nothing to change it. Eating French fries isn't going to give you malaria, but an increase in migration of infected animals will. Especially those who are sold illegally or trafficked across borders. And people not taking their vaccinations has caused an increase in illnesses we have gotten rid of years ago, like polio. #3 is also reasonable since people who travel all over the world, even if they don't get sick, might carry foreign illnesses that perhaps other countries don't have vaccinations for and infect others.
