Answer:

The correct answer is option C. Prevent the body from absorbing the oxygen.

Explanation:

An asphyxiant is a vapor or gas that can result in death or unconsciousness due to suffocation. Such suffocation is termed as asphyxiation.

It takes place because of very less oxygen present in air or vapor which prevent the individual body to absorb oxygen. Major asphyxiants are nitrogen, hilum, propane, methane and carbon dioxide.

This, the correct answer is option c.

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

C. Body composition

Explanation:

by elimination- here are the definitions of each:

<u>Physical agility</u>: Agility is defined as “a skill-related component of physical fitness that relates to the ability to rapidly change the position of the entire body in space with speed and accuracy.”

<u>Muscular endurance:</u> Endurance is the ability of an organism to exert itself and remain active for a long period of time, as well as its ability to resist, withstand, recover from, and have immunity to trauma, wounds, or fatigue. It is usually used in aerobic or anaerobic exercise.

<u>Body composition:</u> In physical fitness, body composition is used to describe the percentages of fat, bone, water and muscle in human bodies. Because muscular tissue takes up less space in the body than fat tissue, body composition, as well as weight, determines leanness.

<u>Cardiovascular fitness: </u> Cardiovascular fitness refers to the physical work capacity of an individual, in the form of amount of oxygen capacity per kilogram of body weight over time (mL/kg/min)

therefore the odd one out and your answer, is C.

Is physical exercise essential for adolescemts ? give any two points​
Anika [276]
—Exercising can help you look better. People who exercise burn more calories and look more toned than those who don't. In fact, exercise is one of the most important parts of keeping your body at a healthy weight.
—Exercise helps people lose weight and lower the risk of some diseases. Exercising to maintain a healthy weight decreases a person's risk of developing certain diseases, including type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure. These diseases, which used to be found mostly in adults, are becoming more common in teens.
—Exercise can help a person age well. This may not seem important now, but your body will thank you later. Women are especially prone to a condition called osteoporosis (a weakening of the bones) as they get older. Studies have found that weight-bearing exercise — like jumping, running, or brisk walking — can help girls and boys keep their bones strong.
