Body fat in humans includes both essential and storage body fat. Essential body fat is needed to maintain life and is generally

higher for women than men. Storage body fat is the type that accumulates throughout the body and is similar for both men and women. When storage body fat increases above a healthy range, disease risk increases. However, the location of the stored body fat is even more important for determining disease risk than the amount of fat in an individual.
Higher levels of visceral fat will _______ an individual's risk of developing many chronic diseases, including type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

Answer:

Increase

Explanation:

Visceral fat is a type of storage body fat. It is stored in the abdominal cavity and often surrounds many vital internal organs like stomach and liver. Over the time it forms a layer around these organs and also deposits in arteries which can cause many problems.

It can lead to insulin resistance which increases the risk for type 2 diabetes. It can also lead to other chronic conditions like heart disease and stroke. Hence, its increased amount is not good for the body. It can be decreased by proper diet, exercise and decreasing stress.

Kamila [148]

Answer:

The answer is 83.38%.

Explanation:

The probability of young children having blood levels that impair their neurological development is given as 60% in the question. To find the probability of at least 5 children out of 10 in a sample having said blood levels, we need to use the binomial probability.

n represents the total number of children in the sample so n = 10 and p is the probability of the children having blood levels causing the problem which is 60% so p = 0.6.

We want the probability of it being observed for 5 or more children and that is P(x\geq 5). If we subtract the P( x\leq 4) from 1, which is the probability of not observing the condition in 5 or more children, we will have the P(x\geq 5).

1 - P(x\leq 4) = 1 - pbinom(4, 10, 0.6) which are the probability range in the function, the sample size and the probability of observing the condition respectively.

The result is 1 - 0.1662 = 0.8338 which means that the probability that is asked is 83.38%.

I hope this answer helps.

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Mantle is composed of rocks where as core is composed of metals.

Explanation:

Mantle and core both are part of the earth's crust.  Though there have a difference between them- The mantle is consists of semi solidified rocks and core is consists of hot metals like iron and nickel. Core is the inner most layer surrounding the earth's center. The portion of the interior beyond the crust is called mantle. The core is the densest layer of the earth with its density ranges from 9.5-14.5 g/cm^3 where the density of mantle varies between 2.9-3.3 g/cm^3.
