Genes are segments of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) that contain the code for a specific protein that functions in one or more types of cells in the body. Chromosomes are structures within cells that contain a person's genes. Genes are contained in chromosomes, which are in the cell nucleus.
<span><span>There are choices for this question namely:
a. Her waist is 36 inches.
b. Her triglyceride level is 140 mg/dL.
c. Her blood pressure (BP) is 128/84.
d. Her fasting blood sugar (BS) is 108 mg/dL.
The correct answer is that </span>her waist is 36 inches. The criteria for metabolic syndrome include a large waist circumference (>35 inches for women, >40 inches for men), <span>high triglyceride level (>150 mg/dL), reduced HDL or good cholesterol (<40 mg/dL), elevated blood pressure (>130/85 mmHg), and elevated fasting blood sugar (>100 mg/dL). While her fasting blood sugar is elevated at 108 mg/dL, more specific criteria is the waist circumference.</span></span>

Answer:
D. Type II alveolar cells
Explanation:
Three layers together make the diffusion membrane or respiratory membrane, which make the total thickness of less than a millimeter i.e. about 0.2 micrometer. The three layers are as follows:
1. The squamous epithelium of alveoli. There are two types of alveolar cells called type I and type II. Type I makes the exchange surface of alveolar membrane and type II cells are responsible for secreting the lung surfactant that reduces the surface tension.
2. Endothelial lining of blood capillaries. These is rich network of blood capillaries near the wall of alveoli.
3. In between the squamous epithelium and the endothelium of blood capillaries fused basement membrane is present.
