Slower population growth was not a reason behind fewer death in present than in past because of the communicable disease such as pneumonia.

Further Explanation:

The presence of micro-organism for example fungi, virus and parasite lead to the dispersion of communicable disease to a very great extent. Microorganisms can be available in the surroundings and can also be present inside the body. The contaminated food and water transmit communicable diseases from one being to another. People who undergo transplant surgery or have a weak immune system can easily acquire (get infected) by the communicable disease. Pneumonia is a common example of communicable disease. It can easily get multiply in the host body and cause a high fever. The rate of death due to communicable disease has declined from the past era, because of improvement in medical treatments. Many enhanced techniques are being developed to prevent the dispersion of communicable diseases such as vaccination. They are very essential and protect against many communicable diseases such as hepatitis B, polio, rubella, tetanus, pertussis, and diphtheria. Slower population growth doesn’t affect the risk of dispersion of communicable disease but the environmental condition can affect.

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

The muscles that the personal trainer would expect to be shortened are Sternocleidomastoid and pectoralis major. The right answer is Option A.

Explanation:

While assessing one's posture, if a person has protracted shoulders and a forward head, then the trainer focuses on working on the sternocleidomastoid and pectoralis major muscles. The former is one of the largest superficial cervical muscles which helps in the rotation of the head to the opposite side and flexion of the neck. The latter is responsible for shoulder joint movement. At first, it causes flexion of the humerus like lifting a child. Secondly, it adducts the humerus like when one flaps his/her arms. Working on these muscles helps to correct the posture of the concerned person.
