Answer:

If Jay loses muscle size after taking a break, this loss is called atrophy.  

Explanation:

Muscle atrophy refers to the condition in which the mass or size of the muscle gets reduced to temporary disabling of routine work. This may lead to either partial or complete damage to the affected muscles.

On the other hand, hypertrophy refers to the condition in which the muscle size gets increased wither due to over storage of glycogen or increased size of myofibrils.  

As Jay loses muscle size after taking break, it may be inferred that he is affected with muscle atrophy. hope this helps you :)

Discuss the impact that blocked vessels have on blood pressure. How would this impact overall health?
Softa [21]
Well with blocked vessels, lets use plaque buildup as the reason for blocked vessels. It's Like trying to match together two puzzle pieces that don't fit. The piece if forced together, will be a tight fit much like how blood cells/platelets trying to fit through a small area. The pressure will be increase because the more pressure that is being put on will help to push blood through a clotted area.
