The correct answer is <u>option A. Marty's friend counterclaim is appropriate because it is both defensible and arguable</u>. A counterclaim is a response to the claim, with the objective of rebutting the statement that was made in the claim. Marty's friend counterclaim, stating that nutrition education has no effect on obesity, is an acceptable counterclaim because it is capable of being defended and but is also arguable, meaning that it is not certain or clearly true, it is open for debate.

Which option best completes the chart?<br> less potential for abuse of power
mars1129 [50]

Answer: C. Less potential for abuse of power

Explanation:

With a Federal government, power is divided between the Federal government and the state government. Even though the Federal government has power over the state government, there are certain powers that belongs to the state government alone that the Federal government cannot infringe upon unless the state government acts against the Constitution of the nation.

This division of powers reduces the potential for abuse of power because neither government has the absolute power necessary to act in an abusive way to its citizens.

Social isolation and loneliness as risk factors for the progression of frailty: the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing
alina1380 [7]

Loneliness and social isolation have been linked with premature mortality and with functional decline in older people.

We found that high levels of loneliness, but not of social isolation, increased the risk of becoming physically frail.

Neither loneliness nor social isolation were associated with the rate of change in a more broadly defined frailty index.

Loneliness

Loneliness is a subjective feeling of dissatisfaction with one’s social relationships. Both social isolation and loneliness have been linked with increased mortality [2–4], incident heart disease [5, 6] and functional decline [7, 8]. Social isolation and loneliness tend to be correlated, albeit weakly .

Social isolation :

Social relationships are important for health . Most such research has focused on social isolation or loneliness. Social isolation is defined objectively using criteria such as having few contacts, little involvement in social activities and living alone.

Frailty :

Frailty is a clinical syndrome whose main feature is heightened vulnerability to stressors due to lowered physiological reserves, decline in the ability to maintain homeostasis and impairments in multiple systems

A frailty index score reflects the proportion of potential deficits present  The phenotype model defines frailty in physical terms, whereas the cumulative deficit model uses a broader definition of frailty.
