Why do you think body composition focuses on the ratio of fatty tissue to other body tissue? Why is body composition not related
kykrilka [37]

Fat is a quite simple component to measure. Increased or above normal/ average body fat has been proven to be linked with many health risks.<span> <span>Body weight is not always an accurate indication of body composition. If you were to equate an NFL running back who is 5' 10" and weighs 200 lbs, to a 5'10" 200 lbs. banker, there body composition would be VERY unalike although there weight is exactly the same. Of course the football player is healthier, because he is perhaps carrying one third of the body fat as the banker of the same weight. Maintaining that muscle mass would also infer healthy habits like nutrition and exercise.</span></span>

Answer:

Explanation:

Lower motor neurons refer to the spinal and cranial motor neurons that directly innervate skeletal muscles.

When injury occurs to lower parts of the motor system , such as motor systems or their axons , deficits may be well localized. If the motor nerve to a muscle is damaged , that muscle develop paresis or complete paralysis. If their motor nerves are transected ,muscles become flaccid (atonia ) and eventually develops atrophy.

Damage to these neurons is associated with :

1) Flaccid paralysis

2) Muscle atrophy

3) Fasciculations

4) Hypotonia

5) Hyporeflexia.

Hence option A is the right answer.
