Answer:

Triglycerides

Explanation:

Triglycerides are a kind of fat, the most common type in the body. Triglycerides can come directly from foods, such as oils, butter, and other fats, and they can be created by a person’s body when that individual consumes more calories than his or her body needs as a way of storing those surplus calories.

The medical term for having elevated levels of triglycerides is hypertriglyceridemia.

In fasting laboratory tests, a normal triglyceride level is below 150 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL).  High is considered 200 to 499 mg/dL. Very high is over 500 mg/dL.

High triglyceride levels can increase risk for heart disease, stroke, and nerve damage.

inn [45]

Answer:

By experimenting and comparing the results on different body parts.

Explanation:

The "Two Point Discrimination Test" is designed to illustrate the density of touch sensitive receptors for different parts on our body and our ability to tell if there are two distinct objects that we are touching or not.

The density of touch receptors in different receptive fields on our body can be our hands and our back for example, the receptive field density is much more higher in our hands for evolutionary reasons so we are able to more easily tell two distinct objects apart that we are touching with our hands.

I hope this answer helps.
