Answer options:

a.body weight relative to height; the amount of one’s abdominal fat

b.body weight relative to height; one’s height

c.abdominal fat relative to height; one’s age

d.abdominal fat relative to height; one’s hip measurement

Answer

a.

Explanation:

BMI takes into account your weight and your height. However, this can be a bit problematic because it doesn't take into account muscle mass. So someone who is, for example, short and muscular but with little to no body fat, could show an "obese" BMI, even though they are in great shape.

BSI aims to overcome this by also taking into account abdominal fat by measuring waist circumference. Body shape seems to be better at predicting how likely someone is to suffer weight-related illnesses, so BSI takes into account these factors for a more accurate measure.

QUESTION 10
ratelena [41]

Answer; Grieving is the outward expression of your loss. Your grief is likely to be expressed physically, emotionally, and psychologically. For instance, crying is a physical expression, while depression is a psychological expression. It is very important to allow yourself to express these feelings. Often, death is a subject that is avoided, ignored or denied. At first it may seem helpful to separate yourself from the pain, but you cannot avoid grieving forever. Someday those feelings will need to be resolved or they may cause physical or emotional illness.

Many people report physical symptoms that accompany grief. Stomach pain, loss of appetite, intestinal upsets, sleep disturbances and loss of energy are all common symptoms of acute grief. Of all life's stresses, mourning can seriously test your natural defense systems. Existing illnesses may worsen or new conditions may develop.

Which idea does a catering unit usually incorporate for formal dinners? A catering unit usually incorporates the idea of having
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

The missing word is COURSE.

Explanation:

In general, a catering unit will normally introduce the concept of providing a <u>full course</u> meal for <em>formal dinners.</em>

A full course dinner consists of several types of food. The simple complete course meal is made up of three or four types of food. Full-course meals usually began with an introduction to the main course, such as a snack, small chops or a soup, followed by the main dishes, and finished with desserts, coffee and/or tea.

In many ways, a formal dinner gathering is different from an informal one. One key feature of a formal dinner is that it requires men, for instance, to wear an evening dress like a tuxedo, or even white tie at times.

Cheers!
