Answer:If Njia knows what she is talking about, she will most likely show you a darkened "age spot" on her arm. The correct option is C.

Explanation:

Free radicals are unstable and very reactive molecules which are missing one electron and they can be produced by the body, for example, during respiration. Free radicals can equally begotten from external environment, example, exposure to UV radiation from the sun, toxins and smokes. When these free radicals enter the body skin cells, they combine with the free electron and cause damage to the skin cells. It affects the skin cell membrane,mitochondria and it's DNA. Over a period of time it will cause skin aging which appears as wrinkles and age spots. This can be removed by the use of antioxidant like Vitamin A, C, and E which donated an electron to the free radicals so that the free radicals doesn't have to take the electron from the cells of the skin.

Do you think it should be mandatory for teenagers to have the HPV vaccine?  Explain your answer.
Andrej [43]

I think that it should be mandatory for any sexually active person to receive the shot for HPV but especially women. Men are carriers of the virus but it greatly affects women and can lead to ovarian, uterine, and/or cervical cancer as well as other cancers. Roughly 80% of the population will have HPV at one time or another. It is usually suggested that those who get HPV while younger wait and it will pass on its own. By demanding the vaccine and making it mandatory, we will lower these risks.

I am not sure why parents do not get their kids vaccinated because they really should. My guess would be that they are uneducated or believe that anything with risks should be avoided for their children and do not understand that the disease the vaccine is treating is actually worse than the unlikelihood of the vaccine side effects occurring.

I would visit websites such as the center for disease control and american heart association. Any reputable websites with scientific information will show that vaccines are necessary especially for children.
