The right answer is False. (An important element missing from the definition of motor unit are motor neurons.)

A motor unit is composed of an alpha motor neuron and the muscle fibers it innervates.

Groups of motor units often work together to coordinate the contractions of a single muscle. All motor units that serve the same muscle are considered to be a group of motor units. The number of muscle fibers connected to each unit can vary: the muscles of the thigh can have up to a thousand fibers per unit, the muscles of the eyes can have only ten. In general, the number of muscle fibers involved in a motor unit is a function of the muscle's need for its refined movement: the more the muscle will need a fine movement, the less the motor unit will involve synapses with the muscle fibers.

notka56 [123]

Answer:

The answer is cardiovascular disease

Explanation:

Depending on how long the person remains inactive and how many pounds do they put on will determine the risk of developing the disease. Not exercising and gaining weight has been shown to lead to cardiovascular disease and later to heart problems. But that is not that alarming for people who are around their normal weight.
