Having body fat contributes to having a menstrual cycle. If a woman loses too much body fat, she can stop having her menstrual cycle because you need a certain amount for it to be able to function as normal.

However, usually if a woman gains back some of the body fat or starts eating fattier foots/exercising less, her period will start again.

The other options are not correct because:
- <u><em>Influenza can cause an upset stomach</em></u><em>. Influenza primarily affects the respiratory system.</em>
- <u><em>Pathogens affect everyone equally.</em></u><em> Each individual's immune response is different when exposed to the same pathogen.
</em>
- <u><em>Fungi are large, stoneflies organisms</em></u><em>. The pathogenic fungi, such as Candida albicans and Trichophyton, are different from the mushrooms and fungi that can be seen in soil or decomposed organic matter.</em>
