Explanation:


The consequence of previous or existing smoking on specific CVD risk parameters such as blood pressure and cholesterol appears to be of clinically trivial importance in personalities aged 46 years. In additional terms, smoking appears to be beyond all an unconventional risk factor for CVD in the working-age people. Stopping smoking in working age may thus decrease estimated CVD risk approximately to the equivalent level as personages who have never smoked.

Non-smokers have smaller odds of developing cardiovascular diseases than smokers.  Apart from cardio vascular diseases, smokers are at risk of other diseases such as lung cancer and emphysema.  A possible way for a non-smoker to develop this can be the environment where he or she lives in or his or her family history.

Explain why even though we might call the exercise a “push-up”, skeletal muscle are still pulling? In your answer, be sure to me
Anarel [89]

Answer:

Agonist muscles and antagonist muscles refer to muscles that cause or inhibit a movement.

Explanation:

Agonist muscles cause a movement to occur through their own activation.[4] For example, the triceps brachii contracts, producing a shortening contraction, during the up phase of a push-up (elbow extension). During the down phase of a push-up, the same triceps brachii actively controls elbow flexion while producing a lengthening contraction. It is still the agonist, because while resisting gravity during relaxing, the triceps brachii continues to be the prime mover, or controller, of the joint action. Agonists are also interchangeably referred to as "prime movers," since they are the muscles considered primarily responsible for generating or controlling a specific movement.
