Answer:

The correct answer is: A) a pregnant woman.

Explanation:

Bodybuilders in particular need the lower body fat percentage possible in order to succeed in their career, since most of their bodies must be muscle. Professional ballet dancers need to be light and skinny to be able to perform their dance moves and to be lifted by their partners; a basketball player also needs a lower fat percentage and a higher muscle mass percentage to be able to play at his best; and a ranch hand as well needs to not be packing that much fat in order to make his job easier.

Pregnant women, however, need body fat to have healthy pregnancies. This doesn't mean that they do not need to take care of themselves, because a higher body fat than what it's needed can lead to diabetes, high blood pressure and can difficult the pregnancy.

Tanzania [10]

Answer: b) skraplanie

Explanation:

As part of the hydrological cycle, water is evaporated off of the surface of the earth and turns into the gaseous form of water which is water vapor. With temperatures getting colder as you go higher, the water vapor will begin to condense into water droplets in the process called Condensation.

As this happens, the water droplets will come together and begin to form clouds. This will continue till the cloud gets too heavy for the capacity of the atmosphere and will then fall as rain.

Complementary strands in DNA are the opposite strand, so Adenine is coupled to Thymine and Guanine is coupled to Cytosine. So the complementary sequence (also called the antisense strand) of the original would be GTC GGC ATC, there's an extra 3 bases in there: ACA.</span>
