Biology

Answer:

The correct answer would be - high risk of developing CHD.

Explanation:

Every animal and humans need some cholesterol to regulate bodily functions such as creating hormones, vitamin d forming, cell membrane and many more. But if someone have too much cholesterol in his body, he must have developed a higher risk of coronary heart diseases or CHD.

The total cholesterol level under 200 mg/dL (milligrams per deciliter) is classified as normal for the adults. Reading between 200 to 239 mg/dL is considered as a borderline where is above 240 mg/dL is considered as high. Alejandro's reading falls under high cholesterol level so he has a higher risk of developing CHD.

Thus, the correct answer is - a higher risk of developing CHD.

How is a tendon different from a ligament? A. A tendon joins a bone to a bone; a ligament joins a muscle to a bone. B. A tendon
rusak2 [61]
B is correct. A tendon will join a muscle to a bone, and a ligament joins a bone to another bone. I think of it this way, partly influenced by my biology teacher:

- The achilles tendon, at the back of your foot, clearly joins foot to calf muscle
- The word ligament comes from 'deligare' in Latin, which roughly means to tie           together. A ligament 'ties' two bones together

I hope this helps
