The correct answer should be <span>d. hypertrophic obesity</span>
However, a more correct answer would be a combination of C and D because the hypertrophic type is when obesity occurs due to an increase in the size while hyperplastic is when their number increases. Since it's only mentioned here as hyperplasia, only hypertrophic should be the answer.

Answer:

Option B and D

Explanation:

In case of hyper cellular obesity, the total number of fat cell increases and is mainly found in people whose BMI <40 kg/m2. This mainly occurs in people who gain weight during early childhood or adolescent age and thus it is highly variable as compared to any other obesity type.

While in case of hypertrophic obesity, the size of existing fat cell increases.  

Hence, both option B and D would be the correct answer

Explain some of the ocean’s other benefits besides supplying us with water.
mojhsa [17]
The ocean moderates the Earth's climate. Most solar radiation occurs at the Equator, whereas the poles receive little radiation. The ocean<span> transport warm water from the Equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the Equator. The oceans provide a habitat for much of the marine life exploited by humans, such as harvested fish. The oceans act as a massive carbon sink, as phytoplankton absorb carbon from the atmosphere through photosynthesis. The ocean also provides a medium for large scale transportation of goods through shipping. It is unlikely that vehicles as large as container ships could ever be transported over land.</span>
