Answer:
A) increased frequency of menstrual cycles.
Explanation:
An adult female having a BMI that is below 18.5, might be an indication that she’s having low body fat, and this means she’s underweight. Several complications could arise as a result of this which include those listed in the options above except for option A. <em>Underweight women do not experience increased frequency of menstrual cycles, rather they do experience irregular menstrual cycles as a result of the low level of fat in their body.</em>
<span>An open fracture is where the bone protrudes out
of the skin. This usually occurs in accidents where collisions cause a massive
blow to the body which then causes the bone to break and be displaced from
their original positions. This type of fracture needs immediate medical
assistance because this might cause a major blood loss to the body which might
result to other complications (e.g. infections, further displacements). <span>
<span>Once an
open fracture occurs, a person is suggested to stay in his exact position and
not be moved until medical assistance arrives. Open fractures often require
major surgeries and they usually take a longer time to recover than hairline
fractures because a protrusion to the skin is evident.</span></span></span>
