Answer: Her patient is very muscular.

Explanation: Muscle weighs more than fat, so someone who is really muscular would appear overweight in a BMI measure due to the height/weight ratio. So for example someone who is 5,1 and weighs 169lbs. would appear to be obese on a BMI even though they might actually be swole. A better health measure would be to check the body fat percentage.

Brainliest please?

The BMI isn’t very accurate, because it doesn’t account for muscles, for example, dwain Johnson (I think I spelled it wrong) would be morbidly obese according to a BMI chart, but he isn’t, he is just very muscular.

The structure that collects sound and funnels it into the auditory canal is called the?
DENIUS [597]

The structure that collects sound and funnels it into the auditory canal is called the pinna.

The ear is an exposed and sensitive organ in the human body. It is concerned with collecting, transmitting, and producing sounds. It also helps to maintain balance in the body. It has three main parts: the external ear, the middle ear, and the internal ear. Pinna is a part of the external ear.

Pinna is also called auricle. It is composed of cartilage folds that are covered by skin. The only part of the audible which is not covered by cartilage is the lobule. The curvature formed by cartilage is known as a helix. Another part of the pinna includes the meatus which is responsible for directing sounds collected by the helix.

Pinna acts as a link that transfers sound signals from the air to the auditory canal inside the ear. The tympanic membrane carries the sounds in an S-shaped path towards the middle ear (auditory canal).

To know more about pinna, part of the ear, refer to the following link:

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Doubling over, pale complexion, tears, furrowed brows

<u>Doubling over</u> is a reaction to clench the stomach when someone is in pain. <u>Pale complexion</u> is a result of blood loss, fear, anxiety, dehydration/light headedness, and loss or red blood cells. <u>Tears</u> (depending on the context) are a way to let out emotion - both sad and happy. <u>Furrowed brows</u> is usually a sign of discomfort which is usually a consequence of worrying too much or crying too much, both of which require face muscles to tense for a long(ish) period of time.
