Amanda (age 39) lives a very hectic life that allows for little sleep. She doesn't eat a healthy diet or exercise. She is worrie
d because her mother developed heart disease at the age of 40. What are the uncontrollable risk factors in Amanda's situation? A.
environment, stress, lack of sleep
B.
diet, age, and lack of exercise
C.
gender, diet, and the environment
D.
heredity, age, and gender
I would say D because it would be hereditary because her mother has it, and who knows if her mother’s mother has it. It just makes more sense to me than the others, because all of the other you can control.
D. would be the answer. Heredity, age, and gender are all things that Amanda can not change about herself, but things like environment, sleep, diet, etc... are all things she has the power to change.
