Answer:

C. He has a high risk of diabetes and kidney disease

Explanation:

Plugging in all these values into the BMI composition gives us:

BMI= 250 (72)² × 703= 33.9

looking at the BMI categories, shows us that any BMI that is 30+ is considered obese which Seth clearly is.

We can cross out a nonviable option of malnutrition as it's only commonly associated with weight loss. (still some cases linked with obesity)

He's not at a slight risk of weight-related diseases as he's obese so he's already at major risk

Explain the meaning of the statement "Think globally, act locally", and give an example of acting locally.
Ahat [919]
This simply means, when thinking about issues hat face the world today, instead of thinking about little issues that bug you or your town, think about issues affecting everyone in their daily lives, such as daylight savings and global warming. By acting locally, this means completing tasks no matter how big or small within your local area to help face these global issues. For example, acting against global warming on a local scale would be simply to educate the town or city as to what it is and how it can be prevented. Knowledge is power.

5 Argumentos a favor de las pruebas de drogas en las escuelas?
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Se ha propuesto que este tipo de pruebas podría ayudar a reducir el consumo de drogas mediante la rehabilitación temprana

Explanation:

La realización de pruebas escolares para el consumo de drogas con el correspondiente consentimiento de padres y alumnos ha sido recientemente sujeto de debate en diferentes países. Aquellos partidarios que se encuentran a favor de este tipo de procedimiento alegan que el conocimiento en etapas tempranas de consumo de estupefacientes podría ser beneficioso para erradicar el problema. Sin embargo, diversas organizaciones gubernamentales mantiene profundas reservas sobre esta práctica (especialmente asociadas a su seguridad y eficacia). En consecuencia, se ha planteado que la realización de pruebas para el consumo de drogas debería tener como objetivo lograr la rehabilitación temprana del individuo en lugar de sólo llevar a acciones punitivas que pueden no resolver el problema. Por otra parte, también se plantea la cuestión de la estigmatización social en personas con algún tipo de adicción, es por esta razón que la información recopilada a partir de este tipo de prácticas debe ser cuidadosamente manejada por profesionales idóneos bajo estrictas normas de confidencialidad.
