The more excess body fat you have, the greater your health risks. True False measures an electric current traveling through the body and is used to determine body composition. Air displacement Bioelectrical impedance dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry underwater weighting

Solution

8.

Excess fat depositions in the body leading to overweight and obesity. This may result in impairement of insulin production causing diabetes. Heavy fat depositions may lead to cardiovascular diseases like coronary heart disease and arteriosclerosis etc. Therefore, excess fat depositions may cause several health risks. Thus, the given statement is true.

15.

The body composition measurements include the fat deposits and fat free tissue volume. This can be measured by passing electric currents through the body. The techniques such as bioelectric impedance and dual energy x-ray absorptiopmetry are used to measure body composition. Therefore, options 2 and 3 are correct.
