Please answer this: Given the background: Any unused energy in food, whether it comes from carbohydrates, proteins, or lipids, is stored in the body as fat. An extra 3,500 Calories of energy results in the storage of almost half a kilogram (1 pound) of stored body fat. People who consistently consume more food energy then they need may become obese. Obesity occurs when the body mass index is 30.0 kg/m 2 or greater. Body mass index (BMI) is an estimate of the fat content of the body. It is calculated by dividing a person's weight (in kilograms) by the square of the person's height (in meters). Obesity increases the risk of health problems such as type 2 diabetes and hypertension. and the situation: Two groups of people were part of a nutrition study. Group O was made up of individuals that consumed an extra 2000 calories per day, while group B had a normal daily caloric consumption. Answer the following question: Which group had fewer people with increased risk of health problems?
++++++++
Answer: group B

Please answer this: Given the background: Animals and some bacteria and fungi carry out lactic acid fermentation. Lactic acid is a waste product of this process. Our muscles perform lactic acid fermentation during strenuous exercise, since oxygen cannot be delivered to the muscles quickly enough. The buildup of lactic acid is believed to make your muscles sore after exercise. Bacteria that produce lactic acid are used to make cheese and yogurt. The lactic acid causes the proteins in milk to thicken. Lactic acid also causes tooth decay, because bacteria use the sugars in your mouth for energy. and the situation: Mark and Jerry are brothers. Mark just got done working out and returned home to find his brother laying down on the couch eating a bag of potato chips. Mark comments that Jerry should really come and work out with him some time. Jerry brushes him aside. Answer the following question: Which person's body has less lactic acid?
++++++++
Answer: Jerry

Please answer this: Given the background: Conifers have many uses. They are important sources of lumber and are also used to make paper. Resins, the sticky substance you might see oozing out of a wound on a pine tree, are collected from conifers to make a variety of products, such as the solvent turpentine and the rosin used by musicians and baseball players. The sticky rosin improves the pitcher's hold on the ball or increases the friction between the bow and the strings to help create music from a violin or other stringed instrument. and the situation: Two pitchers are trying out for a baseball team for the summer league. Joe accidentally got rosin on his fingers before going out to throw his pitches, but Mike's hands are clean of any extra substances. They both go out and pitch and the coaches make notes of their performances. Answer the following question: Who will have a worse grip on the ball?
++++++++

Mike
