The deposition of large amounts of fat in the body might lead to high blood pressure, diabetes, and eventually death.

Further Explanation:

The increased fat content in the body might cause obesity and overweight which increases the possibility of various health issues such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and high blood pressure. The body mass index (BMI) helps one calculate the weight in relation to his/her height so as to categorize them as normal weighted, overweight, or obese.

The people with high-fat content are more prone to develop diabetes. It is suggested that the deposition of fat around the cells changes their composition and makes the cell resistant to insulin. The sugar is carried to the cells from the blood through insulin for the production of energy. The insulin-resistant cells are not able to take up the blood sugar which in turn results in high sugar levels in the blood. In such circumstances, the cells gradually die due to the unavailability of energy sources.

The arteries in the heart supply blood to all the parts of the body. As the body size increases, the blood pressure also increases because the heart is required to pump the blood harder to be supplied to all the cells in the body. The excess fat might also damage the kidneys which help in the blood pressure regulation, ultimately leading to high blood pressure.

The accumulation of fat in the blood vessels of the heart which helps in the blood supply makes them narrow and hard. This might cause obstruction in the supply of blood into and from the heart. The lack of blood supply to the heart or the other body parts such as brain may lead to cell death which eventually causes the death of a person.

Well technically, A and C could lead to B, so the best answer is D- all of the above.
A. Diabetes is common among people with a high BMI (Body Mass Index)
C. High blood pressure is also common (this and diabetes can go hand in hand)
B. Diabetes and High blood pressure can be a deadly combination, so they can ultimately lead to death.
Hope this helps!!

Me plz he did not infringe upon the policy making powers that he felt the constitution gave congress. but the determination of foreign policy became preponderantly a presidential concern. when the french revolution led to a major war between france and england, washington refused to accept entirely the recommendations of either his secretary of state thomas jefferson, who was pro-french, or his secretary of the treasury alexander hamilton, who was pro-british. rather, he insisted upon a neutral course until the united states could grow stronger. which provides the best objective summary of this excerpt? president washington made a good choice when he decided not to accept the recommendations of his advisors and instead insisted that the united states stay neutral during the war between france and england as president, washington believed that the united states should remain neutral in foreign policy even though he had advisors who recommended that he take sides during the war between france and england. washington did not make policy decisions during his presidency because he did not want to interfere with the policy-making powers that the constitution gave congress. washington refused to accept entirely the recommendations of either his secretary of state thomas jefferson, who was pro-french, or his secretary of the treasury alexander hamilton, who was pro-britis
