18. Which of the following can result if your cardiovascular system is strong but your muscles are not?

Question

A. Slow metabolism

B Increased body fat

C. Decreased body fat

D Fast metabolism

Answer 1

If your cardiovascular system is strong but your muscles are not, one of the potential results could be:

B. Increased body fat

This is because a strong cardiovascular system primarily improves endurance and aerobic capacity, but without a strong muscular system, there may be less overall muscle mass, which can lead to a slower metabolism and potentially increased body fat. Muscle tissue is metabolically active, meaning that having more muscle can help increase overall metabolic rate.
