It is important that you maintain a healthy weight both for your overall health and so that your respiratory system can

A. deliver oxygen more adequately.

I think B is a true statement; however, the problem asks about the respiratory system and the heart is not part of the respiratory system. I'm not a biology or anatomy guy but I would not go with B.

Okay. Then could it be A or D???

Thank you guys!

To determine the correct answer, let's analyze the given choices:

A. Deliver oxygen more adequately: This option suggests that maintaining a healthy weight has a positive impact on the delivery of oxygen. While this is generally true, it may not directly relate to the respiratory system. Oxygen delivery is more closely associated with the cardiovascular system.

B. Pump blood more forcefully from the heart: This option pertains to the cardiovascular system's ability to pump blood. While maintaining a healthy weight can positively influence cardiovascular health, it does not directly relate to the respiratory system.

C. Keep capillaries constricted: This option refers to the constriction of capillaries, which are tiny blood vessels. However, maintaining a healthy weight typically promotes vasodilation (widening of blood vessels) rather than constriction.

D. Allow for smaller amounts of air to enter your lungs: This option suggests that maintaining a healthy weight restricts the amount of air entering the lungs. However, this is not accurate. Maintaining a healthy weight does not inherently limit the amount of air entering the lungs.

Considering the explanations above, it becomes clear that option A is the correct answer: Maintaining a healthy weight is important for the overall health of the body, including the respiratory system's ability to deliver oxygen more adequately.

Why would you pick D? Why would you want smaller amounts of oxygen? I would go with A. There is no way C or D can be correct.
