Question

Ben is a self-employed accountant who works overtime during the first two weeks of April to finish his clients' tax forms before the filing deadline. During this time, Ben is most likely to show a(n)

a. elevated blood cholesterol level.
b. reduction in blood pressure.
c. reduction in blood sugar levels.
d. increased release of lymphocytes.

Answer 1

Elevated blood cholesterol level.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cholesterol is a type of fat present in animals that plays an important role in the organisms. Cholesterol acts as the precursor for different steroid hormones and an important composition of plasma membrane.

The too much cholesterol in the body can increase the rate of heart attacks in the individual. The lack of exercise and body movement increases the level of cholesterol in the individual. Hence, Ben is more likely to show the elevated levels of cholesterol.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a).
