Answer 1

Definitely, Rosa will be classified by the doctor as been obese.

Step-by-step explanation:

Obesity is when there is an accumulation of excess body fat in one's body such that it can have adverse effect on the person's health.

Answer 2

Answer: Her current weight is obese

Step-by-step explanation:

Body Mass index (BMI) is a formula used to classify weight of an individual.

BMI = weight(kg)/Height squared (m^2).

Underweight = less than 18.5

Normal = 18.5 - 24.9

Overweight = 25.0 - 29.9

Obese = greater than 30.0
