Answer to Question 1

c

Answer to Question 2

One explanation for why fat in the abdomen may increase the risk of disease involves adipokines, hormones released by adipose tissue. Adipokines help to regulate inflammation and energy metabolism in the tissues. In central obesity, a shift occurs in the balance of adipokines, favoring those that increase both inflammation and insulin resistance of tissues. The resulting chronic inflammation and insulin resistance contribute to diabetes, atherosclerosis (a cause of heart disease), and other chronic diseases. Insulin resistance is a central feature of the metabolic syndrome.
