Answer to Question 1

flexibility

Answer to Question 2

Endurance athletes may have higher iron requirements than nonathletes because of increased loss of blood in the feces, iron loss associated with excessive sweating, and rupturing of red blood cells as a result of the repeated striking of the feet against hard surfaces. Because of the blood loss associated with menstruation, female athletes are more likely than males to experience impaired iron status.
