Answer to Question 1

B
Omega-3 fatty acids help decrease risk of heart disease by preventing formation of clots that may block arteries that are narrowed by atherosclerotic plaques. Omega-3 fatty acids do not decrease blood pressure or serum levels of triglyceride and cholesterol.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
