A man has been standing in one place without moving for a long time. You walk by and notice that his ankles are swollen. What is a likely explanation for this observation?
◦ Since the man hasn't flexed his leg muscles, blood has not moved upward through the arteries so it stays pooled at his ankles.
◦ Since the man has not flexed his leg muscles, blood has not moved upward through the veins so it stays pooled at his ankles.
◦ The man's heart rate has likely increased because of inactivity, and thus the blood has pooled at his ankles.
◦ The man's blood pressure has likely increased because of inactivity, and thus the blood has pooled at his ankles.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
