• A. Acceleration doubles
• B. Acceleration is halved
• C. Acceleration remains the same

3. What are enzymes?

• A. Building blocks of muscle
• B. Biological catalysts
• C. Energy source
• D. Antibodies

4. What is the process by which muscle tissue wastes away due to disuse or lack of nutrients?

• A. Hypertrophy
• B. Atrophy
• C. Fibrosis
• D. Rigor mortis

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Atrophy. Atrophy is the process by which muscle tissue wastes away due to disuse or lack of nutrients. When muscles are not regularly used or do not receive enough nutrients, they can decrease in size and strength. Hypertrophy, on the other hand, refers to the increase in muscle size and strength through exercise and proper nutrition. Fibrosis is the formation of excess fibrous connective tissue in an organ or tissue, leading to scarring. Rigor mortis is a temporary stiffening of muscles that occurs after death. Therefore, in this context, atrophy best describes the wasting away of muscle tissue due to disuse or lack of nutrients.
