Her patient is very muscula

Answer 1

The BMI isn’t very accurate, because it doesn’t account for muscles, for example, dwain Johnson (I think I spelled it wrong) would be morbidly obese according to a BMI chart, but he isn’t, he is just very muscular.

Answer 2

Answer: Her patient is very muscular.

Explanation: Muscle weighs more than fat, so someone who is really muscular would appear overweight in a BMI measure due to the height/weight ratio. So for example someone who is 5,1 and weighs 169lbs. would appear to be obese on a BMI even though they might actually be swole. A better health measure would be to check the body fat percentage.

Brainliest please?
