Explanation:

Question 5

To determine the correct definition of cholesterol, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Cholesterol doesn't control fluid in the body. Incorrect.
• Option B: This describes hydrogenated fat (trans fat), not cholesterol. Incorrect.
• Option C: While cholesterol is in animal products, this is a broad description. Not specific.
• Option D: Cholesterol is a waxy, fat - like substance found in meat, dairy, and egg yolk. This matches the scientific definition.

For a 13 - year - old female's one - mile run time:

• "Marginal" is for slower times. 8 minutes is not marginal.
• "Low" is not a standard fitness zone description for this test.
• "High performance" is for very fast times (faster than 8 minutes for a 13 - year - old female).
• A 13 - year - old female running a mile in 8 minutes is considered in the "good" fitness zone based on fitness standards for this age and gender.

To assess cardiorespiratory endurance:

• Option A: The PACER (Progressive Aerobic Cardiovascular Endurance Run) is designed to test cardiorespiratory endurance.
• Option B: Curl - ups test muscular endurance (abdominal strength), not cardiorespiratory endurance.
• Option C: Pull - ups test muscular strength/endurance (upper body), not cardiorespiratory endurance.
• Option D: The back - saver sit - and - reach tests flexibility, not cardiorespiratory endurance.

Answer:

D. waxy, fat - like substance found in meat, dairy products, and egg yolk
