Question

how do anabolic steroids affect heart health? *

they strengthen heart muscles permanently

they reduce blood pressure significantly

they remove cholesterol from arteries

they increase plaque buildup and reduce heart function

Explanation:

Anabolic steroids have negative impacts on heart health. They don't strengthen heart muscles permanently (the first option is incorrect as their effects on heart muscles are harmful, not beneficial in a permanent, positive way). They do not reduce blood pressure significantly (second option is wrong; they can increase blood pressure). They also do not remove cholesterol from arteries (third option is incorrect). However, anabolic steroids can lead to increased plaque buildup in arteries and a reduction in heart function, which matches the fourth option.

Answer:

D. They increase plaque buildup and reduce heart function
