Explanation:

• lower metabolism to burn fat: Lack of physical activity slows down metabolism, reducing fat - burning ability.
• greater risk for heart disease: Inactivity can lead to factors like high cholesterol, obesity, etc., increasing heart disease risk.
• decrease in body weight: Usually, inactivity leads to weight gain (due to less calorie burn), so this is incorrect.
• development of high blood pressure: Inactivity can contribute to high blood pressure as the heart has to work harder and blood vessels may be affected.
• increase in blood circulation throughout the body: Physical activity increases blood circulation; inactivity has the opposite effect, so this is incorrect.

Answer:

• lower metabolism to burn fat
• greater risk for heart disease
• development of high blood pressure
