Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Given Tunde's abnormal slenderness, she is more likely to have conditions related to insufficient body mass such as hypothermia, due to less body fat to insulate against cold, and injury due to trauma, as there's less protective cushioning. Conditions like heart disease, stroke, cancers, heartburn, and indigestion are more commonly associated with obesity rather than being underweight.
