Level#1
Diabetes is the sixth-leading cause of death among Americans. Diabetes is a disease that affects the way the body changes food into energy. Diabetes causes the body to not make enough of the hormone insulin. Insulin is needed by the body to change sugar into energy. A low amount of insulin results in high levels of sugar in the blood. This sugar in the blood passes into the urine.

Level#1
Cardiovascular disease is a group of diseases that affect the heart and blood vessels. Many types of cardiovascular disease can be prevented or controlled by a change in lifestyle. A heart attack can be caused by clogged or hardened arteries, poor diet, smoking, and stress. A heart attack is often the result of not enough oxygen and nutrients getting to the heart. The heart may beat irregularly or stop beating completely. An early sign, that a person is having a heart attack , is a feeling of pressure in the middle of the chest.

The heart may beat irregularly or stop beating completely. An early sign, that a person is having a heart attack , is a feeling of pressure in the middle of the chest. Another type of cardiovascular disease, congestive heart failure, is the gradual weakening of the heart muscles that occurs over a long period of time. This condition occurs in a person with diseased arteries and hypertension. A known factor that contributes to developing this type of heart failure is the use of illegal drugs, such as cocaine, crack cocaine, and heroin.

A person can reduce his or her risk of having clogged arteries by choosing healthy foods that do not contain too much fat. The causes of hypertension are; obesity, alcohol use, inactivity, smoking, excess salt in the diet, and age and heredity are also factors. Hypertension causes the heart to work harder and can lead to other cardiovascular diseases. Arteriosclerosis, also known as hardening of the arteries, is caused by a diet that is high in fat , especially cholesterol. it is a buildup of fatty deposits along the inner lining of arteries. Arteries become thick and lose their elasticity.

Arteries become thick and lose their elasticity.
1. What is cardiovascular disease and how can it be prevented or controlled?
2. What should a person with high blood pressure try to do to lower their blood pressure?
3. What can a person do to reduce their risk of having clogged arteries?
Level#3
Cardiovascular disease is a group of diseases that affect the heart and blood vessels. Many types of cardiovascular disease can be prevented or controlled by a change in lifestyle. For example, a person with high blood pressure can help lower his or her blood pressure by eating healthy foods, excessing, and avoiding salt. A person can reduce his or her risk of having clogged arteries by choosing healthy foods that do not contain too much fat. The causes of hypertension are; obesity, alcohol use, inactivity, smoking, excess salt in the diet, and age and heredity are also factors. Hypertension causes the heart to work harder and can lead to other cardiovascular diseases. Arteriosclerosis, also known as hardening of the arteries, is caused by a diet that is high in fat , especially cholesterol. it is a buildup of fatty deposits along the inner lining of arteries. Arteries become thick and lose their elasticity. Atherosclerosis, also known as clogged arteries, is caused by a poor diet that is high in fat, especially cholesterol. The disease is caused by a buildup of fatty deposits along the inner lining of the arteries. The arteries become narrower, and eventually become completely clogged.
1. Explain what cardiovascular disease is, and how it can be prevented or controlled.
2. Explain how a person can lower their blood pressure and how they can reduce their risk of having clogged arteries.
3. Explain the causes of hypertension, its effect on the heart, and what it can lead to.

Directions: ANSWER USING COMPLETE SENTENCES! Use the information you have been given to answer questions about: Cancer
Level#1
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. Cancer causes the body's cells to grow abnormally and at an unusually fast pace. Scientists do not know all the causes of cancer. But, studies have shown that contact with substances called carcinogens raises a person's risk of getting cancer. Carcinogens are cancer-causing substances. Tobacco, for example, contains carcinogens. Tobacco causes lung, throat, and mouth cancer.

But, studies have shown that contact with substances called carcinogens raises a person's risk of getting cancer. Carcinogens are cancer-causing substances. Tobacco, for example, contains carcinogens. Tobacco causes lung, throat, and mouth cancer. Sometimes, cancer cells gather together into a clump, or tumor. These tumors can be either benign or malignant. Benign tumors do not spread to other organs. Malignant tumors can be harmful. They spread to other parts of the body and can damage important organs. Benign tumors are less of a health risk than malignant tumors.
1. What are carcinogens and what does tobacco contain?
2. What do cancer cells sometimes do and what type of tumors are there?
3. What are the differences between benign tumors and malignant tumors?
