F. B and C

G. A,b and c

Answer 1

ANSWER -CORRECT OPTION IS G

if we increase cholestrol in the blood or decrease the level of cholestrol, in both the cases the level of anxiety will increase. therefore it is necessary that the level of cholestrol should be maintained in the body.

along with this, not only in older people but also in adults, the sedentary life may lead to anxiety. no exercise and sitting ideally for whole day for few days may lead to severe depresions

also, the research has shown that various unsaturated fatty acids lead to increase risk of anxiety, omega 3 fatty acid is one of the main fatty acid which is responsible for depression

hence,option g is correct
