Question

identify what coronary artery disease is. (1 point)○ an illness that causes the lungs to fill with fluid and makes it hard to breathe.○ a condition that makes the muscles in the body cramp and feel sore.○ a disease that affects the bones and makes them weak and brittle.○ a condition where the arteries that supply blood to the heart become narrowed or blocked.

Explanation:

Coronary arteries are the vessels that deliver oxygen-rich blood to the heart muscle. Coronary artery disease specifically involves these arteries being narrowed or blocked, usually by plaque buildup, which restricts blood flow to the heart. The other options describe different conditions: lung fluid buildup is related to heart failure or pneumonia, muscle cramping/soreness is not characteristic of this disease, and bone weakening refers to osteoporosis.

Answer:

A condition where the arteries that supply blood to the heart become narrowed or blocked.
