15. Option 'A' (All the choices listed are correct) is correct

Justification:

Option 'B' is correct because, according to the guidelines of American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) for exercise testing and prescription, all healthy adults aged 18-65 yrs should perform vigorous intensity aerobic activity for a minimum of 3 days a week for about 20 minutes. So, this option is correct.
Option 'C' is correct because according to ACSM guidelines, individuals can perform physical exercise by combining moderate and vigorous intensity aerobic activities for 3-5 days a week.
Option 'D' is correct because, according to the guidelines of American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) for exercise testing and prescription, all healthy adults aged 18-65 should perform moderate intensity aerobic activity for a minimum of 5 days a week for about 30 minutes. So, this option is correct.

So, all the given options are correct.

Thank you!

(a) Select all of the correct statements about reaction rates from the choices below. The lower the rate of a reaction the longer it takes to reach completion. Reaction rate constants increase with increasing temperature. Solid catalysts increase reaction rates as their surface areas increase. The rate of a reaction is the same as the rate constant of the reaction. The slowest step in a reaction is called the rate-determining step. Reaction rates increase with increasing temperature. The rate of...

Select all of the correct statements about equilibrium from the choices below. At equilibrium the rates of forward and reverse reactions are equal. As a reaction proceeds forward toward equilibrium the product concentrations rise. At equilibrium no more reactants are transformed into products. As a reaction proceeds forward toward equilibrium the forward rate drops. At equilibrium the rate of change of reactant concentration is zero. At equilibrium all reactions stop.
