What does bioelectric impedance measure?

  1. Bone density

  2. Muscle strength

  3. Fat-free tissue and fat mass

  4. Blood flow velocity

The correct answer is: Fat-free tissue and fat mass

Bioelectric impedance measures the amount of resistance to an electrical current through the body, with higher resistance indicating a greater percentage of fat-free tissue and fat mass. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not relate to resistance in the body and are not directly measured by bioelectric impedance. Bone density, muscle strength, and blood flow velocity can all indirectly affect resistance, but are not direct measures of it. It is important to remember that bioelectric impedance does not directly measure body composition, but rather estimates it based on resistance measurements.
