Unease getting around and breathing difficulties
Insulin resistance and low blood pressure
Bone thickening and respiratory problems

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The correct option is this: EARLY SIGNS OF CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE AND SLEEP APNEA.
Obesity refers to a medical condition in which excess body fat has grossly accumulated leading to negative impacts on the health status of the affected individual. An individual is considered to be obese is his body mass index is greater than 30 kg/m^2. Obese people are more prone to other diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, bone and joint diseases, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, etc.  
Answer 2
Answer: If RIchard has become obese, the new health risks Richard is now facing would be the problem of getting around and breathing difficulties or early signs of cardiovascular disease and sleep apnea.

It's hard to say which of the pair is true because both pairs happen in obese people. It's more likely though, that the first pair (getting around and breathing difficulties) is correct.

Answer:

Choanocytes

Explanation:

Choanocytes are membranous flagellate cells lining the spongiocelium (central body cavity of Porifera kingdom animals) and other internal vibrating chambers of sponges.

The movement of its flagellacreates the water stream that brings nutrients and gases. The nutrients are filtered by the choanocyte, which is not a solid structure, but rather a set of small erect rods separated by spaces.

Any organic particle or plant microorganism trapped in the choanocyte is routed down toward the cell body and endocyted, with intracellular digestion occurring in digestive vacuoles.
