Answer

An athlete can develop an eating disorder if there is pressure to make weight for the wrestling team.

Explanation

An eating disorder is an illness that results from irregular eating habits and stress concerning body weight or shape. Common disorders are Binge Eating disorder, Bulimia Nervosa and Anorexia Nervosa. Athletes maintain slim bodies to facilitate fast running, thus in this case he or she will develop the fear of gaining excess weight (Anorexia Nervosa) which can slow down the running pace.

this disease is :

* endemic (present in a defined area that is a village)

* a bacterial infection (treated with antibiotic)

* communicable by contact (by the hands)

manu-porterage is the most common mode of transmission, it transmits germs from one individual to another via the hands. this concerns infections of exogenous origin.

endemic disease, or endemic disease, refers to a disease that is constantly present in a given population, often tied to a specific geographic origin, as opposed to a pandemic that is not a sporadic disease.

antibiotics are molecules that have the property of killing (bactericidal) or limiting the spread (bacteriostatic) of bacteria.
