* Select the correct answer into all dropdown fields. You need to answer all questions before clicking verify button.

A team of researchers has created an AI that assesses the risk of you having a heart attack in the next 10 years, just by looking once at your chest X-ray. Heart disorders that from reduced or blocked blood flow in arteries due to the accumulation of cholesterol and fat in are called atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVSD). It is one of the major causes of stroke in heart patients. The team’s deep learning model offers a potential solution for population-based opportunistic screening of cardiovascular disease risk using existing chest X-ray images. Generally, if a doctor wants to predict the risk of heart attack for a patient, they a statistical model that calculates the ASCVD risk score, which involves evaluating cardiac health on the basis of factors like systolic blood pressure, age, hypertension and so on. However, since it may not always be possible to have to all these records, the researchers consider X-rays to be an ideal singular parameter for calculating heart attack risk.

Result:

A.I. Explanation:

Correct answer: originate
Explanation: The verb 'originate' correctly indicates the source or cause of heart disorders, fitting grammatically in the present tense and contextually as it describes how these disorders arise from specific conditions.
Meaning: 'Originate' means to begin or come from a particular source, indicating that heart disorders stem from reduced or blocked blood flow.
Wrong options:
vary: The verb 'vary' suggests differences or changes, which does not accurately describe the cause of heart disorders in this context.
receive: The verb 'receive' implies acceptance or obtaining something, which does not relate to the cause of heart disorders.
exempt: The verb 'exempt' means to free from an obligation or rule, which does not apply to the context of heart disorders.
Correct answer: them
Explanation: The pronoun 'them' correctly refers back to 'arteries,' maintaining grammatical consistency in number and context as it indicates the accumulation of cholesterol and fat in those arteries.
Meaning: 'Them' is a pronoun used to refer to previously mentioned plural nouns, in this case, 'arteries.'
Wrong options:
those: 'Those' is a demonstrative pronoun that would require a different grammatical structure, making it less suitable in this context.
their: 'Their' is a possessive pronoun that does not fit here as it would imply ownership, which is not the intended meaning in this sentence.
there: 'There' is an adverb indicating a place, which does not relate to the context of referring to arteries.
Correct answer: employ
Explanation: The verb 'employ' is appropriate as it means to use or apply a method, fitting grammatically in the present tense and contextually as it describes the action a doctor takes to predict heart attack risk.
Meaning: 'Employ' means to make use of something, in this case, a statistical model for predicting risk.
Wrong options:
present: The verb 'present' implies showing or introducing something, which does not accurately describe the action of using a model in this context.
suggest: The verb 'suggest' implies recommending an idea, which does not convey the action of using a model for prediction.
propose: The verb 'propose' means to put forward an idea or plan, which is not as precise as 'employ' in the context of using a model.
Correct answer: access
Explanation: The noun 'access' fits grammatically as it indicates the ability to obtain or make use of something, aligning contextually with the idea of having the necessary records for evaluation.
Meaning: 'Access' refers to the ability to reach or obtain something, in this case, medical records.
Wrong options:
right: The noun 'right' does not fit contextually as it refers to correctness or entitlement, which does not relate to obtaining records.
potential: The noun 'potential' implies possibility but does not convey the idea of obtaining records, making it unsuitable here.
room: The noun 'room' refers to physical space, which does not relate to the context of accessing records.
