The larger the fat-free mass, the greater the resistance to the electrical current from BIA.Select one:TrueFalse

The statement is True.

Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a method used to estimate body composition, particularly body fat and fat-free mass (which includes muscles, bones, and water). When an electrical current passes through the body, tissues of different compositions resist the flow of that current in varying degrees. Fat-free mass, being more conductive due to its water and electrolyte content, offers less resistance to electrical current than fat mass.

Therefore, as the fat-free mass increases, there is greater conductivity and less resistance to the electrical current. This relationship is fundamental to how BIA works for estimating body compositions.
