A lifestyle of little or no physical activity can be described as leading a sedentary lifestyle.

While heart disease is commonly known to be linked to these risk factors, cancer is also strongly influenced by them. Inactivity, poor diet, and obesity can increase the risk of developing various types of cancer, including breast, colorectal, and pancreatic cancer, among others. Therefore, it is important to address these lifestyle factors in order to reduce the risk of both heart disease and cancer in the population.

By adhering to this speed limit, drivers can help create a safer environment for students and pedestrians in school zones.

Therefore, the statement "True" is correct as it accurately describes how a team can score in Ultimate Frisbee.
