1 shaped: This is the right answer. The shape of someone is the form of their body: fat, thin, voluptuous, skinny etc. It describes their appearance and build. For example, "I'm not shaped like a model. I look more like a bus".
2 injected: This is the right answer here. To "inject" means to introduce into the bloodstream with a needle or syringe. Synonyms include to "give a shot" and "to vaccinate". Example: "The nurse injected me with an anti-malaria drug before I went on holiday".
3 excrete: This is the correct verb in the correct tense. To "excrete" means to eliminate foreign substances or waste from the body. To "perspire", "defecate", "urinate", "ejaculate"... these are all examples of bodily excretions. You may be reading this very early in the morning, so we won't continue with any more detailed descriptions.
4 maintain: This is correct. To "maintain" means to "conserve", to "continue" or to "prolong". For example, "I maintain my level of German by reading German newspapers once a week".
