has recently taken up weight lifting and his friends at the gym mistakenly believe they should eat more protein to build muscle.

The DRI for protein for healthy adults is 0.8 g per kg body weight. If Reuben weighs 205 lbs (93 kg), how many grams protein per kg body weight did he eat on this day

Complete Question

Ruben Ward has been weight lifting and eating a high protein diet. Below is Ruben's profile and what he ate for a day. He entered his profile information and food intake into Diet & Wellness Plus and then pulled the Diet & Wellness Plus Reports. View Ruben’s Intake vs Goals and Macronutrient Ranges Reports and then answer the questions below. Profile for Ruben Ward 1. Age: 19 years old 2. Gender: Male 3. Height: 5 ft, 8 inches 4. Weight: 205 lbs 5. Non-Smoker 6. Activity Level: Active

Ruben has recently taken up weight lifting, and his friends at the gym mistakenly believe they should eat more protein to build muscle. The DRI for protein for healthy adults is 0.8 g per kg body weight. If Ruben weighs 205 lbs (93 kg), how many grams protein per kg body weight did he eat on this day?

a. 5.37 g/kg

b. 10.33 g/kg

c. 3.55 g/kg

d. 4.88 g/kg

Answer:

c. 3.55g/kg

Explanation:

RDI means Recommended Dietary intake. It is the required amount of a nutrient expected to be taken by an individual for optimal health.

The Recommended Dietary Intake I'd protein falls withing the range of 0.8 grams per kg to 1.8 grams per kg

For Reuben

He weighs 93 kg

If Reuben consumed 330 grams of protein, his grams of protein per kg body weight is

330 grams ÷ 93kg

= 3.55g/kg.

Suppose that Gene B occurs in a sea turtle gene pool where the frequency of the B1 allele is 0.5 and the frequency of the B2 all
disa [49]

Answer:

Frequency of the B3 allele = 0.1

Explanation:

The allele frequencies in a given population remain constant which means that every generation will have the same gene pool across the generations. As per Hardy Weinberg’s first equilibrium equation, the sum of frequency of all the alleles at a given locus is equal to one  

Thus, if "p" represents the frequency of B1 allele and "q" represents the frequency of B2 allele and "r" represents the allele for B3 allele. Then, sum or "p", "q" and "r" is equal to one.

p+q+r = 1\\

Substituting the given values, we get -

0.5 + 0.4 + r = 1\\0.9 + r = 1\\r = 1-0.9\\r = 0.1

<u>Answer</u>: Thermal energy---->  a polar bear breaks down stored fat to increase its temperature.

Mechanical energy-------> bat emits and receives sounds to locate prey.

Electrical energy------>eel releases a current to defend itself.

Radiant energy -------->  a firefly produces a green glow from its abdomen to attract mates.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • <em>Thermal energy</em> is the energy created in the movement of particles that leads to the production of heat and thus, the temperature increases. Since the polar bears break down fat to increase temperature, the energy generated is thermal energy.  
  • The<em> mechanical energy</em> is defined as the sum of energy of motion and   the position of an object  . Thus the energy produced by the bat to locate its prey is mechanical energy.
  • The energy associated with the production of electromagnetic radiation is<em> radiant energy,</em> thus the glow produced by fireflies is a form of radiant energy.
  • The energy produced due to the movement of electrons is electrical energy. Thus, the energy produced by an eel in the form of electric current is <em>electrical energy.</em>
