Answer:

Answered below.

Explanation:

Spironolactone is a diuretic of the potassium-sparing class. It acts to prevent the absorption of too much sodium and thereby preserving the potassium levels in the blood.

It is used in the treatment of disease conditions such as hypokalemia, fluid retention, heart failure, nephrotic syndrome and chronic kidney disease.

In certain kidney conditions where there is protein in urine or proteinuria, spironolactone has been used for therapy.

The long-term use of spironolactone in the treatment of proteinuria shows a decrease in the levels of proteinuria.

The estimated glomerular filtration rate or eGFR decreased after one month of treatment using spironolactone.

Spironolactone has been shown therefore, to be beneficial in the control and management of these conditions.

To the manager,

Trump Tires Company.

22nd of may 2020.

Hello Clark Kent,

    I'm writing to express my displeasure with your company's violation of my consumer's right. I do not wish to take this issue further than it should.

    Two months ago, I bought two brand new tires of your brand from Derek utilities store, a local utilities store here in Alabama county. The product are both Roller 320 GT with serial numbers 320/2341 and 320/2342, bought  on the 3rd of march 2020. The product warranty as stated on the product was for a year but two months down the line, the threads had started to pull away from the tire. I contacted the store staffs but they weren't forthcoming with any help; citing that they no longer carry the tire. Also, I've tried reaching the store's manager and he gave no replacement.

     I would appreciate for the store to be contacted by your company and arrangements to be made for replacements for those tires as soon as possible.

     You can reach my by my cell phone number +1234567890 or contact me by email through this email address

      I'll be expecting your soonest reply and thanks in advance. Do have a nice day sir.

                                                                                    With regards,

                                                                                    John Jewell.

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

The basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the rate that is required of minimum energy to be able to meet vital signs and the development of life, for this a calculation is needed, this calculation presents two variables, height, age, sex and the weight ... making the TMB different in every living being.

TMB-man = (10x weight in KG) + (6.25X height in cm) - (5 x age in years) + 5.

We only explain the one of the man since juan consider that it is of masculine gender.

Explanation:

The variables that we see in the TMB equation are fundamental also to understand that babies do not have the same energy demand when it comes to meeting their vital signs as an elderly or adult, that a woman does not have the same energy expenditure as the Neither man since it processes hormonal situations much more catalytic of energy such as menstruation, people with rickets or obesity will have different energy demands, and also lastly, people with higher heights spend more energy during locomotion ...

We name all these examples because they relate the height, weight, sex and age, fundamental and strictly necessary variables to know the TMB of any human being.
