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.
Answer: if i want to breed a rose and i don't have a certain kind of rose, i have to cross between them until i have a kind of rose that express the phenotype i was looking for. Once i've got it, i'll try to cross it with another rose and generate more species like that to cross with the rose that express the phenotype, this favors to generate a specie that have a pure phenotype.
Explanation: The answer is explain by the Mendel's laws.
Mendel's second law:
if you have two roses that are heterozygous and you cross them, their offspring have a 25% probability of generating a homozygous phenotype for a certain recessive characteristic (such as the rich smell of roses that is not a dominant character), 50% of generate heterozygotes with a dominant phenotype, and 25% generate other homozygotes with a dominant phenotype.
Once the offspring with the recessive homozygous character are obtained, it is possible to start making crosses between those of a recessive nature and there Mendel's first law applies
All the homozygous recessive individuals that are crossed will have a 100% homozygous recessive offspring.
Also, if you cross heterozygotes with another heterozygotes the offspring will be 100% heterozygotes
