Answer:

Propofol (another name Diprivan) can be used for Diana's surgery. It is a sedative or anesthesia commonly used for children and adults. Studies show that there were no significant differences in dose requirements based on sex or age, except for the too elderly.  The difference in dosing considering different body weights were not statistically significant also.  The same dose is safe

( 0.1-0.15 mg/kg/min IV for 3-5 min) for Diana, the 210 lb man or a 10-year-old girl. However, the dose was higher in patients with bradycardia and hypotension.

Answer:

D) Energy is required in order to maintain homeostasis--without a constant, organized internal state, the cell will die.

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the condition of relative stability that the body needs to perform its functions properly for the body's balance.

Despite changes that may occur in the body, internally or externally, homeostasis is the constancy of the internal environment (interstitial fluid). Keeping at an appropriate temperature (37º C) ensuring that the necessary changes to the body occur; and thus the cells of the body develop.

Because of homeostasis, cells need a constant supply of energy. That's because energy is needed to maintain homeostasis - without a constant, organized internal state, the cell will die.
