1) TARGET HEART RATE
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

A 17 year old with a resting heart rate of 62 bpm has a maximum hearth rate of 203 bpm, a hearth rate reserve of 141 bpm and target hearth rate between 161 and 182 bpm

Explanation:

Target heart rate is a measure used to calculate the range of heart rate that should be maintained during intense exercise.

Knowing a person's age and resting heart rate (RHR), a target heart rate calculation can be made from the maximum heart rate (MHR) and the hearth rate reserve (HRR)

Data:

- Age: 17 years old

- RHR: 68 bpm

The maximum heart rate is calculated by subtracting age from a constant value of 220, so:

  • MHR = 220 - age
  • MHR = 220 - 17  
  • MHR = 203 bpm

HRR is calculated by subtracting the resting heart rate (RHR) from the MHR value:

  • HRR = MHR - RHR
  • HRR = 203 - 62
  • HRR = 141 bpm

THR is obtained by multiplying the HRR by 0.7 and 0.85, to obtain the range of heart rate in which the exercise can be performed.

  1. THR lower limit = (HRR x 0.7) + RHR                                                   Lower THR = (141 x 0.7) + 62 = 160.7 ≈ 161 bpm
  2. THR top limit = (HRR x 0.85) + RHR                                                         THR top = (141 x 0.85) + 62 =  181,85 ≈ 182 bpm

For the 17-year-old, the ideal target heart rate for an intense exercise is between the values of  161 and 182 bpm.

Which of the following BEST describes the effects of an STI on emotional and social health?
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
The most appropriate answer would be B. There is a behavioral phenomena in humans to avoid those they see as different, but also to avoid those who are known to be diseased regardless of the threat of infection. This can lead to social isolation for those with STI, if their condition becomes known to others.

Yanka [14]

Answer:

Diuretics will remove water from the blood and eliminate it in the urine. Consequently, water will move from the peritoneal cavity into the bloodstream reducing her ascites.

•The mechanism of action of diuretics are

o Osmotic diuretics are substances that are not reabsorbed or that exceed the ability of the tubule to reabsorb it, which increases osmolarity of the urine, and causes water to be drawn into the urine from the ISF.

o Loop diuretics (Lasix) inhibit symporters in the loop of Henle by diminishing sodium chloride uptake. They reduce the normal hyperosmolality of the medullary interstitial fluid, reducing the effects of ADH, resulting in loss of NaCl and water.

o Thiazides act on the distal convoluted tubule to inhibit water reabsorption.

•Her diet is salt-restricted because if salt content in the blood is high, it will cause her to retain water rather than allowing her to eliminate it.
