There is some evidence that mineral loss may be greater in athletes than in the sedentary population is true.

<h3>What causes mineral loss?</h3>

Simply not obtaining enough necessary minerals from food or supplements is a primary contributor to mineral insufficiency. There are various diets that could lead to this deficit. Possible factors include a poor diet that prioritizes junk food or one that doesn't include enough fruits and vegetables.

In addition to losing zinc and iron through urination, athletes can also lose salt, chloride, and potassium through sweat. The body can either enhance or decrease absorption in order to maintain mineral balance.

The following are some of the physiological functions of minerals that are crucial for athletes: bone health, muscle contraction, normal heart rhythm, nerve impulse conduction, oxygen transport, oxidative phosphorylation, enzyme activation, immunological processes, and blood acid-base balance.

A Typical Human Body Contains About 3.0 Grams Of Potassium Per Kilogram Of Body Mass. 1. ... 1. How much Potassium-40 is present
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Given

Per Kg of body mass, there is 3 gram of potassium

And abundance of three isotopes are as follows

Potassium-39, Potassium-40, and Potassium-41. Have abundances respectively as 93.26%, 0.012% and 6.728%.

1) A body weighing 80 Kg will have 240 grams of potassium. And the amount of Potassium-40 will be 0.012% of 240 gram

= 240*0.012/100 = 0.0288 gram.

2) Dose in (Gy) = (energy absorbed)/(mass of the body) = ( 1.1*106*1.6*10-19)/(80) = 22*10-10 J/kg

Dose (in siverts) = RBE*Dose(in Gy) = 1.2*22*10-10 = 26.4*10-10

The passage suggests that if a news commentator presented an editorial agreeing with the Huxleyan warning, many viewers would:
Anna [14]

Answer:

A) Take whatever action was necessary to combat the danger.

This response would be more likely in the case of an Orwellian culture, which the author states is like "a prison" and "much easier to recognize, and oppose than a Huxleyan [world]."

B) Listen carefully to the commentator and then explain the ideas to others.

The passage suggests the opposite response: "Huxley believed that we are in a race between education and disaster, and he wrote continuously about the necessity of our understanding the politics and epistemology of media, he  was trying to tell us that what afflicted people in <em>Brave New World</em> was not that they were laughing instead of thinking."

C) charge that the commentator was irrational or needlessly alarming viewers.

The passage suggests that the commentator would invite this charge: "Those who speak about this matter must often raise their voices to a near hysterical pitch, inviting the charge that they are everything from wimps to public nuisances to Jeremiahs."

D) Be receptive to learning more about the danger.

The viewers would be unreceptive to learning about the danger, because, according to the author, this world would appear benign.
