The rda for protein increases by an additional ______ grams per day during pregnancy.

Biology
1 answer:
Artemon [7]3 years ago

The RDA for protein increases by an additional 25 grams per day during pregnancy.  Protein RDAs are calculated using 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight, which means an adult weighing 68 kilograms needs at least 54 grams of proteins each day . The RDA for pregnant and nursing women is a bit higher because of the protein needed for the growth of fetus, it is about 71 grams of protein per day.

What is the process that leads to a stronger response from cells that detect the edge of a surface than from cells that detect t
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Lateral inhibition.

Explanation:

Lateral inhibition may be defined as the ability of an excited neuron to reduce or decrease the activity of ts side by or neighbor's neuron. The sensory [perception is increased during lateral inhibition.

The stronger response is detected at the surface edge rather than on the cell's middle surface. The excited neurons move in the lateral direction and decreases the activity of the middle or neighbor neurons.

Thus, the answer is lateral inhibition.

A 22-year-old man was in a motorcycle accident with resultant neck injuries that led to partial paralysis of the upper and lower
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

We are given:

Minute Ventilation, MV = 6L/min

Respiratory Rate, RR = 30 b/min

PaO2 = 61mmHg

PaCO2 = 47mmHg

a) to find Tidal Volume, TV, we use:

TV = MV/RR

TV = 6/30

= 0.2litres => 200ml

For Alveolar ventilation, AV, we have:

AV = (Tidal Volume-dead space)×RR

AV = (200 - 150)×30

AV = 1500ml/min

The normal dead space value is 150ml.

Comparing both TV and AV with the normal values, it can be said that, since he has a TV of 200ml, he is defficient because a normal TV level is 500ml.

The man has an AV of 1500ml/min, which is low when compared to the normal AV value which is 4200ml/min.

2) The factor contributing to the deceased alveolar ventilation is the increase in PaCO2, in this case, the PaCO2 is 47mmHg, whereas the normal PaCO2 level is between 38-42mmHg

3) The muscle involved in this problem is the lower rib cage and thoracic cavity, while the nerve involved in this problem is the spinal cord.

4) The residual volume is decreased

5) Dyspenea simply means shortness of breath. It happens when a person experiences difficulty in breathing.

6) The cause of Dyspenea could be that the tidal Volume is lowered by the reduced diaphragmatic and intercoastal innervation or it could also be caused by chest trauma

7) The reflexes that causes tachypnea in this individual are the central and peripheral chemoreceptors. A individual has a PaO2 of 61mmHg and this low PaO2 causes the high breathing rate becauses peripheral chemoreceptors senses it and the medulla sends the signal out

Glycolysis occurs in almost all organisms on earth. From this we might conclude that __________. Glycolysis occurs in almost all
Hunter-Best [27]

Glycolysis evolved very early in ancestors that are common to all the domains of life.

This is because the site of glycolysis is cytoplasm which is present in both prokaryotes as well as eukaryotes.

As prokaryotes are the early ancestors of all domains of life therefore it is also considered that glycolysis is evolved very early.
