Answer: a. Carbon monoxide

Explanation:

The carbon monoxide gas competes with the oxygen in the blood to occupy the binding affinity of the hemoglobin thus the blood changes it's color to cherry red.

In postmortem lividity, the body becomes discolored due to the effect of flow of blood from the interstitial tissues and suspended under the force of gravity. This can be seen on the dependent parts of the body and the position of body after death. The color of the postmortem lividity depends on the color of the hemoglobin.

In case of carbon monoxide poisoning the color of postmortem lividity appears to be cherry red as color of the hemoglobin is cherry red. Thus cherry red or dark pinkish patches appear in the corpse as lividity.

A serving of soup contains 5.0 g of fat, 20.0 g of carbohydrates, and 3.0 g of protein. Determine how many kilocalories (kcal) a
marta [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The amount of kilocalories contained in the given serving of soup is 0.137 kCal

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>As per the USDA:</u>

Carbohydrates provide 4 calories per gram, protein provides 4 calories per gram, and fat provides 9 calories per gram.

We are given

Mass of fat in the soup serving = 5.0 g

Mass of carbohydrates in the soup serving = 20.0 g

Mass of protein in the soup serving = 3.0 g

Conversion factor used:  1 kCal = 1000 Cal

Applying unitary method:

  • <u>For Fat:</u>

1 gram of fat provides 9 calories

So, 5.0 gram of fat will provide = \frac{9}{1}\times 5.0=45Cal=0.045kCal

  • <u>For Carbohydrates:</u>

1 gram of carbohydrates provides 4 calories

So, 20.0 gram of carbohydrates will provide =\frac{4}{1}\times 20.0=80Cal=0.080kCal

  • <u>For Proteins:</u>

1 gram of proteins provides 4 calories

So, 3.0 gram of fat will provide = \frac{4}{1}\times 3=12Cal=0.012kCal

Total kilocalories per serving = [0.045 + 0.080 + 0.012] kCal = 0.137 kCal

Hence, the amount of kilocalories contained in the given serving of soup is 0.137 kCal
