Answer:

The name of the procedure is balloon angioplasty. The procedure is performed when there is a blockage in the artery mainly due to the deposition of fat molecules.  

In this procedure, first the doctor injects a dye through a catheter in the blood which helps in finding the blocked artery on the X-ray machine. Then a balloon attached on a device is inserted in that area of artery where plague is present.

Once the device reaches the blockage area it gets inflated which flattens the plaque in the walls of the artery. Therefore balloon angioplasty is the procedure in which a  catheter is inserted into her blocked artery and a balloon is inflated to flatten the plaque in the walls of the artery.

Suppose that an adult black bear adds 50 pounds of fat in order to survive while hibernating through the winter. how much glycog
NemiM [27]

Answer: The correct answer would be 112.5 pounds

Explanation:

Let us first covert the pound into grams. We know that 1 pound is equal to 453.59 grams.

Thus, 50 pound of fat = 50 x 453.59 = 22,679.5 grams.

We know that, 1 gram of fat releases 9 Kcal of energy. Thus, total energy produced by 22679.5 grams = 9 x 22679.5 = 204,115.5 Kcal

Glycogen is carbohydrate thus, it will produce 4 Kcal of energy per gram.

Thus, 4 x C = 204,115.5 (where C is the grams of glycogen)

⇒ C = \frac{204115.5}{4}

⇒ C = 51,028.875 grams

Using 1 pound = 453.59 grams, we con convert 51,028.875 grams into pounds:

453.59 = 1

1 = \frac{1}{453.59}

51,028.875 = \frac{1}{453.59} x 51028.875

= 112.5 pounds

Thus, 112.5 pound of glycogen would be needed to produce the same amount of energy as produced by 50 pounds of fat.
