As race-day approaches, and in order to increase his glycogen stores and reduce the likelihood of fatigue, Anthony wants to incr

ease the percentage of total kilocalories in his diet coming from carbohydrate. If he is eating 2500 kilocalories per day during the training period, and if he wants 60% of his kilocalories per day to come from carbohydrate, how many grams of carbohydrate should he be eating per day?a) 1,500b) 375c) 167d) 300

Answer:

option (b) 375 grams

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Calories taken per day = 2500 kilocalories

Desired increase in calories = 60%

Amount of calories to be increased per day = 60% of 2500

= 0.60 × 2500

= 1500 kilocalories

Now,

1 gram of carbohydrates provides 4 Kilocalories

therefore,

For 1500 kilocalories, carbohydrates required will be

= 1500 kilocalories ÷ 4 kilocalories/gram

thus,

carbohydrates required = 375 grams

Skinner box provides an experimental condition that is used for examining natural flow of the behavior. It is also known with the other name as Operant conditioning chamber. It is a small chamber in which the animals for research are kept. Within the chamber there is a lever or key that the organisms under research can operate in order to get food or water in the chamber. An electronic equipment is connected to the chamber which records the activities of animals on keys or lever.

skad [1K]
General paradigms of species extinction risk are urgently needed as global habitat loss and rapid climate change threaten Earth with what could be its sixth mass extinction. Using the stony coral Lophelia pertusa as a model organism with the potential for wide larval dispersal, we investigated how the global ocean conveyor drove an unprecedented post-glacial range expansion in Earth׳s largest biome, the deep sea. We compiled a unique ocean-scale dataset of published radiocarbon and uranium-series dates of fossil corals, the sedimentary protactinium–thorium record of Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) strength, authigenic neodymium and lead isotopic ratios of circulation pathways, and coral biogeography, and integrated new Bayesian estimates of historic gene flow. Our compilation shows how the export of Southern Ocean and Mediterranean waters after the Younger Dryas 11.6 kyr ago simultaneously triggered two dispersal events in the western and eastern Atlantic respectively. Each pathway injected larvae from refugia into ocean currents powered by a re-invigorated AMOC that led to the fastest postglacial range expansion ever recorded, covering 7500 <span>km in under 400 years. In addition to its role in modulating global climate, our study illuminates how the ocean conveyor creates broad geographic ranges that lower extinction risk in the deep sea.</span>
