The same amount of alcohol will be more diluted in a larger individual because this person has a bigger surface area in his body and his bodily fluids are greater than those of a small person's. With this the liver and pancreas' capacities to release enzymes necessary to breakdown the alcohol is more efficient and comes in bigger dosages. However, it should be noted that regardless of the effects of this in the body, a person should still know how to regulate alcohol intake as this has other known effects in the body (e.g. mentally and physically).

Because the larger individual is more likely to be heavier and bigger in general - with that also carrying more weight. Because alcohol gets diluted in the body, it will become more diluted in someone who is bigger compared to someone who is smaller - simply for these reasons the same amount will have less of an effect in a heavier individual.

Cb, a 63 year old male, is receiving 1,150 ml of d30w, 860 ml of aminosyn 8.5%, and 340 ml of intralipid 10% in his pn therapy.
KiRa [710]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 76%  percentage of the non-protein calories are represented by dextrose

Explanation:

Given :

d30w = 1,150 ml

aminosyn 8.5% = 860 ml

intralipid 10% = 340 ml

solution:

30 g/100 mL = x g/1150 mL = 345 g

D = 3.4 kcal x 345 g = 1173 kcal

L 10% = 1.1 kcal x 340 mL = 374 kcal

1173 kcal D + 374 kcal L10% = 1547 kcal of non-protien calories

1173 kcal D ÷ 1547 kcal total = 76%

Thus, the correct answer is - 76%  percentage of the non-protein calories are represented by dextrose
