So, basically the question is asking what is the dose of a medication that is 2.5mg/kg.

Assuming that the child does NOT weigh 7171lbs but 71lbs; which would equal around 32kg (71 x 0.45).

So this child would have 2.5mg per 32kg. 32kg x 2.5= 80mg of medication.

jasenka [17]

1. Medium-range training involves periods of 10 to 30 minutes of high-intensity exercise at

90 to 100 percent TI. This training is a type of “racing” workout. LSD training is an activity

that’s performed at a low intensity and can be sustained indefinitely. It teaches the body

to burn fat and creates endurance. LSD training should exceed 30 minutes.

2. The starter phase allows the body to get used to the idea of exercise and to avoid soreness

and injury, and it allows individuals time to experiment until they find the program

that works best for them.

<span>Human behavior plays a central role in the maintenance of health, and the prevention of disease. With an eye to lowering the substantial morbidity and mortality associated with health-related behavior, health professionals have turned to models of behavior change to guide the development of strategies that foster self-protective action, reduce behaviors that increase health risk, and facilitate effective adaptation to and coping with illness. Several decades of concerted effort to promote health and decrease risk through individual behavior change have produced successes, failures, and lessons learned.</span>
