Glucose is present in blood plasma at a concentration of approximately 80 mg/dL. A typical 70 kg human has approximately 5 L blo

od, which is 55% plasma. Using the glucose concentration of Sprite that you calculated in the previous question, how many mL of Sprite does a human need to drink to reach a plasma glucose concentration of 80 mg/dL, assuming none is mobilized?

Answer: 48.93 mL of sprite

Volume of blood in 7 Kg human = 5 L

Percentage of plasma in blood = 55%

Volume of plasma in 5 L blood =  (1 L = 10 dL)

Concentration of glucose in plasma = 80 mg/dL

Amount of glucose present in 27.5 dL : 80 mg /dL × 27.5 dL= 2200 mg

Let the volume of sprite with 2200 mg glucose be x

Concentration of glucose in sprite = 44.96 mg/mL

A genetic carrier is someone who
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B. has a defective allele and normal phenotype.

Explanation:

Genetic carrier or the hereditary carrier is an organism or a person that has a recessive allele for a particular trait or character (generally mutation) but does not exhibit the trait or any character related to the trait.

The carriers are normal in the sex-linked characters in comparison to the autosomal traits. Females are generally the carrier for sex-linked characters and carry the allele to the next generation.

Thus, the correct answer is option B. has a defective allele and normal.

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Based on their feeding habits, we will regard the raccoons as omnivores. Omnivores are organisms that possess the ability to feed and survive on both plant and animal matter.

These raccoons eat invertebrates etc which are animal matter and then different fruits and vegetables etc; plant matter.

Thus, they can be regardless as being an omnivore.

Help me!! Suppose you must design an experiment to test how a paper airplane's shape affects the distance it will fly. Your plan
Mandarinka [93]

Explanation:

Make a standard, "dart" design paper airplane

Fold your paper into the basic dart paper plane. Fold carefully and make your folds as sharp as possible, such as by running a thumbnail or a ruler along each fold to crease it. Do not bend up the edge of the wings

Throw the plane at least four more times. Each time before you throw the plane, make sure it is still in good condition (that the folds and points are still sharp). When you toss it, place your toe on the line and try to launch the plane with a similar amount of force, including gripping it at the same spot.

Once you have a good idea of how far your plane typically flies, change the plane’s shape to increase how much drag it experiences. To do this, cut slits that are about one inch long right where either wing meets the middle ridge. Fold up the cut section on both wings so that each now has a one-inch-wide section at the end of the wing that is folded up, at about a 90-degree angle from the rest of the wing.

Make paper planes that are different sizes and compare how well they fly.

Try making paper planes out of different types of paper, such as printer paper, construction paper and newspaper. Use the same design for each.

Some people like to add paper clips to their paper planes to make them fly better. Try adding a paper clip (or multiple paper clips) to different parts of your paper plane (such as the front, back, middle or wings) and then flying it

I hope i helped
