I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the third option. The liquid, most likely would belong the group of lipids since this substance is immiscible with water or does not mic with water. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

The fact that they do not dissolve shows that it is a lipid. This is further supported by the fact that the liquid remains collect to form a giant droplet. This occurs as oil/lipids are hydrophobic and thus tend to collect in clumps.

During extended, intense exercise, a person begins to tire and breathe heavily. If this person continues to exercise, his muscle
Leno4ka [110]

Usually during exercise, unlike during rest times the muscle cells need to respire more. So they need more oxygen and glucose for energy and the carbon-dioxide produced as waste must be removed quickly. So when person gets tired or breathes heavily during intensive workouts means they are in need of more oxygen. So the cells starts performing anaerobic(lactic acid ) respiration even though it releases less energy.

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

A. 60 grams protein

B. 74 grams of protein

Explanation:

The amount of protein needed depends on weight and lifestyle. The daily minimum recommended by the National Institutes of Health is 0.36 grams per pound for a sedentary person. But the daily optimal intake for this same sedentary person is 0,8 grams of protein per kg of body weight. On the other hand hand, adults with a more active lifestyle need more protein in their body, the intake should be between 1,2 and 2,0 grams of protein per kg. For example, endurance runners need up to 1,4 and strength training athletes need up to 1.8 g of protein per kg.

The first step for calculating protein requirements is calculate the weight in kilograms, so we need to divide the weight in pounds by 2,2.

154lb/2,2= 70 kilograms

Then we have to multiply the weight in kg, times the number of protein needed per day, 0,8 for a sedentary healthy adult.

70kg x 0,8= 56 grams

Part A:

165-pound (lb) male who is healthy but sedentary

165 lb/2.2 = 75 kg

75 kg x 0,8 = 60 grams protein per day

Part B. Sarah is moderately active so we need to use a number between 1,2 and 2, since shes active but not very active we can use the 1,2.

136-lb/2,2= 62 kg

62 kg x 1,2 = 74 grams of protein
