A 42-year-old white male was referred to a gastroenterologist by his primary care physician because of a two-month history of gr

oss rectal bleeding. The new patient was seen on Wednesday, and the doctor performed a comprehensive history and exam. Medical decision making was of moderate complexity. The patient was scheduled for a complete diagnostic colonoscopy four days later. The patient was given detailed instructions for the bowel prep that was to be started at home on Friday at 1:00 p.m. On Friday, the patient was registered for outpatient surgery at the hospital, moderate conscious sedation (15 minutes) was administered by the physician performing the procedure, and the flexible colonoscopy was started. The examination had to be halted at the splenic flexure because of inadequate bowel preparation. The patient was rescheduled for Monday and given additional instructions for bowel prep to be performed starting at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday. On Monday, the patient was again registered for outpatient surgery at the hospital, moderate conscious sedation (30 minutes) was again administered by the physician performing the procedure, and a successful total colonoscopy was performed. Diverticulosis was noted in the ascending colon and two polyps were excised from the descending colon using the snare technique. The pathology report indicated the polyps were benign.The patient was referred to a cardiologist for transesophageal echocardiography for cardiac arrhythmia. The patient underwent transesophageal echocardiography on Thursday, and the cardiologist supervised and interpreted the echocardiography, which included probe placement and image acquisition. The report stated the "transesophageal echocardiogram showed cardiac arrhythmia but normal valvular function with no intra-atrial or intraventricular thrombus, and no significant aortic atherosclerosis."

Some problems with the digestive system make it very difficult for the body to digest enough food. Why would it be harder to exe
vampirchik [111]
The answer to your question would be:

B, Your cells would have molecules from air, but would not get enough molecules from food.

You can actually use logic to riddle this answer out.

Option A is not plausible because sleep is out of the question. The answer has to be something related to the lack of something, such as a certain molecule, not sleep.

Option C would make no sense in any context. The fewer molecules of food sure, but it doesn’t mention having enough or too little molecules needed for exercise.

Option D is a no contest answer. If you have a problem digesting enough food, that means you would be lacking food molecules. The only way you could be able to lack both food molecules, and oxygen molecules, mean you have both respiratory problems and digest problems, or a disease that attacks both the respiratory system and digestive system.


I hope this helps you out
