Answer: The total cholesterol is 199

Explanation:

Total cholesterol = LDL + HDL + Triglycerides

= 77 + 62 + 60

= 199.

As the patients doctor, I'd advise that the patient makes life style changes as they are approaching total cholesterol of 200 which is borderline high. Life style changes will include diet changes especially.

<h3>What does "recommended dietary allowance" refer to?</h3>

The Food and Nutrition Board has determined the levels of essential nutrient intake known as Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs) to be sufficient to meet the known nutrient needs of nearly all healthy individuals.

For those unable to excrete nitrogenous wastes, such as those with severe liver disease or renal failure, protein restriction is employed.

The recommended dietary allowance is 0.8 grams per kilogram of body weight for an average inactive adult.

Anemia can be caused by a diet lacking in which nutritional substances?
wel

Answer:

The best answer to the question: Anemia can be caused by a diet lacking in which nutritional substances?, would be, D: Folic acid and vitamin B12.

Explanation:

Anemia, is usually defined as a problem in the formation of red blood cells, or, erythrocites. Usually, there are a number of nutrients, such as vitamins and minerals, that play a vital role in the formation of these erythrocites. One such mineral is iron, which is why, when it is lacking in the diet, it can cause an anemia called iron-deficiency anemia. In this case, the anemia, which is either a reduced production of red-blood cells, or, cells that are incapable of carrying out their duty as oxygen-transporters, is caused by a dietary deficiency. Another form of this can be when the body itself, through an illness, is incapable of producing these cells. However, aside from iron, there are other two nutrients that are vital in the correct formation of erythrocites, and in their being efficent transporters: folic acid, also known as folate, and vitamin B12, both necessarily supplied by the diet, as the body cannot produce them.

Intrapulmonary pressure in the ________.
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B- pressure within the alveoli.

Explanation:

Intrapulmonary pressure is the pressure within the lungs especially in the alveoli of the lungs so is also known as "intra-alveolar pressure".

This pressure helps in the breathing process as :

1. During inspiration - The thoracic cavity volume increases due to which the intra-pulmonary pressure becomes less than the atmospheric pressure which causes the lungs to inhale about 500 ml of air.

2. During expiration- the thoracic volume decreases which cause the intra-pulmonary pressure larger than atmospheric pressure which causes the lungs to exhale the air.

Thus, option B- pressure within the alveoli is the correct answer.
