A 2-day-old infant who weighs 6 lb (2722 g) is fed formula every 4 hours. Newborns require about 73 mL of fluid per pound (454 g

) of body weight each day. In light of this information, approximately how much formula should the infant receive at each feeding?
a. 1 1 to 2 oz (30 to 60 mL)
b. 2 2 to 3 oz (60 to 90 mL)
c. 3 3 to 4 oz (90 to 120 mL)
d. 4 4 to 5 oz (120 to 150 mL)

8 0

Answer:

b. 2 2 to 3 oz (60 to 90 mL)

Explanation:

The answer would be 72.94 ml/times

In this problem, the infant is fed for every 4 hours.

Then, the frequency of feeding for a day would be: (24hours/day) / 4 (hours/times)= 6 times/ day.

The volume of feeding for a day that the infant need would be: 2722\times\frac{454}{73} = 473.68ml/day

The number of milk for every fed would be: (473.68ml/day)/ (6 times/day)=  72.94 ml/times

Hence option b seems most appropriate answer

You have a plant with yellow seeds, which express a dominant phenotype. How would you determine the plant's genotype? Conduct a
Archy [21]
The answer is <span>Conduct a test cross with a purebred recessive plant. 

</span>

Test cross is the cross between an organism with unknown dominant genotype and an organism with known recessive genotype.

<span>Since dominant trait results from a dominant allele, the test cross can determine if an unknown genotype is heterozygous and homozygous dominant. </span>

If A is dominant allele, and a is recessive allele, then AA is dominant homozygote, Aa is a heterozygote, and aa is recessive homozygote.

<span>According to the Punnett square, if all of the offspring are heterozygote (Aa), then unknown genotype is dominant homozygous (AA). If half of the offspring are the heterozygote, and the other half are recessive homozygote, then the unknown genotype is heterozygote (Aa).</span>
