Answer:

a. 66.1798kg

b. 92.47%

Explanation:

His weight had been stable at 135 pounds until the past 6 months, in which he has experienced an involuntary weight loss of 10 pounds. He is 67 inches tall and his current BMI is 19.5. He complains of a poor appetite and being overly weak and tired. He also complains of cracks at the corners of his mount and a chronic sore throat which concerns him, given his cancer history. His usual diet is fairly consistent. He states that he rarely eats breakfast because he starts work at 6 a.m. He eats two deli meat sandwiches, "usually pastrami or salami," and a soda at 10 a.m., and may eat a candy bar in the afternoon when he gets off work. He often prepares frozen dinners or pizza at home in the evening and routinely drinks "about 4 or 5 beers" before going to bed. Occasionally he will cook a roast and mashed potatoes. He occasionally will have milk with cereal but rarely eats vegetables or fruit. He would like to know which vitamin supplement will give him energy.1.What is Samuel’s Ideal Body Weight? What is his current percentage of ideal body weight?

Extracting the parameters from the above statements

50 + (0.91 × [height in centimeters − 152.4])

convert his height in inches to centimeters

67inches=170.18

50+(0.91*(170.18-152.4)

66.1798kg

What is his current percentage of ideal body weight?

61.2/66.178*100%

92.47%

Why glucose can be used to make fatty acids
kkurt [141]

Answer:

Fatty acid can not be used to make glucose because once glucose is converted to aceltyl coA it can not be converted back to glucose again. The pyruvate dehydrogenase reaction that converts pyruvate to aceyl CoA is an irreversible reaction. Lipid metabolism produced acetyl CoA through beta oxidation, because of this pyruvate and oxaloacetate can not be converted to glucose through gluconeogenesis. Besides, the two carbon atoms in acetyl CoA molecule are lost upon entering the citric acid cycle, thus the acetyl CoA is used for energy.
