Three women are now entering their third trimester of pregnancy. They’ve kept in contact the entire time, occasionally comparing

their pregnancy experiences. Inevitably, the topic of weight gain comes up. All women are 5’4". Olynda began her pregnancy underweight at 100 pounds and has gained 30 pounds so far. Lynn began her pregnancy at 170 pounds and has maintained the 10-pound weight loss from her first trimester. She continues to weigh 160 pounds and her baby’s growth and development on track. Nadia was the only woman to begin her pregnancy journey at a healthy weight of 120 pounds and has gained 55 pounds. Although Nadia began her pregnancy at a healthy weight, her high weight gain during pregnancy leaves her at an increased risk for developing gestational diabetes and gestational hypertension. She is also at greater risk for preterm delivery or a need for a C-section delivery.
a. True
b. False

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Nadia's body mass index (BMI) is 30, which means that she is overweight. Being overweight before or during pregnancy is a risk factor that can cause gestational diabetes what can lead to an overweight baby or put at risk the life of it. These factors lead to C-sections deliveries due to the big size of the baby or due to complications. High blood pressure can lead to preeclampsia, this puts at risk the life of the baby and the mother, and it can lead to preterm delivery. Also, there is a high probability that the baby has health problems in the future. For the reasons mentioned above, it is important to keep a healthy weight before and during pregnancy.

How are energy inputs and outputs related to chemical reactions
GREYUIT [131]

The large number of areas covered by the chemical energetics can be explained by the different forms in which chemical energy can be released: heat and combustion work, electrical energy in electrochemistry, radiant energy in chemiluminescent systems.

The chemical energy provided by a reaction reflects the energy balance associated with the electronic modifications suffered by the species involved.

From an energy point of view, a chemical reaction between molecules can be schematized in two stages. The first requires a supply of energy and corresponds to the rupture of the bonds of the reactant molecules with release of the atoms which constitute them.

The second releases energy and concerns the creation, by recombination of these atoms, of new bonds entering the structure of the reaction molecules.

As a general rule, the energy released in the second stage is greater than the first. We are talking about exothermic reaction. The difference between these two energies (reaction enthalpy) measures the amount of chemical energy transferred to the external environment.

It is conceivable that this quantity translates, not only the number, but also the strength of the connections involved.

Bob is color blind, but he knows that neither of his parents were color blind. He is wondering if he received the gene for color
Leokris [45]

Answer:

Mother: Rr   Father: Rr

Explanation:

     R      r

R   RR   Rr

r    Rr    rr

This represents that both parents are carriers, but the dominant gene takes over. It is a 25% chance their offspring will receive the recessive gene of colorblindness, which is an example of Bob
