Our bodies digest the food we eat by mixing it with fluids (acids and enzymes) in the stomach. When the stomach digests food, the carbohydrate (sugars and starches) in the food breaks down into another type of sugar, called glucose. The stomach and small intestines absorb the glucose and then release it into the bloodstream. Once in the bloodstream, glucose can be used immediately for energy or stored in our bodies, to be used later.

If I want to run a mile in 8:23 (minutes:seconds) what would be the best plan? I have to run 19 laps to make a full mile. Please
jarptica [38.1K]
To do this, you would have to be running at least 26 seconds per lap. I have been running cross country running for the past two years, and my tip for making this time is just to consistently run a set pace for the laps. If you stop to walk, you will lose your momentum and it will be hard to start running again. The first few laps are going to be the hardest, but most of the pain comes from a psychological level. Once you get past the first few laps, you won’t be as worried about walking, and you could run the rest. It won’t be easy, but I highly suggest for you to run the whole time. This is the most efficient way to run the mile in 8 minutes and 23 seconds.

If you're planning to drink, you should?
mixas84 [53]
If you are planning to drink, you should be responsible in many ways. If you are going out to drink with friends, pick a designated driver ( a member of the group that abstains from alcohol in order to drive the others safely). Try to limit your drink intake unless you dont mind getting sick later. You can drink and still have fun with just a buzz and not full blown drunk. However, that is your choice. If everyone in the group wants to drink, I would suggest drinking somewheres that you know you casn crash at so you wont have to drive. I:f you go to a party or a bar, never leave your drink unattended because someone might slip something in it when you are not looking. Of corse you need to be of proper age to drink and never give alcohol to minors. Always eat something before you drink so you wont get drunk too fast. Never drink and drive!!! If you go out drinking by yourself or with people you just met, you really should stay as alert as you can. set a limit for yourself and stick to uit. If you know you can only handle 3 or 4 drinks then dont go over that limit. I always save the tabs off the cans I drink or tops off of the bottles and put it in my pocket so I can keep track of how much I drank. If you are on any type of medication, it is vitally important to do some research and see if it is even safe for you to drink while on your medication. It's nice to drink and have fun but do it safely. Advil or tylenol will help with the hangover you probably will have the next day. Believe it or not, eating bread wiull help you sober up, as well as drinking water. If you go out ot drink and absolutly have no one to drive you home or pick you up from where you are then stay the night if possible (if its at a persons house that you trust) and if that doesn't work then STOP drinking an hour before you want to drive home. ABSOLUTELY NO DRIVING while you are drunk. If you can barely stand up or keep your eyes open or if your eyes are blurry in any way, then that's a sign for you not to drive and sober up!!!! If nessasarry, sit in your car, maybe nap if you need to but do not attempt to drive. You are smart enough to know

A man has been a coal miner for 30 years. For the past 3 years, he has had progressively worsening dyspnea and has been diagnose
Yuri [45]

Answer:

<em>His decreased residual volume and decreased lung compliance contribute to his altered ventilation. </em>

Explanation:

Pneumoconioses are distinguished by reduced residual volume and impaired compliance with the lungs.

Pneumoconiosis involves asbestosis, silicosis, and the pneumoconiosis (CWP) of coal workers.

The most prevalent mineral dusts proven to cause pneumoconiosis in the workplace are asbestos, silica (rock and sand dust), and coal dust.

Cough and shortness of breath are by far the most common symptoms of pneumoconiosis. The threat is usually greater when people are exposed to high levels and/or long periods of time from mineral dusts.

One risk factor is the insufficient or inconsistent usage of personal protective equipment (PPE) such as respirators (specially designed breathing masks), as avoiding inhalation of dusts would also avoid pneumoconiosis.

A patient exhibiting respiratory distress as well as a tracheal shift should be evaluated for?
kolbaska11 [484]

A patient exhibiting respiratory distress as well as tracheal shift should be evaluated for pneumothorax.

<h3>What is pneumothorax? </h3>

This condition is also called collapsed lung. In this condition, the air from the lungs escapes into the pleural space around the lung.

This is caused due to an injury to the lung tissue and increased pressure on the lung tissue. This results in the leaking of air into the pleural space.

This condition can be traumatic or nontraumatic.

  1. Traumatic pneumothorax - When it is the result of an injury.
  2. Nontraumatic pneumothorax - When is the result of an already existing lung condition like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Therefore, a patient exhibiting respiratory distress and tracheal shift should be evaluated for pneumothorax.
