Answer: The given statement is false.

Explanation:

Women are more prone to abuse as compared to men. This is because we are living in a stereotype society where till now women are considered weak, silent, and easy to harass.

Therefore, due to this women are abused emotionally, mentally and physically. Whereas men still feel that they have the right to do anything and they are powerful than women both physically and emotionally.

As still now head of the family is a male older adult to whom rest of the family members agree.

Hence, we can conclude that the statement male older adults are abused at a higher rate than are women, is false.

A diabetic, who does not utilize insulin properly, will metabolize fats instead of glucose. A condition called diabetic ketoacid
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:The correct answer to the question is option D

THE PH IS BELOW NORMAL (ACIDIC) BECAUSE THE BUFFERING CAPACITY WAS EXCEEDED.

Explanation: When insulin is being utilized well by a diabetic,glucose is metabolized because the insulin administered helps the body cells to pick up glucose from the food we eat and convert it to energy for the body to work with and function well.But when insulin is not being utilized properly by a diabetic,fats are metabolized instead of glucose that is to say that,the cells in the body are not sensitive to the glucose supplied by the food we eat which makes the body to be hypoglycemic (low blood glucose level),the body inorder to raise the blood glucose level starts breaking down stored fats in the body at a rate that is higher than normal inorder to provide energy, the liver then processes the broken down fats into a fuel that is known as ketones, these ketones are released into the blood causing the blood to be acidic,the buffering property of blood on a normal note is suppose to resist the changes in the PH of the blood,but when the buffering capacity is exceeded,there won't be any resistance to the change in the blood PH which will inturn lower the blood PH level making it acidic.

This is exactly what happened to the diabetic being described in the question.

What is the order of cellular respiration reactions quizlet?.
Grace [21]

the citric acid cycle, the electron transport chain, and glycolysis are the 3 steps of respiration.

A glucose molecule gradually decomposes into carbon dioxide and water during cellular respiration.  But far more ATP is later created through a procedure known as oxidative phosphorylation.  A gradient is created as protons are pumped out of the matrix as electrons move down the chain, releasing energy and form ATP as they do so. Oxygen absorbs electrons and takes them at the conclusion of the electron transport chain.
