Eating food provides enough fuel for your body to live for only one day.<br><br> True<br> False
Korvikt [17]

Answer: False.

Explanation:

<em>The time that a person can live without feeding varies according to the age, physical condition, and health of the person</em>. There have been reports of people who spend even <u>94 days without eating</u>, and the estimated average is 40 to 70 days without eating before perishing.

Another factor to consider is the absence or presence of water. <u>Although the human being can live many days without food, without water time is limited to a few days</u>. Therefore water is more important for life.

<em>I hope this information can help you.</em>

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

1) eating salty food= c) increases water reabsorption

2) blood loss= a) increases both water and Na+ reabsorption

3) alcohol consumption= a) Increases both water and Na+ reabsorption

4) Aldosterone release= a) Increases both water and Na+ reabsorption

5) Severe diarrhea= a) Increases both water and Na+ reabsorption

6) Sweating=  a) Increases both water and Na+ reabsorption

7)   diabetes insipidus= c) Increases water reabsorption

8)  caffeine consumption= b) does not increase water or Na+ reabsorption.

9) ADH secretion= c) increases water reabsorption

10) dehydration due to inadequate water intake= c) increases water reabsorption.

Explanation:

1) eating salty food

An acute renal Na+ conversion occurs because of eating salty food and is mediated by angiotensin II enzymes and aldosterone. Aldosterone promotes the conversion of sodium in sweating and feces. Increased water intake is also indicative of diluting excess of Na+ also known as dilutional hyponatremia.  

2) blood loss

Blood loss cause release of angiotensin II enzyme which has a vasoconstrictor effect and immediately improves blood pressure. This enzyme causes constriction of both afferent and efferent arterioles in the kidneys and reduces the glomerular filtration rate (GFR). As a result, decrease in fluid loss from kidneys helps in preserving the blood pressure.

3) alcohol consumption

Low sodium blood levels are reported in alcoholic patients due to electrolyte disorder and reset of cerebral osmolarity.

4) Aldosterone release

Aldosterone is also known as the salt-retaining hormone and is released in response to decrease Na+ and increased K+ in plasma. Therefore, Na+ reabsorption by the nephrons is promoted by water retention.

5) severe diarrhea

Severe diarrhea is also managed by secretion of aldosterone from the pituitary gland. This hormone is responsible for increased water and sodium reabsorption from the distal convoluted tubule in the kidneys.

6) sweating

Sweating is responsible for loss of electrolytes i.e. Na+ and Cl. Hence, aldosterone hormone is released which increases the reabsorption of both Na+ and water.

7) diabetes insipidus

People suffering from nephrogenic diabetes insipidus excretes large amount of diluted urine and has severe dehydration. ADH is released to control the excessive urination and reduce hypernatremia.

8) caffeine consumption

Caffeine containing beverages does not cause serious fluid loss or increase Na+ retention. However, they may produce a mild diuretic effect and increase urgency to urinate but does not cause dehydration.

9) ADH secretion

ADH is produced by the hypothalamus in response to increase in blood osmolarity and causes water retention by decreasing urine volume.

10) dehydration due to inadequate water intake

Chronic regulation of increased plasma sodium is performed with release of anti-diuretic hormone (ADH). Na+ imbalance occurs due to abnormal water intake and decrease amount of water is indicative of hypernatremia. Hence, increased thirst mechanism is initiated by ADH and fluid retention is observed.

Which individual will probably have the highest blood alcohol concentration after consuming three drinks in 1 hour?
svlad2 [7]

A. a woman with high body weight and high percent body fat.

<h3>Body fat</h3>

The body fat percentage (BFP) of a person or other living thing is calculated by dividing the entire mass of fat by the total body mass and multiplying the result by 100. To sustain life and the ability to reproduce, the body needs essential fat. Because of the needs of childbearing and other hormonal activities, women have a higher amount of essential body fat than males do. Adipose tissue, which has a protective function for internal organs in the chest and belly, is the source of storage body fat. Body fat % can be measured with calipers or by using a bioelectrical impedance analysis technique, among other options.

Of the following people, who will probably have the highest blood alcohol concentration after consuming three drinks in 1 hour?

A. a woman with high body weight and high percent body fat

B. a man with low body weight and low percent body fat

C. a man with high body weight and high percent body fat

D. a woman with high body weight and low percent body fat
