The average 2-year-old needs about 0.55 grams of protein per weight in a pound. Since the child is 24 pounds in weight, he or she needs 12 grams of protein per day.

Answer: 8.64 grams  

Explanation:

The average intake of protein in the body is dependent on the weight of the body. The RDT of protein is that 0.8 grams per kilogram or in terms of pounds it is 0.36 grams per pound.

The child weighs 11.0 kg which is equivalent to 24 pounds. Then the average intake of proteins will be 24*0.8 which is 8.64 grams of protein.

This amount of protein will be enough for the child to carry out daily routine functions.

How does the structure of a nephron directly relate to function of the kidney
VLD [36.1K]
Nephrons are the filtering structures of the kidneys. The kidneys contain millions and millions of these tiny filtering structures that are responsible for cleaning the blood. Nephrons are responsible for removing excess water, wastes, and other substances in the blood that are not needed by the body. They also return necessary substances (e.g. sodium, potassium, phosphorus) whenever the body runs low in supply.  

If these nephrons are damaged, blood will not be properly filtered. As a result, the kidney will have different diseases and this might lead to kidney and multiple organ failure.       <span> </span>

Anettt [7]

Helium does not react with any other substances, thus the substance’s internal structure is never greatly affected and thus helium cannot have any chemical properties.
