Rhonda Runsalot is a 20 year old woman. She is running at VO2max. Her heart rate is 200 b/min. Her stroke volume is 100 ml blood

/b. Her arterial oxygen content is 20 ml O2/100 ml blood. Her venous oxygen content is 6 ml O2/100 ml blood. What is her cardiac output?

Answer:

Cardiac output = 20 L/min

Explanation:

The cardiac output of a person refers to the volume of blood the heart pumps in a minute. The normal range for cardiac output is about 4 to 8 L/min. However, this can vary depending on the metabolic needs of the individual at any instant of time, for example, it is higher when exercising than  when resting.

Cardiac output is calculated from the product of the stroke volume in liters/min and the heart rate in beats/min

Cardiac output  = stroke volume * heart rate

For the individual who is running; stroke volume = 100 mL/beat or 0.1 L/beat

heart rate = 200 beats/min

Cardiac output =0.1 L/beat * 200 beats/min

Cardiac output = 20 L/min

How does clearcutting damage an area's ecological integrity?
PSYCHO15rus [73]
Clearcutting results in the removal of topsoil and some animal habits, which can prevent the forest from being able to grow again. While it is cheap, the damage to the food chain and surrounding ecosystem can destroy entire regions.

What are three ways erosion and weathering are the same
Naddik [55]

Answer:

The rock fragments and soil -- sometimes as small as tiny sand particles -- are carried away by wind, water or irrigation. Weathering causes changes in the rock, such as color variations or decomposition, but erosion only moves the sediment from one place to another.

Explanation:

Hope this helps :)

Arrange the events taking place during transcription in order: i) The pre-RNA undergoes processing ii) RNA polymerase moves down
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

RNA polymerase binds to the promoter

Polymerase initiates RNA synthesis at the start point on the template strand

RNA polymerase moves downstream unwinding the DNA

RNA transcript is released and polymerase detaches from the DNA

The pre-RNA undergoes processing

Explanation:

The promoter is the specific DNA sequence that serves as a binding site for RNA polymerase. The enzyme RNA polymerase recognizes the promoter sequence and binds to it to begin the process of RNA synthesis. The process of RNA synthesis begins at the start site where the process of the unwinding of DNA duplex is initiated.

The unwinding separates the two DNA strands at the start site where RNA polymerase begins the process of synthesis of the new RNA strand. The newly formed RNA strand and RNA polymerase are released from the template strand after the termination of the process.

In eukaryotes, the primary RNA transcript undergoes the process of splicing of introns, the addition of poly-A tails and 5' cap which in turn transform it into the mature mRNA.
