Answer: The procedure RJ is preparing to undergo is called KIDNEY TRANSPLANT.
Explanation:
RJ was diagnosed with renal failure for the past 10 years. For him to have been in this condition for a period of 10 years depicts chronic renal failure. This is a type of kidney disease in which there is progressive loss of function of more and more nephrons that gradually decreases overall kidney function with time. The following can cause chronic renal failure:
--> Metabolic disorders: these include diabetes mellitus, obesity
--> Hypertension
--> Infections: Example is tuberculosis
--> Urinary tract obstruction
--> Congenital disorders
In chronic renal failure, the irreversible decrease in the number of functional nephrons eventually leads to KIDNEY TRANSPLANT.
Kidney transplant is a surgical procedure which is performed by a nephrologist where by a kidney from a compatible donor is transferred to a recipient. This procedure requires only one kidney from the donor, which when surgically implanted in RJ it would help perform blood filtration.
Cross-contamination refer to a condition where microorganisms are unintended transferred from one subject to another and causing harmful effect to them
One thing that is NOT an example of cross-contamination is : food is prepared one day in advance
Answer: (a) an 8-ounce (237 ml) serving of orange juice that contains 125 milligrams of vitamin C and has 111 calories
Explanation:
Nutrient density or nutritional density reflects the ratio of the nutrient content to the total energy content of the food. Therefore the nutrient density is expressed in terms of the amount of a specific nutrient (in weight) per 1000 calories or joules
Comparing the nutritional density of the two drinks;
(a) For an 8-ounce (237 ml) serving of orange juice that contains 125 milligrams of vitamin C and has 111 calories(111/1000 Kcal) or 0.111Kcal
nutritional density = 125mg/0.111Kcal = 1126.126 mg/Kcal
(b) For an 8-ounce serving of a sport drink that contains 175 milligrams of vitamin C and has 250 calories(250/1000 Kcal) or 0.250Kcal
nutritional density = 175/0.250Kcal =700 mg/Kcal.
Therefore, an 8-ounce (237 ml) serving of orange juice that contains 125 milligrams of vitamin C and has 111 calories has a greater nutritional density of Vitamin C <em>than an 8-ounce serving of a sport drink that contains 175 milligrams of vitamin C and has 250 calories.</em>
