Given: Drug medications are often prescribed on the basis of body mass. the adult dosages of elixophylin, a drug used to treat asthma, is 6mg/kg of body mass.
To find: The dosage amount for a person weighing 160 lb.
Method: Unitary method of proportions
Solution:
First we'll convert the weight of person from imperial unit to metric unit.
1 pound = 0.45 kilograms
160 pounds = 0.45 x 160 = 72 kg
∴ The weight of person in kilograms is 72 kg.
Now, a elixophylin dosage of 6 mg is administered to 1 kg body mass.
For 72 kg body mass, dosage will be,
= 432 mg
∴ The person of 160 lb body weight will receive 432 mg of elixophylin dosage.
<span>A DNA nucleotide is composed of deoxyribose sugar, which is bonded to both a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base. They have the nitrogenous base bonded to their 1' carbon and a phosphate group to their 5' carbon. DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid, and you can see that it has deoxyribose, instead of ribose, in it from the name.</span>
P450scc or cholesterol side chain cleavage enzyme is an enzyme that converts cholesterol into pregnenolone (the precursor for steroids). The kinds of steroid hormones are mineralocorticoids (i.e. aldosterone) glucocorticoids (i.e. cortisol), and sex steroids (i.e. testosterone, estrogen). In the event where P450scc is blocked, then there will be no production of mineralocorticoids, glucocorticoids, and sex steroids. There will be no production of aldosterone, cortisol, estradiol, testosterone, and progesterone. This disease is called Lipoid Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia.
Answer:
The correct option is B
Explanation:
Dew is the water droplets found on objects outside of an enclosed/covered area in the morning. Dew occurs as a result of condensation of moisture in the cold atmosphere (at night) which is converted to liquid when it touches objects of higher thermal energy; converting the water in the moist air into water droplets known.
From a scientific standpoint, false- evolution must be passed on from generation to generation.
