Given that,
Age of Mrs Jones = 55 years
Height = 5'6''
Weight = 140 lb = 63.6 kg
The tube feeding ordered for her provides:
1 cal/mL and 40 grams of protein/1000 mL.
It is infusing at a rate of 50 mL/hour for 24 hour.
Suppose, We need to find her protein needs per day
We know that,
According to the DRI, 0.8 gram of protein per kg of body weight is required protein per day.
Thus,
We need to calculate her protein needs per day
Using formula for protein needs per day
Put the value of weight
Hence, 50.88g of protein are needed per day for Mrs jones.
Answer:
the protective effect breast milk has against obesity decreases if a mother continues nursing beyond one year.
Explanation:
A breast milk can be defined as the milk produced by a woman after delivering a child (childbirth), especially as a source of food and essential nutrients.
The advantages of the breast milk provided by a mother to her child (baby) include the following;
I. It prevents illness and infection because it contains antibodies.
II. It contains colostrum that serves as the first form of immunization for infants or babies.
III. Infants that are given birth to prematurely but who are well breast-fed usually perform better on IQ tests and have overall better cognitive performance.
All of the aforementioned statements are advantages of breast milk except that, the protective effect breast milk has against obesity decreases if a mother continues nursing beyond one year.
This simply means that, when a nursing mother continues to breastfeed her baby for over a year, it reduces its protective effect against obesity.
Answer:
The correct answer will be option-A.
Explanation:
The cardiac cycle of the heart is divided into two phases: contraction (systole) and relaxation (diastole).
The atria and ventricles of the heart contract simultaneously in response to the impulse generated in the SA node. The contraction of the atria and ventricles push the blood or pumps the blood.
The atrial systole pumps blood to ventricles whereas the ventricular systole pumps blood to the body parts.
Thus, option-A is the correct answer.
