Answer:

What amino acids do is aid growth, cell replacement, and cell and tissue repair.

Explanation:

Amino acids are the units that make up the structure of proteins, necessary for the structure and function of living beings.

Due to the structural function of proteins —capable of forming tissues such as muscle and collagen that are present throughout the body— it can be said that amino acids contribute to growth and development. In addition, amino acids and proteins can assist in cell renewal and repair of cells and tissues.

The other options do not correspond to functions of the amino acids:

Help the body use certain vitamins and create cell energy is a function of the lipids.
Provide energy and help cells get energy from other nutrients is a function of carbohydrates.
Turn carbohydrates into proteins, fats, and fatty acids is not a amino acid function.

Answer:

La fuente principal de energía para casi todos los asiáticos, africanos y latinoamericanos son los carbohidratos. Los carbohidratos constituyen en general la mayor porción de su dieta, tanto como el 80 por ciento en algunos casos. Por el contrario, los carbohidratos representan únicamente del 45 al 50 por ciento de la dieta en muchas personas en países industrializados.

Los carbohidratos son compuestos que contienen carbono, hidrógeno y oxígeno en las proporciones 6:12:6. Durante el metabolismo se queman para producir energía, y liberan dióxido de carbono (CO2) y agua (H2O). Los carbohidratos en la dieta humana están sobre todo en forma de almidones y diversos azúcares. Los carbohidratos se pueden dividir en tres grupos:

monosacáridos, ejemplo, glucosa, fructosa, galactosa;

disacáridos, ejemplo, sacarosa (azúcar de mesa), lactosa, maltosa;

polisacáridos, ejemplo, almidón, glicógeno (almidón animal), celulosa.

a patient has heavy skin and muscle (myogenic) that is drooping down and blocking his vision due to myogenic ptosis of the upper

Anna11 [10]

In the given scenario, icd-10-cm code reported is H02.423.

What is icd-10-cm code?

The ICD-10-CM is a morbidity classification developed by the United States that is used to classify diagnoses and reasons for visits in all health care settings.

Upper eyelid drooping is caused by a muscle disorder (myogenic). Look for Ptosis/eyelid in the ICD-10-CM Alphabetical Index, which states to see Blepharoptosis.

Look for Blepharoptosis and you'll be directed to H02.423, where the sixth character indicates laterality.

The sixth character of three stands for bilateral. There is only one code for both eyelids, not two separate codes.

This, this should be the icd-10-cm code.

Evidence suggests that individuals who are overweight actually expend more calories than persons who are of normal weight.

podryga [215]

Answer:

The best answer to the question: Evidence suggests that individudals who are overweight actually expend more calories than persons who are of normal weight, would be, A: True.

Explanation:

In recent research studies, especially carried out in Canada, it has been found out that the general belief that obese, or overweight, people, are couch potatoes and it is because of this that they are the way they are, may be wrong. Essentially, these studies followed groups of people and compared obese vs normal-weight people and found out two things: first, obese people move more in terms of steps, than normal-weight people, and two, and most amazingly, overweight people expend more calories than normal-weight people simply because their bodies, given their sheer size, have to use more energy to simply move. Thus, these studies showed that, although not by much, individuals with problems of weight do spend a bit more calories per activity, than normal-weight people.
