The alveoli are air sacs inside our lungs where gas CO2
exchange occurs between our bodies and the air in the
atmosphere.
Based on the data in the table, which gas is present in the
least amount in both the atmosphere and in the lungs?

Question 9
Patients with congestive heart failure often retain fluid 9.2% increase
because the heart is functioning inadequately. This is a
warning sign, so these patients are advised to watch for
swelling in their ankles and rapid weight gain, which is
usually from the excess fluid. As an example, a patient
who usually weighs 130 lbs. reports that today she is
feeling "puffy" and her weight is 142 lbs.
The amount of change in her weight represents what
percentage of her usual body weight?
Large Type A neurons conduct nervous signals at speeds 800%
around 120 meters per second. Somewhat smaller Type B
neurons conduct nervous signals at speeds around 15
meters per second.
By percent, how much faster are the Type A neurons?
One of the indicators of cardiovascular health is pulse 70 BPM/Yes
recovery time after vigorous exercise. There are many
ideas about health and pulse recovery rate, but most
people should see their pulse rate return to within 0-10
beats of normal resting pulse rate after four minutes.
Kyree's resting pulse is 65 beats per minute (BPM). He
exercises every day for a week and takes his pulse after 4
minutes each time. The numbers he records are: 77, 73, 71,
67, 71, 66, and 65.
What is the mean of his readings, and is he within the
target goal?
A man's basal metabolic rate (BMR, minimal energy use 61.5%
while awake) is 1,600 calories. He estimates that his total
calorie use each day is 2,600 calories.
What percentage of his total calorie use is his BMR?
, In physiology, the term "normal" is really used to refer to 98.25°F
the average, or mean value, and there can be
tremendous variation in the values from one person to
another; so what is "normal" for you may not be "normal"
for me. Also, a person's body temperature fluctuates
throughout the day and can normally vary by one degree
or more depending on the time of day and the person's
activities. Your instructor has been feeling a bit tired lately
and has been monitoring her temperature with the
following results: 98.2°F, 97.4°F, 97.3°F, 98.5°F, 99.0°F, and
99.1°F
Calculate your instructor's average (mean) temperature,
and determine if it is normal or not
Tatiana measures the length of her femur as 16 inches. She 26%
also measures her height as five foot one and one half
inches, or 61.5 inches.
What is her femur's percentage of her height?
Average tidal volume (the amount of air we breathe at 8.3%
rest) is about 500 ml. Total lung volume is about 6,000 ml.
What percentage is tidal volume of our total lung
volume?
A classmate received a score of 66 on an exam that was 88%
worth 75 points. What percent does this score represent?
Human cells without mitochondria (such as erythrocytes) 5.5%
can only produce two adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
molecules when they break down a sugar (glucose)
molecule for energy. Cells with mitochondria can
potentially produce about 36 ATP from that sugar.
Expressed as a percentage, how does the energy
efficiency of cells that do not have mitochondria
compare to those who do?
Normal fasting blood sugar levels should be below 100 113.5 mg/dL/prediabetes
mg/dL. Levels that consistently test above 125 mg/dL
indicate diabetes. Levels between 100-125 mg/dL may be
suggestive of "prediabetes."
Patient X has had several blood tests and his fasting
blood sugar levels are: 91, 131, 110, and 122.
What is Patient X's mean blood sugar, and in which
category is he?
