serving, while Powerade contains 150 milligrams and 35 milligrams. Gatorade contains table sugar and another simple sugar compound, while Powerade’s sugar content comes from high-fructose corn syrup. Gatorade is slightly superior at replacing lost electrolytes but inferior at replacing vitamins (Bryan, 2015). When you perspire, your body loses about 900 to 1400 milligrams of sodium per liter of sweat (Shirreffs & Maughan, 2000). Sodium plays an important role in human’s blood; sufficient sodium

Exercise 12: Some Investigations on Corrosion of Iron I. Introduction Corrosion can be defined as the degradation of a material due to a reaction with its environment. Although this definition is applicable to any type of material, it is usually reserved for metallic alloys, in which the oxidation process M → M+ + e– is facilitated by the presence of suitable electron acceptor. The chemical reactions that take place in corrosion processes are reduction-oxidation (redox) reactions

system that triggers the contraction of the heart muscles. It is responsible for the control of all of the events that occur in the heart during pumping out of blood to the circulation. When there are problems within the heart, blood vessels and electrolytes may cause a disruption of the electrical system and may result in arrhythmia. Arrhythmias are problems with the conduction of electricity in the heart that causes abnormal heart rhythms. There are a number of arrhythmias but not all of them are

Chapter 21: Critical Thinking Exercise # 3 * What specific assessment findings indicate that an older patient being treated for congestive heart failure (CHF) is not responding to Digoxin, Furosemide (Lasix), or Vasodilator therapy? A patient should have increased urine output from diuretic therapy; hypertension/BP should decrease as a result of the diuretic and vasodilator. Heart rate will lower in a patient taking digoxin. The patient should begin to see an improvement/return to baseline

to conserve energy, resulting in serious medical consequences. The body is generally resilient at coping with the stress of eating disordered behaviors, and laboratory tests can generally appear perfect even as someone is at high risk of death. Electrolyte imbalances can kill without warning; so can cardiac arrest. Therefore, it’s incredibly important to understand the many ways that eating disorders affect the body. According to https://www.webmd.com/mental-health/eating-disorders/anorexia-nervosa/understanding-anorexia-basics

Homeostasis is the process of maintaining equilibrium within the internal environment known as extracellular fluid. The cellular mechanism is “how” variable regulate during each step of the feedback loop. People affected with CF have a defective Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Regulator (CFTR) gene, that stop the movement of chloride ions from entering and leaving the cell which is important for salt and water balance on the surfaces. The dysfunction of the CFTR channel inhibits the flow of water which

Photovoltaic Power Systems Compiled by Tracy Dahl Overview Photovoltaic (PV) technology converts one form of energy (sunlight) into another form of energy (electricity) using no moving parts, consuming no conventional fossil fuels, creating no pollution, and lasting for decades with very little maintenance. The use of a widely available and reasonably reliable fuel source—the sun—with no associated storage or transportation difficulties and no emissions makes this technology eminently practicable
