d. None of the above

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: B. The woman's BAC will likely be higher if a man and a woman who weigh the same consume the same amount of alcohol.

BAC stands for Blood Alcohol Content or Blood Alcohol Concentration. It is use as a metric of alcohol intoxication for legal or medical purposes.

An Estimated Blood Alcohol Concentration (EBAC)  has this formula:

EBAC = 0.806 * SD * 1.2
             -----------------------  - (MR * DP)
                 BW * Wt

Where:
0.806 is the constant for body water in the blood;
SD - number of standard drink containing 17 g of ethanol
1.2 - a factor to convert the amount in grams to Swedish standards
BW - body water constant (men - 0.58 ; women - 0.49)
Wt - body weight in kg
MR - metabolism constant (men - mean = 0.015; range 0.013-0.017 g/210L ; while women - mean = 0.017; range 0.014-0.021 g/210L)
DP - Drinking period in hours

For example: Both drank 3 Standard drinks; weighs 80kls; DP - 2 hr

man - EBAC = (0.806 * 3 * 1.2) / (0.58 * 80) - (0.015 * 2) = 2.9016 / 46.4 - 0.03 = 0.033

woman - EBAC = (0.806 * 3 * 1.2) / (0.49 * 80) - (0.017 * 2) = 2.9016 / 39.2 - 0.034 = 0.40
 
Answer 2
Answer:

If a man and a woman who weigh the same consume the same amount of alcohol the woman's BAC (Blood Alcohol Concentration) will likely be higher than man.  

Further Explanation

Blood alcohol concentration or blood alcohol content is a percentage of alcohol in a person's bloodstream. There are many factors that affect how alcohol absorb and metabolize such as age, gender, body weight, and health condition.

When a woman and man drink the same amount of alcohol, women likely have higher blood alcohol concentrations than man. It is because the woman body has less amount of water to dilute the alcohol, so the alcohol stays longer in women's body. We can conclude that gender affects alcohol absorption even if they are the same age and weight.

As a result of this, women tend to develop more health problem due to drinking alcohol. Research show that women who drink alcohol at greater risk for damage in the liver and pancreas. For women, drinking a small amount of alcohol will increase the risk of elevated blood pressure.

Use context to determine the meaning of the word rooting as it is used in The Boy in the Striped Pajamas. Write your definition of "rooting" here and tell how you found it.

Answers

Answer:

The word "rooting' is seen in the scene where Bruno had discovered Shmuel in his kitchen, working. He wanted to give something to him to eat so he "opened the refrigerator,about inside it for something to eat".

Explanation:

The word "rooting" can be found in page 169 of the text "The Boy in the tripped Pajamas" by John Boyne. The novel tells the friendship between two young boys, but from different sides of the society- one the son of the Lieutenant and the other, an inmate in the concentration camp overlooked by the lieutenant.

The word "rooting" can generally be used when in support of someone or something, like showing support for or wanting that particular thing to be a success. winner.

But this word is used in a different manner in the text when Bruno was looking in the fridge for any food that he can give to his friend from the "other side of the fence", Shmuel. The word is used here as a form of "looking for", implying that Bruno was looking for something in the fridge.

"Not wanting to look  at Shmuel’s hand any longer, Bruno turned round and opened the  refrigerator, rooting about inside it for something to eat."

Read the following passage and answer the question that follows.The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hydeby Robert Louis StevensonPart 1Mr. Utterson the lawyer was a man of a rugged countenance, that was never lighted by a smile; cold, scanty and embarrassed in discourse; backward in sentiment; lean, long, dusty, dreary, and yet somehow lovable. At friendly meetings, and when the wine was to his taste, something eminently human beaconed from his eye; something indeed which never found its way into his talk, but which spoke not only in these silent symbols of the after-dinner face, but more often and loudly in the acts of his life. He was austere with himself; drank gin when he was alone, to mortify a taste for vintages; and though he enjoyed the theatre, had not crossed the doors of one for twenty years. But he had an approved tolerance for others; sometimes wondering, almost with envy, at the high pressure of spirits involved in their misdeeds; and in any extremity inclined to help rather than to reprove."I incline to, Cain's heresy*," he used to say. "I let my brother go to the devil in his quaintly 'own way.'" In this character, it was frequently his fortune to be the last reputable acquaintance and the last good influence in the lives of down-going men. And to such as these, so long as they came about his chambers, he never marked a shade of change in his demeanour.No doubt the feat was easy to Mr. Utterson; for he was undemonstrative at the best, and even his friendship seemed to be founded in a similar catholicity of good-nature. It is the mark of a modest man to accept his friendly circle ready-made from the hands of opportunity; and that was the lawyer's way. His friends were those of his own blood or those whom he had known the longest; his affections, like ivy, were the growth of time, they implied no aptness in the object. Hence, no doubt, the bond that united him to Mr. Richard Enfield, his distant kinsman, the well-known man about town. It was a nut to crack for many, what these two could see in each other, or what subject they could find in common. It was reported by those who encountered them in their Sunday walks, that they said nothing, looked singularly dull, and would hail with obvious relief the appearance of a friend. For all that, the two men put the greatest store by these excursions, counted them the chief jewel of each week, and not only set aside occasions of pleasure, but even resisted the calls of business, that they might enjoy them uninterrupted.*The biblical story of Cain and Abel is a story about two brothers who gave offerings to God. Abel’s offering was accepted by God, but Cain’s was not. Jealous, Cain killed his brother. When God asked Cain where Abel was, Cain said, “Am I my brother’s keeper?” By saying this, Cain implied that what his brother did was his own business. (Genesis 4:1-16)What may the mention of the Cain and Abel story in the quote in the second paragraph foreshadow?That Mr. Utterson will be involved in violenceThat Mr. Utterson and Mr. Enfield are actually brothersThat this will be a story about Mr. Utterson's sin and forgivenessThat Mr. Utterson and Mr. Enfield are two parts of a trinity of characters
