Experiment 4.5 Measuring the energy content of a “Dorito” and Popcorn. Using the method as described on page 46 of the textbook‚ measure the energy content of a Dorito and a “Popped” corn kernel. Aim: 1. Compare your results of each food and determine which will give the greatest energy per gram. 2. How much of each food would you need to boil 250mL of water? Hypothesis: (Before you begin‚ what do you think will be the conclusion.) As the Dorito is heated‚ it will release much more heat

German Volume Training German Volume Training isn’t rocket science. There’s no elaborate formulas to figure out‚ and no training techniques to be mastered. GVT is built around three simple‚ core principles: 1. One Exercise. You perform one exercise per body part. That’s it. Stick with heavier‚ compound-style lifts that tax major muscle groups. Because you will be performing a limited number ofexercises per week‚ proper exercise selection is critical in maximizing the effects of GVT. 2. 100

Respiratory acidosis is a condition where body is unable to eliminate all the carbon dioxide within the lungs; this condition results with the body fluids becoming too acidic usually within the patient’s blood. The PCO2 of respiratory acidosis is greater than 45mmHg and the pH would be less than 7.36. (Graham‚ T. (2006). Respiratory alkalosis is when the levels of carbon dioxide in the blood‚ mainly due to breathing excessively are too low. Levels of respiratory alkalosis is a PCO2 of less than 35
