Males usually have a higher level of hematocrits that females as well as they have testosterone that effects their hematocrit levels as well. 3. List the hematocrits for the healthy male and female living in Denver (approximately one mile above sea level) and indicate whether they are normal or whether they indicate anemia or polycythemia. Male is 55 and the females level was 53. Their levels both indicate polycythemia.

To calculate the hematocrit level, centrifuge the blood in a microhematocrit (capillary) tube at 10,000 rpm for about 5 minutes, separating the blood into layers. Find the PCV by calculating the volume of red blood cells divided by the total volume of the sample; you can also measure the lengths of the layers if using the tube. Calculating the hematocrit using an automated analyzer by multiplying the red cell count by the mean cell volume is more accurate because the PCV may also include plasma surrounding the red blood cells. The hematocrit can be estimated by tripling the hemoglobin concentration and changing the units to percentage. However, there are cases where the hematocrit will not be accurate.
I did this five times with an amount of H2O2 then changed it by 2 mL higher while keeping the amount of the cow liver the same and continued to do everything else the same. The experiment showed that the H2O2 did create a large amount of pressure when mixed with the cow liver. For example, the highest amount of pressure created by the 10 mL H2O2 was 119.83 units while the highest for the 18 mL reaction created 127.3 units of pressure. Also I observed that sometimes the pressure created from the reaction was great enough to pop the pressure sensor off the flask. This showed that my hypothesis was indeed correct and that the data was showing what I expected.
Department of Health and Human Services, 2014). Lake County breast cancer death rate of 138.5 should be considered for improvement for HP 2020 recommendation of 20.7 per 100,000 population (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2014). Lake County death rate from cardiovascular diseases at 230.6 can be improved to HP 2020 recommendation of 103.4 per 100,000 population (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2014). Lake County death rate of 0.3 from AIDS/HIV infection is significantly lower from HP 2020 recommendations of 3.3 per 100,000 population. The death rate in Lake County from diabetes at 27 is convincingly better than HP 2020 recommendation of 66.6 per 100,000 population (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services,
At the second titration, the experiment was exactly the same as the first titration but the H2SO4 solution was used to instead of the HCl solution. The same step as the first experiment was repeated. In the third experiment, the buret had used Ba (OH) 2 thoroughly rinsed three times. 10mL of HCl

According to Schull’s drug handbook (2006), Phytonadione acts on the liver to promote the production of active prothrombin, proconvertin, plasma thromboplastin component, and Stuart factor. In other words, it promotes blood clotting. The safe dose for neonate is 0.5 to 1 mg injected intramuscularly within one hour of birth. Adverse reactions include: hyperbilirubinemia, pain, swelling, tenderness at injection site, and anaphylactoid reactions. Because neonates in the first few hours of life usually don’t have adequate vitamin K in their blood stream, physician often prescribes Phytonadione to prevent hemorrhaging of the newborn.
7/20/2015 7/20/2015 Unit 2 ASSIGNMENT: CHOLESTEROL: A PATIENT CONVERSATION Kaplan University Triglycerides are the main elements of natural fats and oils, and high concentrations in the blood indicate an elevated risk of stroke your physician will test for this while fasting you want this reading to be less than 150. Cholesterol is produced in the liver and makes all the cholesterol you need and circulates it through the blood and comes from foods that have saturated fats Cholesterol when fasting should be under 200 there is HDL "Good cholesterol" Ideally you want this to be between 40 and 60, but the higher the better. HDL transports LDL "Bad cholesterol" to the liver to be destroyed "Bad cholesterol" that builds up on arterial walls. The “Bad Cholesterol” or LDL should be under 100 when fasting. High cholesterol is due to lack of physical activity, diet, being overweight, high blood cholesterol can be hereditary, as well as age and gender can play a role.
To get accurate result, this titration process are repeated for another two times. The entire procedure by which we obtain the molarity of a solution of one substance (NaOH) from an accurately known amount of another substance (KHP) is called standardization. The average molarity of the sodium hydroxide solution will be used in the next experiment. The second experiment is conducted to determine the molarity of acetic acid and mass percent in vinegar. 100mL of distilled water was added to 10mL of vinegar and followed by 1mL of NaOH was pour into the solution.
