The t=-1.99 is significant. It represents the difference of Health Functioning between the men and women. This number shows that there was very little difference between the men and the women. The p value is .049, although close to the alpha score, is still less than the alpha of 0.05. 4.
What is Sam’s reaction if he becomes unsure of a situation? 1. Physical assessment of subject. Sam was born September 15, 2010 via c-section due to breech presentation. As of his last doctor appointment, Sam’s height is 31 inches, weight is 24 pounds, and has a head circumference of 19.5 inches.
Dr. Strickland placed Henry on a “blood thinning” drug called warfarin, which works by preventing clots from forming. Henry returned to his retirement plans but quickly found himself back in Dr. Strickland’s office after suffering from frequent nose bleeds. A laboratory test called an INR (International Normalized Ratio) was performed. This test measures the time it takes for blood to clot and compares it to an average. The test revealed that the time it took for Henry’s blood to clot was well above what would be expected for the dose of warfarin that he had been placed on.
Despite the fact that girls do better than boys at school, boys have higher expectations and higher self esteem than girls, a gap that continues with each year of schooling. Does this finding conform with your own experience? How would you explain this? 4. Make up two lists—what women can do to prevent rape and what men can do.
Maintaining high levels of HDL is good. The lower your levels the higher risk of heart disease. Desirable levels for men are 60 or above. Less than 40 is at risk. Your level is a 33.
There are three different values of heart rates; resting HR (at a steady state/pre exercise), Working HR (working at 65%- 75%, during exercise) and max HR which is the maximum your heart should pump at for extended periods of time and is calculated by 220 minus your age. Generally, the fitter you are the lower your resting HR will be, likewise if you are overweight or unfit you will, in result, gain a higher resting HR. The average resting heart rate for adults is 60-80bpm, and the normal HR for conditioned/trained athletes is 40-60bpm. This demonstrates their high level of cardiovascular fitness, and how it lowers their HR. During exercise your heart will rise and then level off, depending on your level of fitness.
Nevertheless even though you fall below it you have not dropped into the low category, and please to say your blood pressure is at a good level. However if it does rise considering most adults within the UK have blood pressure readings in the range from 120 over 80 (120/80) to 140 over 90 (140/90) Even though this is not deemed as high blood the risk of cardiovascular disease increases . For example, someone with a blood pressure level of 135 over 85 (135/85) is twice as likely to have a heart attack or stroke as someone with a reading of 115 over 75
Obesity itself cannot solely be blamed on the high consumption of soda or sugary-drinks, but there is a strong correlation between the two. Boston Children’s Hospital preformed a study with 224 overweight, or obese, high school students. Half of the recipients received free home deliveries of zero-calorie drinks along with water; others received a fifty dollar gift card. According to this study, “after one year, the gift card recipients had gained more weight than those who got the calorie-free drinks” (“Getting Fat on Sugary-Drinks” 8). The evidence provided in this study concludes that soda can be a leading factor in obesity rates, and that water or lower-calorie drinks can help prevent obesity.
Gender differences in visuospatial abilities: what factors play an important role? Abstract It has been argued that through tests such as a Line judgment test, one that measures visuospatial ability, males score higher than females. This report measures speed and accuracy in the Line Judgment test, and includes a separate Driving test which also measures visuospatial ability, and investigates what factors play an important role in these two experiments. Undergraduate males (N = 39) outperformed undergraduate females (N = 49). Agreeing with past research, males were found to be better at both tasks, with female reaction times, in the Line judgment task, found to be larger.
To understand why athletes have turned to such extreme measures, one must know more about performance enhancing drugs. Performance-enhancing drugs are substances used by athletes to improve their performances in the sports in which they engage. These drugs are known as anabolic-androgen steroids or just anabolic steroids and are taken by athletes “ to increase their muscle mass and strength”(CNN). However, there is an anabolic steroid that is already produced in the male body which is called testosterone. Testosterone has two main effects on the body, androgenic and anabolic.
