Mrs Jones is a 55 year old woman, she is 5'6" tall and weighs 140 lbs (63.6 kg). She has suffered a stroke and is unable to eat; therefore, she is receiving a tube feeding. The tube feeding ordered for her provides: 1 calorie/mL and 40 grams of protein/1000 mL. It is infusing at a rate of 50 mL/hour for 24 hours. Hints: Calorie needs: Since she is close to an ideal weight and is considered noncritical care, use the formula of 30 calories per kg of weight (page 142) Protein needs: Use the RDA for adults of 0.8 gms protein per kg of weight (page 50, note that some experts think that a range of 1.0 to 1.2 may be beneficial) Volume: mL per hour x hours of feeding = total volume of feeding Calories provided by tube feeding: number of calories per mL x total volume of feeding = total calories Protein provided by tube feeding: grams of protein per liter (1000 mL) x total liters of feeding provided = grams of protein. [Liters of formula = volume of formula / 100.] 1

Scenario 5 1) take 10 red and 10 black beans and place them, mixed, on the table. record the starting phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your starting population in the table provided (generation 0). 2) act as a predator. “capture” as many organisms as you can until you have reduced the population to three organisms. put them aside. at this point, the predators die. 3) the remaining organisms each produce 2 clonal offspring. multiply your organisms accordingly and allow them to mix on the table. calculate and record the resultant phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your population in the table provided (generation 1). 4) repeat the reproduction event, allowing each of your organisms to produce 2 clonal offspring. calculate and record the resultant phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your population in the table provided (generation 2). 5) repeat the reproduction event, allowing each of your organisms to produce 2 clonal offspring. calculate and record the resultant phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your population in the table provided (generation 3).
