Charlie had some tests done recently to assess his risk for certain diseases. the results showed that he has a waist circumference of 47 inches, a bmi of 29, and a normal skin fold measurement test. what should charlie do? a. charlie is a little too thin, he is most likely underweight, and he needs to consult a dietician or doctor to him see how to modify his diet to gain some weight. b. charlie should repeat the caliper test because it does not fit with the other information, and he should start an exercise routine and diet to reduce his body fat. c. charlie should immediately start an exercise and diet program because all his tests indicate that he is extremely obese, which puts him at risk for several diseases. d. charlie should repeat the bmi because the other tests were normal, and he should avoid changing his body composition because he'll be too overweight.

As you sit in the library with your friend studying for your weekly quiz on the integumentary system, you come upon an article about the hazards of prolonged exposure to the sun's rays. your curious nature leads you to research the subject further. you're fascinated to learn that minimal exposure to the sun allows you skin to manufacture vitamin d, which is important to maintain homeostasis. you also read that although sunscreen can protect you from the ultraviolet (uv) rays of the sun, some medications can actually increase a person's sensitivity to the sunlight.

Poliovirus is an rna virus of the picornavirus group, which uses its rna as mrna. at its 5' end, the rna genome has a viral protein (vpg) instead of a cap. this is followed by anontranslated leader sequence, and then a single long protein-coding region (~7000 nucleotides), followed by a poly-a tail. observations were made that used radioactive amino acid analogues. short period use of the radioactive amino acids result in labeling of only very long proteins, while longer periods of labeling result in several different short polypeptides. what conclusion is most consistent with the results of the radioactive labeling experiment? a) host cell ribosomes only translate the viral code into short polypeptides.b) the rna is only translated into a single long polypeptide, which is then cleaved into shorter ones.c) the rna is translated into short polypeptides, which are subsequently assembled into large ones.d) the large radioactive polypeptides are coded by the host, whereas the short ones are coded for by the virus.
