Diazepam is used as a skeletal muscle relaxant and as a sedative administered before surgery, as
well as a treatment for anxiety. For children above the age of 6 months who suffer from anxiety
disorders, diazepam is administered at a reduced dosage. Suppose a child with a body surface area
(BSA) of 0.8 m2 is to receive a dose of diazepam divided into three administrations. Using the BSA
rule and assuming that an adult dose of diazepam is 12 mg, what are the daily dose and the dose
per administration?
mg

- Which of the following is TRUE regarding liver metabolism? Select three of the following: The liver (hepatocytes) has hundreds of functions, such as producing glucose, ketones, fatty acids, cholesterol, proteins, and bile for the rest of the body. Hepatocytes have the GLUT2 antiporter, which allows for secondary active transport of glucose into the cells. Hepatocytes have glucokinase that continually makes glucose 6-phosphate, and it has a lower Km than other hexokinases so it continuously metabolizes glucose when concentrations are low. Glucose 6-phosphate is the "transfer station" in the liver since it can be made my multiple pathways and have multiple fates. The liver converts amino acids to citric acid cycle intermediates or pyruvate for gluconeogenesis. The liver oxidizes fatty acids into glucose, which can be sent to other cells and used for energy or converted into phospholipids and triacylglycerol.arrow_forwardDefine metabolic rate, describe the factors involved in determining an individual’s BMR, and discuss the homeostatic processes that maintain a constant body temperature.arrow_forwardCompare the results for body temperature to results for the body color and perspiration level.
