Table 1: Approximate oxygen stores (by % of total oxygen) in various tissues for generic deep-diving marine mammals and humans. In reading this table, for example, 46% of the oxygen stored in an average human body
is stored in the lungs, 33% is stored in the blood, etc.

Note: These are generic values and do not account for sex, species, and individual differences.
1. (5 pts) Use the table above and the following information to calculate how much oxygen is stored in
a 100 kg human body. Show all your work (you can take a picture of your handwritten notes and
paste it in, if you like). Hint: first calculate the amount of oxygen (ml) stored in the blood using the
information below, then extrapolate the amount stored in the entire body using the table above.
On average, humans are about 7% blood by weight
The average density of whole blood for humans is about 1,060 g/L
An average liter of human blood can carry about 200 ml of oxygen when saturated

Tara sees a commercial for a brand of pills that promise to boost energy and people perform better in work and school. as people in the commercial talk about how much better they feel when taking the pill, tara notices a message on the bottom of the screen that reads, "this pill is not approved by doctors and has not been tested in controlled experiments." what is the best conclusion that tara should make about the commercial? it is making scientific claims based on subjective observations. it is making scientific claims based on opinions instead of pseudoscientific facts. it is making pseudoscientific claims based on objective observations. it is making pseudoscientific claims based on opinions instead of scientific facts.

Where does all the water go? according to the environmental protection agency (epa), in a typical wetland environment, 39% of the water is outflow; 46% is seepage; 7% evaporates; and 8% remains as water volume in the ecosystem (reference: united states environmental protection agency case studies report 832-r-93-005). chloride compounds as residuals from residential areas are a problem for wetlands. suppose that in a particular wetland environment the following concentrations (mg/l) of chloride compounds were found: outflow, 60.4; seepage, 73.7; remaining due to evaporation, 26.4; in the water volume, 46.8. (a) compute the weighted average of chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) for this ecological system. (round your answer to one decimal place.) mg/l (b) suppose the epa has established an average chlorine compound concentration target of no more than 58 mg/l. does this wetlands system meet the target standard for chlorine compound concentration? yes. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is too high. yes. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is lower than the target. no. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is lower than the target. no. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is too high.
