The answer is False: A primary deficiency occurs when the body is unable to use the nutrients consumed efficiently.

Explanation:

  • A primary deficiency actually refers to a situation where there is an inadequate intake of nutrients in the diet. This means that the body is not receiving enough of a particular nutrient from the food consumed.
  • The statement in the question describes a secondary deficiency, which occurs when the body is unable to use the nutrients consumed efficiently due to issues such as malabsorption, metabolic problems, or other health conditions.

Summary: The statement provided in the question is false because it incorrectly describes a primary deficiency. A primary deficiency is due to inadequate intake, not the body's inability to use nutrients efficiently.

A graphing calculator is recommended. Use the Squeeze Theorem to show that the limit as x approaches 0 of x^2 cos(12 pi x) = 0. Illustrate by graphing the functions f(x)=-x^2, g(x)=x^2 cos(12 pi x), and h(x)=x^2 on the same screen. Let f(x)=-x^2, g(x)=x^2 cos(12 pi x), and h(x)=x^2. Then ? ≤ cos(12 pi x) ≤ ? => ? ? ≤ x^2 cos(12 pi x) ≤ ? . Since the limit as x approaches 0 of f(x) = the limit as x approaches 0 of h(x) = 0 , by the Squeeze Theorem we have the limit as x approaches 0 of g(x) = 0
