Answer:

A urinary catheter

Explanation:

A urinary catheter is a tube that drains urine from the bladder. It is used in conditions such as incontinence, urinary retention or following  a gynecologic surgery.

The urinary catheter, through the opening for the passage of urine called the <em>urethra</em>, is passed into the <em>bladder</em>. The catheter is connected to a bag that collects the urine. This bag could come in a small or a big size, depending on the purpose of usage and the time of the day being used.

The lack of control of urination, coupled with the fact that the client's rheumatoid arthritis makes it more difficult to move, makes an alternative means of passing urine important. The urinary bag does  not require any form of movement to be functional therefore, with a urinary catheter and bag, the patient is stable and can effectively be given treatment to alleviate the pain and manage the incontinence.

Describe how protists are helpful and harmful to humans and other organisms
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Plant-like protists produce almost one-half of the oxygen on the planet through photosynthesis. Other protists decompose and recycle nutrients that humans need to live.  For example, medicines made from protists are used in treatment of high blood pressure, digestion problems, ulcers, and arthritis. Fungi are very important ecologically, because they are one of the most important decomposers in most ecosystems. They help to break down plant fibers such as dead leaves and wood and allow the nutrients to be released into the soil. Fungi are useful to humans because they have economic value.

Bryophytes (non-vascular plants) ________. are more similar to ancestral green algae than are vascular plants can be included in
choli [55]
I think in this case Bryophytes are more similar to ancestral green algae than are vascular plants. These plants lack a vascular system for transporting water and minerals, Unlike angiosperms they do not produce flowers, fruits, or seeds. They also lack true leaves, roots, and . stems, They appear as small, green mats of vegetation found i damp habitats. Lack of vascular tissues means that these plants must remain in moist environments.

I need help with offspring science
REY [17]
The alleles of offspring vary, some are dominant and some are recessive, meaning that some traits get passed down and some don't, for example,: a dominant trait might be blue eyes, a parent would have blue eyes, and pass that dominant trait to their child so that the child would also have blue eyes, recessive traits are traits that skip a generation.
For example a grandparent might have black hair, but their child won't have black hair, however, their grandchild will have black hair, therefore the black hair trait is recessive and skipped a generation
