Answer:

See below

Explanation:

RESECTION generally means surgery.  The type of surgery depends on where the cancer is located in the lungs and how large it is.

It could be done via general anesthesia and thoracoscopy to have a segmental or wedge resection and possible lobectomy...or it may be more extensive and require thoracotomy with lung lobectomy (partial lung removal)  or total pneumonectomy ( one-sided total lung removal).

Resection is the type of procedure which has to be done to remove tumor from the lungs.

<h3>What is Resection?</h3>

This is referred to a type of medical procedure which involves removing all or part of tissues of an organ.

Which of the following has documented extensive evidence that the delivery of medical care in inequitable and that ethnic and ra
denpristay [2]

Answer:

The options for the questions is not given but I do believe institutional racism has documented extensive evidence that delivery of medical care is inequitable and that ethinical and racial minorities may receive poorer health care quality than white Americans.

Explanation:

Gary King, an insightful theoretical analyst analysis in his research of (1996:35) and argues that "explanations of racial differences in medical care and of participation rates in medical research are grounded in institutional racism and in the professional ideologies of medicine and health care systems that lead to power imbalances between minorities and medicine's elite professionals"

King identifies three phrases of research which are: (1) initial “exploratory research,” which documented the differences between blacks and whites in medical care, utilizing quantitative data; (2) “contemporary” research, which focuses on coronary artery disease (CAD) and other specific diseases, using severe methods to investigate causes of disparities in treatment; and (3) most recently, “an incisive period in which researchers attempt to combine theory, methods and policy considerations” (1996:36).

King argues that for one to understand the documented differences, one must come to understand covert(implicit) as well as overt(explicit) racism and the multiple faced dimensions of institutional racism in medical and health institutions (1996:43).

In studies over several decades, it is found that “the medical gaze” soon becomes the dominant knowledge frame through medical school, that time and efficiency are highly prized, and that students and their attendings are most caring of patients who are willing to become part of their medical story that they wish to tell and the therapeutic activities they hope to pursue

What are some assumptions about the male reproductive system....?
finlep [7]

The purpose of the organs of the male reproductive system is to perform the following functions:

-To produce, maintain, and transport sperm (the male reproductive cells) and protective fluid (semen)

-To discharge sperm within the female reproductive tract during sex

-To produce and secrete male sex hormones responsible for maintaining the male reproductive system.


Unlike the female reproductive system, most of the male reproductive system is located outside of the body. These external structures include the penis, scrotum, and testicles.
