A continuous infusion of insulin can be prescribed by a practitioner to a patient suffering from type 1 diabetes.

The insulin pump therapy is used for this purpose because it mimics a physiological way of delivering the insulin into the body.

Given the vast amount of breakdown of his tooth enamel and the black discoloration, what do you suspect may be the primary cause
Evgen [1.6K]

The vast amount of breakdown of his tooth enamel and the black discoloration, I suspect tartar and tooth decay may be the primary cause of this deterioration

<h3>Tartar</h3>

A dentist will have to remove the build-up when tartar is the cause, typically by scraping the tartar off the teeth. The dentist may have to use ultrasonic instruments that use vibration to break up the tartar and make it easier to remove.

<h3>Tooth decay</h3>

In cases of decay, it's unlikely that a dentist will be able to improve the black teeth through a simple cleaning. they're going to instead need to remove the decayed portion of the tooth.

Hormone that does not cause vasoconstriction?
oee [108]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C-ANP (Atrial natriuretic peptide).

Explanation:

Vasoconstriction is the narrowing of the blood vessels which can stop or block the blood flow.

Vasoconstriction reduces the urine formation during stress conditions through the action of hormones like ADH (anti-diuretic hormone), norepinephrine, epinephrine and angiotensin II produced via the sympathetic nervous system.

The atrial natriuretic hormone (ANP) is a cardiac hormone produced to lower the blood pressure or reduce blood plasma through vasodilation, increased vascular permeability and increase renal excretion.  

Thus, option C is the correct answer.

avanturin [10]

Answer:

The answer is D thalamus

Explanation:

The response to an olfactory stimulus travels through the olfactory nerve, crossing the sieve lamina of the ethmoid, located in the anterior region of the brain. From there the stimulus travels to the olfactory bulb ending in the olfactory glomeruli where aromatic signals are processed, which are conducted by special receptor cells. The information subsequently reaches the hypothalamus and the limbic system. Finally, the information reaches the temporal and frontal cerebral cortex where the odor stimulus becomes conscious.
