The nurse suspects that an older adult patient has features of basal cell carcinoma appearing in form of a small dome-shaped lesion with a pearly surface on the face.
What is Basal cell carcinoma?
The most prevalent type of skin cancer that is not melanoma is basal cell carcinoma (BCC).
- It is a tumour that causes localized damage and has a variety of clinical and histological characteristics.
- When viewed at low power magnification, a basaloid epithelial tumour emerging from the epidermis is the primary characteristic of basal cell carcinoma.
- Normally, the palisade-like basaloid epithelium forms a fissure from the surrounding tumour stroma.
The nuclei grow congested in the centre, with scattered mitotic figures and visible necrotic bodies.
The presence of a mucinous stroma serves as a helpful distinguishing factor from other basaloid cutaneous tumours. Additionally, some tumours may exhibit foci of regression, which are regions of eosinophilic stroma devoid of basaloid nests.
Hence, the answer is a small dome-shaped lesion with a pearly surface on the face.

Answer:
The correct answer is B.
Explanation:
During the follicular phase (first half of female cycle), follicles in the ovary begin developing under the<u> influence of </u><u>FSH.</u> <em>The follicle that acquires more FSH receptors will become </em><em>dominant</em> and will produce more estrogen and inhibin hormone than the others. Inhibin will reduce FSH level and as a result the other follicles will fail to keep growing. At this stage the dominant follicle will become FSH independent.
Estrogen produced by the dominant follicle will stimulate LH secretion. After approximately 24-36 hours from when LH reaches its peak level, the dominant follicle releases an ovocyte. <em>This event is called ovulation.</em>
Answer: The patient’s complaints of increased hunger and urination are indicative of diabetes, and the loss of vision in the periphery can result from uncontrolled diabetes
Had to complete the question before answering.
A 27 year old female patient with a long history of diabetes mellitus presents to the office for her annual physical and to go over the results of her blood work with the doctor.

Fasting Glucose: 108mg/dl
HgbA1c: 8.0%
Chloride: 115 mEq/L
Potassium: 5.9 mEq/L
Sodium: 155 mEq/L
Calcium: 8.9mg/dl
Magnesium: 1.5 mg/dl
Phosphorus: 5.1 mg/d
EXPLANATION:
The patients blood sugar are above the recommended level or target range. Which has led to the patient experiencing symptoms of increased hunger, urination frequency, heart attack, the patient’s complaints of increased hunger and urination are indicative or signs of diabetes, and the loss of vision in the periphery is a result from an uncontrolled diabetes.

Answer:
<h3>Decreases low-density lipoproteins (LDLs)
.</h3>
Explanation:
- Atrovastatin is prescribed to patients who have high triglyceride and cholesterol levels in their bodies. It helps in reducing the risk of stroke, heart attack, and other heart and blood vessel ailments in our bodies.
- The intake of atrovastatin is associated with lowering high cholesterol and fat contents in our bodies.
- The patients might experience frequent side effects such as decrease in low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) as atorvastatins are powerful hydroxy-methyl-glutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) that burn lipoproteins.
