Answer:
x axis
Explanation:
The horizontal axis (x axis) measures time. The veritcal axis (y axis) measures the voltage the recorded signals.
1. The pathogen
2. The reservoir
3. The portal of exit
4. The mode of transmission
5. The portal of entry
6. The susceptible host
Answer:
a. False
b. False
c. True
d. True
Explanation:
a. It is the right lymphatic duct drains lymph from the right upper limb and the right side of the head, neck, and thorax while the thoracic duct drains lymph into the circulatory system.
b. The spleen filters blood, while the lymph nodes filters lymph
c. The lymph capillaries are responsible for picking up excess interstitial fluid and leaked proteins to return it to the blood.
d. Mucosa- associated lymphatic tissue (MALT) are found in the mucous membrane, and most times lack connective tissue capsule, but the specialized MALT which is partially encapsulated is called the tonsil.
Answer:
1.) Abnormal parameters:
- Difficulty focusing (confusion)
- Elevated heart rate (tachycardia), with thready and weak pulse quality
- Elevated respiratory rate (tachypnea). Rapid and shallow respiration.
- Low blood pressure (hypotension)
- Low blood glucose (hypoglycemia)
- Low serum sodium (hyponatremia)
- High serum potassium (hyperkalemia)
- High ACTH
- Low cortisol (hypocortisolism) (Note: this lab values are obtained normally at 8am, due to its physiological curve)
2.) Addison’s disease
- Confusion: Hyponatremia causes confusion, due to neuronal imbalance.
- Tachycardia: Inmediate response to hypotension, so as to maintain a adequate cardiac output.
- Tachypnea: Hyperkalemia produces an acid-base imbalance (acidemia), which normally can be compensated by changes in the respiratory rate.
- Hypotension: hyponatremia produces reduced water retention in blood vessels, affecting blood pressure
- Hypoglycemia: hypocortisolism directly affects blood glucose (decreased gluconeogenesis)
- Hyponatremia: Sodium retention will be reduced due to the absence of Aldosterone,
- Hyperkalemia: Potassium excretion will be reduced due to the absence of Aldosterone.
- High ACTH: No negative feedback inhibits the production of ACTH (depends on cortisol level).
- Hypocortisolism: Due to the non functioning cortex of adrenal gland, no cortisol is being produced.
Explanation:
Addison’s disease, also known as adrenal insufficiency, is a set of characteristic signs and symptom caused by the failure of the adrenal gland to produce steroid hormones, mainly Cortisol and in some cases Aldosterone. This syndrome presents various causes, incluiding autoinmune disease, infectious, and infiltration by cancerous cells.
