In the event of a bioterrorism attack with anthrax, you would anticipate the use of antibiotics.

An antibiotic such as ciprofloxacin (Cipro), doxycycline, or levofloxacin is the conventional treatment for anthrax. The medical team should prepare for the use of tetracyclines like doxycycline in the event of an anthrax bioterrorism attack.

The deliberate release of viruses, bacteria, or other germs that can infect or kill humans, animals, or crops is known as a biological attack or bioterrorism. "One of the most likely agents to be employed in a biological attack is<em> Bacillus anthracis</em>, the bacteria that causes anthrax." The disease mostly affects animals, but when people come into touch with an infected animal, whether directly or indirectly, they become afflicted as well.

Nurse cells are responsible for:
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is e. all of the above.

Explanation:

Nurse cells are also called sertoli cells and are located in the seminiferous tubules in the testes. They provide nourishment to the growing sperms by providing nutrients from surrounding cells.

During the development of of sperms they become genetically different from other cells so nurse cells form blood testes barrier to protect them from immune cells.

Nurse cells concentrate the testosterone in seminiferous tubules which is necessary for proper development of sperms. They also secrete inhibin which stop FSH secretion from anterior pituitary therefore regulate the spermatogenesis.

g what constitutes a healthy or normal bmi? what are some of the reasons it is useful to have a single number, such as a bmi, to
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

BMI is the shortened form for Body Mass Index.

The Body Mass Index is a simple arithmetic for determining one's body fat using their height and weight.    

The formula is given as

 

\frac{Weight (Kilograms)}{Height (Metres)} or

(\frac{Weight (Pounds)}{Height (Inches}) * 703

If an adults BMI falls within the 18.5 to 24.9 range, it is considered healthy.

One of the benefits of using BMI as a health metric is that it is so easy to compute.

Its major disadvantage is that it only accounts for height and weight which can be altered by a variety of circumstances and as such in most cases are not the best indicators of whether or not, one if healthy.

For example, a higher muscle mass will mean more weight and as such, a higher BMI. Generally speaking, more muscle and less fat is healthy. So BMI, in this case, is useless as a metric of health status.

Other factors which alter the reading of BMI are: Gender, Frame Size, Age,

Pregnancy etc.

An individual who is very muscular, pregnant, or have a large frame, will most likely have a higher BMI calculation which may indicate that one is obese or overweight when they're not.

Cheers!

5. Choose one health science profession. Write a code of ethics for this
wariber [46]
I’m pretty sure forensic science is a health science profession... but

1. Accurately represent his/her education, training, experience, and areas of expertise.

2. Pursue professional competency through training, proficiency testing, certification, and
presentation and publication of research findings.

3. Commit to continuous learning in the forensic disciplines and stay abreast of new findings, equipment and techniques.

4. Promote validation and incorporation of new technologies, guarding against the use of non-valid methods in casework and the misapplication of validated methods.

5. Avoid tampering, adulteration, loss, or unnecessary consumption of evidentiary materials.

6. Avoid participation in any case where there are personal, financial, employment-related or other conflicts of interest.

7. Conduct full, fair and unbiased examinations, leading to independent, impartial, and objective opinions and conclusions.

8. Make and retain full, contemporaneous, clear and accurate written records of all examinations and tests conducted and conclusions drawn, in sufficient detail to allow meaningful review and assessment by an independent person competent in the field.

9. Base conclusions on generally-accepted procedures supported by sufficient data, standards and controls, not on political pressure or other outside influence.

10. Do not render conclusions that are outside one’s expertise.

11. Prepare reports in unambiguous terms, clearly distinguishing data from interpretations
and opinions, and disclosing all known associated limitations that prevent invalid inferences or mislead the judge or jury.

12. Do not alter reports or other records, or withhold information from reports for strategic or tactical litigation advantage.

13. Present accurate and complete data in reports, oral and written presentations and testimony based on good scientific practices and validated methods.

14. Communicate honestly and fully, once a report is issued, with all parties (investigators, prosecutors, defense attorneys, and other expert witnesses), unless prohibited by law.

15. Document and notify management or quality assurance personnel of adverse events, such as an unintended mistake or a breach of ethical, legal, scientific standards, or questionable conduct.

16. Ensure reporting, through proper management channels, to all impacted scientific and legal parties of any adverse event that affects a previously issued report or testimony.
