The flow rate be 20.6 mL/hr in mentioned case.

<h3>Why dopamine is used ?</h3>

Dopamine is a neurotransmitter as well as hormone and plays a vital role in various body functions.

Important information to know:

Patient’s weight: 55 kg

Dose: 10 mcg/kg/min

Available: 800 mg/ 500 mL

What we’re solving for? mL/hr

[6:10 pm, 24/08/2022] Anushka Singh: 55 kg  x 10 mcg/min    x    1 mg     x       500 mL  = 275,000 = 0.34375 mL/min

800,000

Not done yet, we need to convert from minutes to hours because we need to find mL/hr:

60 minutes  x    0.34375 mL = 20.625 = 20.6 mL/hr

1 hour                  1 minute

Therefore, answer is 20.6 mL/hr

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.
