client is admitted to the hospital with reports of severe fatigue, weight gain and feeling cold all of the time
swat32

A client is admitted to the hospital and has reports of severe fatigue, weight gain, and feeling cold all of the time. The client is then suspected of having hypothyroidism after some diagnosis and will have several greater diagnostic tests performed. The nurse suspected it to be an Endocrine gland dysfunction.

<h3>What are Endocrine glands? </h3>

Endocrine glands are epithelial structures that have lost their surface attachment during development.

  • These ductless glands release chemicals straight into the bloodstream, including hormones.
  • The thyroid gland secretes two hormones called triiodothyronine and thyroxine, both of which are necessary for metabolism.

A patient with hypothyroidism will experience a decrease in hormone release, which will obstruct metabolism and cause fatigue, weight gain, and a feeling of being cold.

Which of the following would not increase the rate of gas diffusion across the respiratory membrane?
Aleks [24]

Answer: Longer distance for the gases to diffuse.

Explanation:

Diffusion can be defined as the movement of particles from a place where its concentration is high to the place where its concentration is very low.

The movement of the particles is dependent on many factors such as solubility of the gases, if the place of concentration is steeper and greater surface area for the gaseous exchange.

The factor which will decrease the rate of diffusion is when the distance between the two place where diffusion will take place is more or large.

Hence, the correct answer is option A
