<h3>Answer choices are:</h3>

A: microscopic anatomy

B: physiology

C: superficial anatomy

D: functional Anatomy.

<h3>Correct answer choice is:</h3><h2>D. Functional Anatomy</h2>

Explanation:

To understand ankle injuries understanding ankle anatomy and biomechanics is very important to know. An ankle has several bony landmarks. Three bones articulate to make the ankle joint: the fibula, the tibia, and the talus

Five million ankle injuries occur annually in the United States with ankle sprains accounting for 40% of sports injuries (Griffen, 2005)

The orthopedic nurses must understand ankle bio mechanics, fracture classification schemes, physiology of injury, and treatment modalities to care for the patient with an ankle injury.

A bicycle takes 8.0 seconds to accelerate at a constant rate from rest to a speed of 4.0m/s. If the mass of the bicycle is 86 kg
worty [1.4K]

Explanation:

acceleration = final velocity- initial velocity/time taken

acceleration =4.0m/s -0 m/s / 8 seconds

acceleration =4/8

acceleration =1/ 2

acceleration =0.5 ms^2

force = mass × acceleration

f = 86kg×0.5= 43 newtons

Pancreatic amylase is secreted by the pancreas into the __________, where the majority of carbohydrate digestion occurs.
Xelga [282]

Answer:

small intestine

Explanation:

The pancreatic juice that secretes the exocrine portion is formed by enzymes produced by the acini cells referred to earlier, and by an alkaline solution that is actively secreted by the duct cells. The alkaline solution is rich in sodium bicarbonate. Pancreatic enzymes are stored in acinar cells inside zymogen granules and released into the small intestine when necessary. The pancreas secretes a wide range of enzymes, which includes proteases, carbohydrases (pancreatic amylase and, in some cases, chitinase) and pancreatic lipase.

The three main proteases produced by the pancreas are trypsinogen, chymotrypsinogen and procarboxyaminopeptidase. As it is deduced from their names, they are inactive forms, which is how they are secreted. The reason for them to be stored like this is that, otherwise, they would digest the acini's own cellular proteins. Trypsinogen is activated once discharged into the duodenum due to the action of enterokinase, an enzyme found in the epithelial cells of the duodenal mucosa; It happens to be trypsin. It is active, autocatalytically, more trypsinogen. And it also does the same with the other two proteolytic zymogens, the chymotrypsinogen and the procarboxypeptidase. Each of these enzymes act on different bonds in the peptide chains resulting in a mixture of amino acids and small peptides. The intestinal epithelium is safe from the action of these proteases thanks to the protection provided by mucus secreted by cells of the intestine wall.

Pancreatic amylase degrades polysaccharides and converts them into disaccharides. That is, it acts in the same way as salivary amylase does. The other pancreatic carbohydrase is chitinase, although it is only present in fish and some seabirds. Chitin is a structural polysaccharide that is part of the cuticle of the arthropods and the fungal cell wall, fulfilling in these a function similar to that fulfilled by cellulose in plants.

Research on work-site weight-loss programs indicates that the most needed factor to ensure their success is what?
Kryger [21]

Answer:

Motivational techniques

Explanation:

Weight-loss programs are often very strenuous for the participants. Many people often go off track in their programs because there is too much temptation with watching everyone else eating food that they want. However, the biggest reason to fail at a weight-loss program is loss of motivation.

Motivational techniques such as competitions of "who can lose the most weight" or "who can go a week without eating cake", can really boost moral of the winner, and inspire the other competitors to do better.

It is in human nature to try and win against a challenge that is put in front of them.
