An axon is the extension of a neuron that carries messages away from the soma  

Explanation:

An axon is the segmented, slender, and long nerve fiber which is a projection of the neuron, the nerve cell.

An axon is the primary transmission line for electrical impulses. The main function of an axon is to conduct the electrical impulses or transmit the information away from the cell body (soma) of a nerve cell (neuron) to other neurons or the glands or muscles.

An axon varies in its length at different parts with the longest present in the sciatic nerve.

after administering a loop diuretic, a nurse monitors the client for increased urine output. what principle explains the seconda
Levart [38]

The correct answer for this question is Osmosis.

Osmotic diuresis is an increase in urine production brought on by the presence of specific chemicals in the tiny kidney tubes. When chemicals like glucose enter the kidney tubules and cannot be reabsorbed, excretion takes place (due to a pathological state or the normal nature of the substance). The compounds raise the osmotic pressure inside the tubule, which causes water to be retained in the lumen and inhibits water absorption, boosting urine production (i.e., diuresis). Therapeutics like mannitol, which is used to improve urine output and decrease extracellular fluid volume, have the similar effect.

By making the blood more osmolar, substances in the circulation can also increase the volume of fluid flowing through the body.

The other six leads are considered “precordial leads” because they are placed on the torso (precordium). The six limb leads are called lead I, II, III, aVL, aVR and aVF.
