1. Exoskeleton-<span>Arthropods are invertebrates, which means their bodies do not have internal bones for support. To compensate for this, they produce a hard exoskeleton made of chitin, a mixture of lipids, carbohydrates and protein, which covers and protects their bodies like a suit of armor. As arthropods grow, they must shed or molt their exoskeletons. They first produce new, softer exoskeletons underneath the old ones. Once their hardened, old coverings crack and shed, they sport roomier, albeit soft, exoskeletons. Arthropods are incredibly vulnerable during the molting process, and will often hide until their new exoskeletons harden.</span> 2. Segmented bodies-Arthropods have bodies that are internally and externally segmented. The number of segments depends on the individual species; millipedes, for example, have more segments than lobsters. 3. Jointed Appendeges-The name arthropod actually comes from the Greek “arthro,” meaning joint, and “pod,” meaning foot. All arthropods have jointed limbs attached to their hard exoskeletons that allow for flexibility and movement. The joints generally bend in only one direction but allow for sufficient predatory and defensive actions. 4. Bilateral Symmetry-An arthropod's body can be divided vertically into two mirror images. This is called bilateral symmetry. An arthropod shares this symmetry with many other animals such as fish, mice and even humans. Other animals such as the jellyfish and sea star exhibit radial symmetry, while coral and sea sponge are asymmetrical -- exhibiting no pattern at all. 5. Open Circulation System-An arthropod has an open circulatory system. This means instead of a closed circulatory system of interconnected veins and capillaries, an arthropod’s blood is pumped through open spaces called sinuses in order to reach tissues. An arthropod does, however, have a heart which pumps blood into the hemocoel, the cavity where the organs are located, where it surrounds the organs and tissues.
The nurse should infer base from the findings is that the
infant is having a ventricular septal defect in which cause the infant having
to produce a loud and harsh holosystolic murmur that is found in the left lower
sternal border.
Option A, Glucose metabolism in the fetal brain increased
Explanation:
Usage of cocaine during pregnancy is prohibited. However, in case if cocaine is taken it disrupts the metabolism as it increases brain glucose metabolism to the level of an adult human being. Since glucose metabolism in brain is a sensitive process, any disruption in it can lead to unaccounted effects such as dysfunctional circulation, and pharmacological effect. Cocaine increases the dopamine by blocking the dopamine transporters thereby increasing the Vmax. Since the brain of a child has all kind of neurochemical components, cocaine intakes by a pregnant woman produces reinforcing effects in brain of fetus and also make it pharmacologically active
Symptoms usually appear 30–60 minutes after eating toxic shellfish and includenumbness and tingling of the face, lips, tongue, arms, and legs. There may beheadache, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.
The answer is C. Because when you write an hypothesis you’re thinking about what might occur during and after the experiment. And your experiment must have independent, dependent, and control variables.
