MAXImum [283]3 years ago

Answer:

System that receives and transmits information and responses, in addition to work with electrical  impulses is the Nervous system.

Explanation:

The nervous system (NS) is responsible for the control of all the organs and functions of the body. The neuron is the functional unit of this system, allowing the transmission of information through nerve impulses, generated by the difference in potential of its cell membrane.

NS is divided into:  

  1. <em>Central nervous system</em><em> (CNS) —where the</em><em> brain</em><em>, spinal cord and other structures are located— in charge of receiving, processing and sending information. </em>
  2. <em>Peripheral Nervous System </em><em>(PNS), a network of nerve fibers in charge of receiving the stimuli and conducting the information to and from the CNS.</em>

The integration of both NSC and NSP allows an organism to fulfill all its functions, both voluntarily and involuntarily.

Explain how structure of cell wall in xylem tissue enables it to be strong and flexible?
Drupady [299]
The walls of xylem cells are lignified (strengthened with a substance called lignin ). This allows the xylem to withstand pressure changes as water moves through the plant.

The cell membrane is flexible because of the presence of oil like substances called phospholipids, which gives it a fluid nature. While as the cell walls are rigid because of the presence of the thick layers of the substances like cellulose in plants, chitin in fungi and peptidoglycon in bacteria.

Juan has been diagnosed with mono, and the doctor wants to determine if his spleen is enlarged. Where (quadrant, etc.) will the
hichkok12 [17]

Answer and Explanation:

  • Where (quadrant, etc.) will the doctor palpate Juan's abdomen?

<em>Under normal conditions in general the spleen can not be palped because of its reduced size. But when it is enlarged it might be easily touched. The spleen is located under the thoracic cage (rib cage) on the left side, between the 8th and 11th ribs. This would correspond to the left superior quadrant (left hemi-belly).</em>

  • What other organs might be compressed by Juan's enlarged spleen?

<em>The enlargement of the spleen and the liver inflammation are symptoms of the mono disease. This enlargement might affect some neighboring organs such as the stomach, which might be displaced and compressed. </em>

  • why is Juan's spleen enlarged and not his stomach or kidney?

<em>The spleen is part of the immunological system and helps the body to fight infections and filter old bloody cells taking them out of the blood current. This organ might get enlarged because blood cells accumulate in its interior. Red blood cells are excessively stored in the spleen, resulting in anemia. The more cells the spleen retains, the larger it becomes, and hence, the more blood cells it retains and destroys. If the spleen is unproperly working, it kills too many red blood cells and accumulates many others.</em>

The Stomach and kidney are not part of the immunity system and they do not filter blood cells, so they do not seem to be affected by their accumulation.
