Answer:

Anorexia nervosa, binge/purge type

Explanation:

Anorexia nervosa is a condition in which the patient loses a considerable amount of weight in a very short period of time, patients present an excessive fear to gain weight and they have distorted image about themselves since they consider their appearance is the one of a fat person when in reality they are thin and probably malnourished.

One subtype of the condition is anorexia nervosa, binge/purge type in which the patient undergoes binge eating episodes and in order to compensate their guilt and loss of control feeling they use self-induced vomiting or the use of laxatives.

A 17-year-old male is brought to your emergency department by his girlfriend. she states that he has been behaving strangely for
allochka39001 [22]
I'd need my criteria for that, but, I'd have to say a over-stress reaction, maybe combination of a physical presence of something. Because his bpm (heart rate) is tachycardic (fast), which is dangerous for his age. A physical presence I am thinking is since  he is diaphoretic could be on some sort of drugs. What also leads me to believe that is his pulis are widely dilated and stress rarely causes that. 

I will have to finish answering this later? Am really busy.

The physical changes during puberty are due to <u>secondary sex characteristics</u>

Explanation:

Origin: Secondary sex characteristics in male typically originate at the onset and develop during puberty from 9-16 years.

Mechanism: The hypothalamus of the brain initiates the release of follicular stimulating and leutinizing hormones which trigger the Sertoli cells of the testes to begin spermatogenesis and the interstitial cells of Leydig to produce the male sex hormone testosterone.

It is this release of testosterone that leads to the development of secondary sexual characteristics like:

  • Muscular and strong body
  • Deepening of voice
  • Growth of facial, axillary (underarm) and pubic hair
  • Enlargement of reproductive organs like the scrotum, testes, etc; along with penis lengthening
  • Spermatogenesis begins along with feelings of sexual drive during this adolescent period .
