Stimulant, has a paradoxical effect in children, producing calmness in children with hyperactive behavior. The exact mechanism of action is not clearly understood.  Stimulant medications used to treat ADHD can suppress appetite, and the child may lose or fail to gain weight properly. The client is too young to manage his medications independently. Ritalin should be given in divided doses.

How does cellular information pass from one generation to the next? Include meiosis in your answer.
JulsSmile [24]

Meiosis in reproductive organs (testes and ovary) produce gametes. Each human cell including reproductive cells contains 23 pair of chromosomes. Meiosis separates the two chromosomes from each pair thus, each gamete receives only one copy of each chromosome. Therefore, each gamete has 23 new chromosomes, one from each of the 23 pairs. During meiosis, exchange of chromosome segment between copies of a pair of chromosomes. The exchange of chromosome segments creates new combinations of genes which enhances genetic variability within a species.

The hypothesis that germs desease is theory Before many scientists believed in the idea spontaneres the appearance of organists

Explanation:

The Germ Theory of Disease  indicates that microbes are the causal agents in human disease.  In modern healthcare, Germ Theory has led to a breakthrough in the treatment of infectious diseases with antibiotics such as penicillin, and the prevention of disease outbreaks through proper sanitation and vaccination.

Further  Explanation:

Biology's unifying principle states that cells are the basic units of biological organisms. Cells sharing a similar origin, group together in the body to form tissues; these typically share physical features and are arranged in regular patterns. All living things, grow, respire, reproduce etc. these processes are carried out by cells, which are thus integral to their survival.

Before the discovery of cells by Robert Hooke in 1665 with a simple microscope, many scientists had long believed that life rose spontaneously over extended periods of time. Circa 1668 Francesco Redi, challenged the idea of spontaneous generation of maggots from rotting meat by placing meat in various sealed open, partially sealed and sealed containers. Sealed containers did not show the presence of maggots, and he theorized that these were likely from eggs laid on the meat by flies. This was the development of the theory disproving abiogenesis (cells arise from other living cells); this eventually proved the unifying principle we know today.

Cell theory states that living things are comprised of cells, as their smallest units capable of functioning. Microscopy helps to prove this, as cells and their varying components can readily be seen, observed and later classified.
