Answer: b. Lisinopril

Explanation: Lisinopril is a medication used to treat diseases like high blood pressure. It is part of a group of medications called by its mechanism of action as ANGIOTENSIN-CONVERTING-ENZYME INHIBITORS (ACE inhibitors), along with Captopril, Cilazapril, Enalapril, Fosinopril, among others. One of the most common side effects is dry cough, that could appear since, one week after beginning the treatment or even six weeks later. The cough does not respond to any treatment, except if the medication is stopped.  

The Furosemide, Diltiazem, and Metoprolol do not have dry cough described as a side effect. Furosemide: electrolyte disturbances (of calcium, magnesium, sodium). Diltiazem: Dizziness, headache, diarrhea. Metoprolol: Bradichardia, gastrointestinal symptoms.

How would a mutation affect how DNA is eventually read when it forms a protein
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

Mutated DNA affects proteins during translation which can cause different proteins to be created

Explanation:

The process of protein-synthesis is when mRNA is translated into different proteins, which takes place in the ribosome.  Mutated DNA can cause something known as a "frameshift mutation" where the codons are either inserted, duplicated, and or deleted. The mutation in the mRNA will cause the codons to be misarrageded effectively causing a different protein to be created! We know this through our codon chart, which can be searched for online.

I recommend looking more into Protein Synthesis if you have further questions, I hope this answer helped!

Plasma is a component of edema​
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Edema occurs when an excessive volume of fluid accumulates in the tissues, either within cells (cellular edema) or within the collagen-mucopolysaccharide matrix distributed in the interstitial spaces (interstitial edema)

Explanation:

The definition of edema is a swelling due to the expansion of interstitial fluid volume in tissues or an organ. Several clinical conditions present with edema, making it a critical clinical feature for diagnostic medicine. Edema can present in numerous forms including unilateral, bilateral, localized, or generalized edema. Therefore, it is vital to assess the unique presentation and mechanism of edema to understand how it relates to disease pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and treatment. This review will present an overview of the general and cellular characteristics of edema, the mechanism, and pathophysiology of edema, and how edema relates to a specific disease presentation and development.
