Research iron in the human body and tell me some stuff about it .
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Iron is a mineral that the body needs for growth and development. Your body uses iron to make hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body, and myoglobin, a protein that provides oxygen to muscles. Your body also needs iron to make some hormones.

The amount of iron you need each day depends on your age, your sex, and whether you consume a mostly plant-based diet. Average daily recommended amounts are listed below in milligrams (mg). Vegetarians who do not eat meat, poultry, or seafood need almost twice as much iron as listed in the table because the body doesn’t absorb nonheme iron in plant foods as well as heme iron in animal foods.

IrinaK [193]

Upon the positive Kernig and Brudzinski sign, the nurse should interpret meningeal irritation.

Kernig sign indicates the stiffness of hamstrings with pain on knee extension. And Brudzinski sign is indicated when passive forward flexion of the neck causes the patient to involuntarily raise his knees or hips in flexion.

Meningeal irritation is caused due to the infectious meningitis. Meninges are the three layers of tissues protecting the brain and spinal cord. The symptoms include headache, stiffness of neck and fever. nausea and vomiting can also happen. It can be diagnosed by lumbar test and neuroimaging.
