Which manifestations are exhibited with syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (siadh)?
wariber [46]

Hyponatremia and decreased urine output are exhibited with syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (siadh).

<h3>What is secretion of antidiuretic hormone (siadh)?</h3>

Syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone  (SIADH) is a condition in which the body produces too much antidiuretic hormone (ADH). This hormone helps the kidneys control the amount of water the body loses through urine. SIADH causes the body to retain excess water. ADH is a substance that is naturally produced  in an area of ​​the brain called the hypothalamus. It is then released from the pituitary gland at the base of the brain.

There are many reasons why the body needs to produce large amounts of ADH. Common situations where ADH is (improperly) released into the blood when it shouldn't be produced  include:

  • Drug therapy
  • During surgery General anesthesia
  • Brain disorders such as trauma, infections and stroke
  • Brain surgery involving the hypothalamus
  • Pulmonary disorders such as tuberculosis, cancer, chronic infections and  pneumonia
  • Substance abuse

Rare causes include: There is a thing Pituitary

  • Leukemia and cancer of the small intestine, pancreas and brain
  • Psychiatric disorders

Question 5 unsaved adding a unit to move a susceptible group enough to prevent metabolism is known as
mrs_skeptik [129]
<span>adding a unit to move a susceptible group enough to prevent metabolism is known as shifting.
These phenomena happen especially for liposoluble organism circulating in blood like drugs an hormones.
these molecules circulating blood can be divided into two forms : 
The free-form: which is the active part, it circulates freely in the blood, but are easily metabolised.
The bound form: it can be bound to other molecules from the organisms depending on its affinity like proteins (albumin, glycoproteins). this form is not active but is prevented from metabolism.

Competition for bounding proteins can happen between two drugs for example. If they have a different degree of affinity for proteins, then the most affine will displace the less affine from the protein and bound it, and that is call shifting</span>

What type of conduction takes place in unmyelinated axons? What type of conduction takes place in unmyelinated axons? Continuous
Volgvan

Continuous conduction takes place in unmyelinated axon.

Explanation:

Based on the presence and absence of myelin sheath, the neurons had been classified as myelinated and non-myelinated neurons respectively.

In myelinated neurons the transmission of impulse takes place only at the non myelinated region called nodes of Ranvier. Due to this, the conduction in Myelinated neuron is saltatory.

The conduction in non-myelinated neuron takes place throughout the length of axon and it is continuous.

Saltatory conduction is faster than continuous conduction.
