Answer:

(D). cesarean section

Explanation:

Oxytocin is a peptide hormone, synthesized by hypothalamus and secreted by posterior pituitary. Oxytocin plays role in sexual reproduction, lactation, and induce contractions during child birth.

Oxytocin is naturally produced at the time of child birth, but natural oxytocin has a short half-life. Hence, oxytocin infusion is done during child birth or cesarean section as it maintains contraction of uterine wall during the surgery.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

Por qué el cuerpo humano tiene entre 206 y 208 huesos? Como están compuestos los Miembros inferiores? (Aclarar sus partes).
Darya [45]

Answer:

El cuerpo humano posee 206 huesos (208 huesos teniendo en cuenta huesecillos del oído medio)

Miembros inferiores > fémur, tibia, peroné, tarso, metatarso y falanges.

Explanation:

En adulto se compone de 206 huesos, pero algunos autores sostienen que el cuerpo humano está compuesto por 208 huesos debido a que el hueso del estribo (estapedio) perteneciente a la cadena de huesecillos del oído medio se suele considerar como dos unidades independientes (lenticular y estribo), dando así lugar a un total de 208 huesos. Por otra parte, otros autores también han considerado la posibilidad de que el cuerpo humano está compuesto por 208 huesos debido a variaciones en el número de las vértebras. Los huesos de miembros inferiores se dividen de acuerdo a su localización en huesos del muslo, de la pierna y del pie. El muslo contiene un sólo hueso conocido como fémur (el hueso más largo del cuerpo). La pierna posee dos huesos llamados tibia y peroné los cuales se disponen paralelamente. La tibia es más larga y gruesa que el peroné debido a que la tibia soporta todo el peso de la articulación. Finalmente, el pie se compone del tarso, el metatarso y las falanges (huesos de los dedos). El tarso posee siete huesos (calcáneo, astrágalo, navicular, cuboides y tres cuñas), mientras que el metatarso posee cinco huesos (primero, segundo, tercero, cuarto y quinto). Al igual que en los miembros superiores, el dedo gordo del pie posee dos falanges conocidas como proximal y distal, mientras que los cuatro dedos restantes poseen tres falanges (proximal, media y distal).
