In acute leukemia, bone marrow suppression might happen. Then cancer cell can suppress the nearby cell in the bone marrow, causing a decrease in all blood component (pancytopenia). One of the blood components is thrombocyte which has a function in blood coagulation.
The black and blue marks probably a bruise that made from coagulation problem that caused by low in the blood thrombocyte/platelet count. The suppression should already happen when the bruise shows up.

Stella [2.4K]
It is important to make the client understand that while alcohol might not be the cause of their problems or all of their problems it does affect the process of their decision making depending on the situation and how they feel towards different situations. A short-term goal would be to go a week without drinking alcohol and to note their changes in mood, behavior towards others and different challenges that they face. Another option is to set a "challenge" to see how long the client can go without the consumption of alcohol, the longer they go without the bigger the changes they will see in their day to day life.

HELP!!
Advocard [28]

Answer:

the average percentage of energy lost as heat

Explanation:

An energy pyramid (also called trophic pyramid) is a graphical representation that exhibits how energy flows at each trophic level in a particular ecosystem. In an energy pyramid, it is possible to determine how much energy is available at each trophic level and how energy flows from producers (e.g., photosynthetic plants) to primary consumers (e.g., herbivores), then from primary consumers to the next trophic level (e.g., carnivores), and so successively to all major trophic groups (e.g., higher carnivores). During this chain, energy is lost as heat when it is transferred to the next level, and the average percentage of energy lost increases at each trophic level, thereby less and less energy is available to major trophic groups.
