Answer:

The correct answer will be option- C.

Explanation:

Dehydration is the loss of water from the body in the response to which body undergoes physiological and metabolic changes as:

1. The hypothalamus produces Anti-diuretic hormone or ADH from the posterior of the pituitary gland which produces its effect on the kidney to reabsorb the water.

2. The body produces renin, angiotensin II and aldosterone which increases the permeability of the distal convoluted tubule and the collecting ducts.

3. The extracellular blood or the blood becomes more concentrated due to dehydration.

Thus, option- C which is that renal tubules decrease water reabsorption is the incorrect option as water absorption is increased in the kidney.

There is a low probability that a future pregnancy would exhibit similar phenotypes since it probably was a germinative line mutation that affected that egg.

Explanation:

The malformations of the unborn child, probably are due to a mutation in the germ cell of any or both parents. Germline mutations are detectable changes in a sperm or egg that we can see when the fetus is growing, as malformations since the original germ cell that was mutated divided itself to give more mutated cells for all the different parts of the fetus.

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

By my reckoning, as a professional in healthcare, I'd answer your question that way:

Explanation:

All health professionals have a duty to provide this type of service, giving emphasis on preventive medicine since prevention will always be better than cure - better safe than sorry - but of course, it's clear that family doctors have much more opportunities to provide these kinds of service than those who have specialized areas.

A nurse is assessing a client for risk factors for osteoporosis. which finding would be a concern?
trasher [3.6K]
  • The client report that she doesn't exercise much at all.
  • The client reports that she smokes a few cigarettes a day.
  • The client report that she is taking phenytoin to treat a seizure disorder.
  • The client reports that she takes a daily low dose of prednisone to treat a chronic respiratory condition.

The hip, backbone (spine), and wrist are the most often affected bones due to osteoporosis, which weakens bones to the point that they shatter easily. The term "silent illness" refers to osteoporosis since it might go unnoticed until a bone breaks.

Your bones, however, had been deteriorating for a long time. Sedentary behavior, cigarette smoking, excessive alcohol use, chronic disease, and long-term anticonvulsant and furosemide usage are risk factors for osteoporosis. A diet lacking in calcium is another risk factor linked to osteoporosis.
