Medicine

pychu [463]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Nitroglycerin is a medication that produces relaxation of vascular smooth muscle. This happens because nitroglycerin is converted into nitric oxide (NO) in the body. NO then activates the enzyme guanylyl cyclase, which converts guanosine triphosphate into guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP). cGMP then activates many protein kinase-dependent phosphorylations, resulting in the <em>dephosphorylation of myosin light chains within smooth muscle fibers.  </em>

This causes the relaxation of smooth muscle and as a result blood vessels dilatate.

Which person can safely receive a life influenza vaccine
Anna [14]

People who can get the flu shot:

Different flu shots are approved for people of different ages. Everyone should get a vaccine that is appropriate for their age.

There are inactivated influenza vaccines (IIV) that are approved for people as young as 6 months of age.

Some vaccines are only approved for adults. For example, the recombinant influenza vaccine (RIV) is approved for people aged 18 years and older, and the adjuvanted and high-dose inactivated vaccines are approved for people aged 65 years and older.

Pregnant women and people with certain chronic health conditions can get a flu shot.

Most people with egg allergy can get a flu shot.

People who SHOULD NOT get the flu shot:

Children younger than 6 months of age are too young to get a flu shot.

People with severe, life-threatening allergies to flu vaccine or any ingredient in the vaccine. This might include gelatin, antibiotics, or other ingredients. See Special Considerations Regarding Egg Allergy for more information about egg allergies and flu vaccine
