Paha777 [63]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct option is C) Heparin has its effects reversed with the administration of protamine sulfate.

Explanation:

Heparin is an anticoagulant, that is, it works by decreasing the ability of blood to clot, helping to prevent the formation of clots as well as stopping the subsequent extension of any existing clot. Through the neutralization of thrombin, it prevents the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin, and thus, prevents the formation of a stable clot by inhibiting the fibrin stabilizing factor.

Protamine sulfate is a heparin antagonist, forming with it inactive complexes without anticoagulant effect, that is, the protamine, in the presence of heparin, which is acidic in nature, through the formation of stable salts, cancels the anticoagulant effect of both substances, neutralizing and reversing the anticoagulant action of heparin.

How are birds and reptiles more similar based on their adult features? cer
vladimir2022 [97]

For centuries, many scientists hypothesized that birds were reptiles due to similarities in their anatomy, but there was no hard fossil evidence to support it. But in 1860, archaeologists discovered a fossil of a highly detailed Archaropteryx lithographica (a bird-like dinosaur), which filled the void of the “transitional species” that scientists needed to link birds and reptiles. Since then, many fossils of feathered dinosaurs have been found.

8. A narrow region between two air masses of different densities is a A. ridge. B. system. C. gulley. D. front.
Helga [31]
<span>The answer is d. front. A front is the narrow region between two air masses of different densities. The interaction of the air masses cause the mass that is less dense to rise. Once air rises it cools and condenses to form clouds and eventually leads to precipitation. Using cold fronts as an example, the denser mass of cold air forces the lighter warm air to rise. </span>
