What are the advantages of seeing a specialist as opposed to a primary care physician

Health

Pachacha [2.7K]3 years ago

Primary Care Providers are doctors who have been trained to be a patient’s first point of entry into the health care system. If you're looking to get your annual physical or need to see a doctor about something that's wrong with your health, they’re great resources because they’re trained to be able to diagnose a wide variety of medical conditions. Specialists are doctors who have advanced training and degrees in a particular branch of medicine, such as heart health or bone health. Depending on the field, many can also perform surgery. If you have, say, a suspicious mole, your primary care provider may recommend that you follow up with a dermatologist so he or she can check it out and possibly remove it surgically.


Hope that helps!

What do african snails eat and how do they mate and pls follow thx ​
vodka [1.7K]

Answer: African snails eat all sorts of leafy greens like lettuce. Other foods include apples,melon,bananas, and grapes. African snails both possess the female and male reproductive organs mean that they could possibly self-fertilize but they usually do not do it. The most common way of mating is when one snail mounts the other snails shell and the exchange of sperm occurs between both snails. Fertilization occurs in both snails after this.

Why do turtles breath out of their butts
luda_lava [24]

Answer: Limited room and no ribcage

Pls give me brainliest i had to research

Explanation: The possible answer to the question lies in the turtle's shell. The shell, which evolved from ribs and vertebrae that flattened out and fused together, does more than keep the turtle safe from bites. When a turtle hibernates, it buries itself in cold water for up to five months. To survive, it has to change a lot of things about the way its body works. Some processes, such as fat burning, go anaerobic - or without oxygen - in a hibernating turtle. Anaerobic processes result in the build up of lactic acid, and anyone who has seen Aliens knows that too much acid isn't good for a body. The turtle's shell can not only store some lactic acid, but release bicarbonates (baking soda to the acid's vinegar) into the turtle's body. It's not just armor plating, it's a chemistry set.

It is, however, a fairly restrictive chemistry set. Without ribs that expand and contract, the turtle has no use for the lung and muscle set-up that most mammals have. Instead it has muscles that pull the body outwards, towards the openings of the shell, to allow it to inhale, and more muscles to squish the turtle's guts against its lungs to make it exhale. The combination makes for a lot of work, which is especially costly if every time you use a muscle your body's acid levels go up and oxygen levels go down.

Compare this to the relatively cheap butt breathing. Sacs next to the cloaca, called bursa, easily expand. The walls of these sacs are lined with blood vessels. Oxygen diffuses through the blood vessels, and the sacs are squeezed out. The entire procedure uses little energy for a turtle that doesn't have a lot to spare. Dignity has to play second-fiddle to survival sometimes.

How Does Someone Get Infected? Name the body fluids and an explanation, if any, of how it can be transmitted. High Risk Body Flu
love history [14]
Highest risk body fluid would be blood because it has high nutritional value and pathogen is multiplying on there. Most pathogen will be transmitted by blood.

Droplet from cough also highly contagious since it easily contacts with any part of the body. Inhalation also makes the infection easier since it contacts mucosa.

Vaginal secretion and seminal fluid can transmit many virus but it depends on how many virus in the blood.

Saliva is composed by water and enzyme so it's low risk on virus spread. But it's on the mouth(which wasn't sterile) so it can be contaminated by various things. 

In normal condition urine and spinal fluid is sterile, but in a case of infection, it can be contaminated.

Sweat is mostly water and salt so it's safe.
