Answer:

Increasing iron-rich foods and vitamin supplements.

Explanation:

When a woman is pregnant, it doesn't mean that she has to double her portions. She will need to increase the calorie intake and certain minerals and vitamins. Iron is one of them. Human bodies don't naturally produce iron, it can only be obtained through the diet or supplements. Pregnancy increases woman's blood supply by 50 percent. Iron is used by the body to make red blood cells. An increase in blood means that a pregnant woman will need more red blood cells and more iron in order to make those blood cells. When she doesn't have enough iron in her body, anemia can be developed. It's the most common condition for a pregnant woman. It can be really dangerous both for the mother and the baby.

Iron intake is also followed by the bunch of minerals and vitamins, such as: vitamin D, folic acid, calcium, iodine etc.

Identify, define and break down 10 medical terms related to the nervous system.
lutik1710 [3]
Axons are long nerve processes which carry nerve impulses from the Soma to other neurons, they vary in length but can become almost as long as half of the human body.

The soma (body) of the neuron contains the nucleus which acts as the cell's control centre, these contain many small neurofibrils which project from the nucleus into the dendrites.

Dendrites are short, thick processes which branch out of the soma in a tree like manor. They conduct nerve impulses to the soma.
The three categories of neurons:

Afferent (Sensory) Neurons have the dendrites connected to receptors such as the eyes, ears etc. These receptors change the information they receive into electrical impulses that are transmitted to other neurons. In sensory neurons the axons are connected to other neurons.

Efferent (Motor) Neurons have the dendrites connected to other neurons, the axons are connected to effectors. Effectors are either glands or a muscle cell that is the receiving end of the nerve impulse. The nerve, when excited will cause the effector to react (move, contract, or secrete etc).

Internuncial Neurons have both the dendrites and the axons are connected to other neurons. They are sometimes referred to as connector neurons.
Internuncial neurons are found throughout the body, but especially in the spinal cord and brain.

Properties and characteristics of Neurons:
Normally the electrical impulses (messages) travel through a neuron in only one direction.

The axon may be surrounded by a 'coat' of lipids (fats) and proteins known as the myelin sheath which acts as an insulator.

Neurons are specialist cells that have lost the ability to reproduce themselves. Once the soma of a neuron has died the entire neuron dies, and can never be replaced.
Repair of damaged neurons only occurs in myelinated neurons.

white matter are coloured by myelin, consisting of many neurons supported by neuroglia.
grey matter is soma and dendrites or bundles of unmyelinated axons and neuralgia.
