ss7ja [257]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The correct answer is option D. give furosemide.

Explanation:

Digoxin is a drug that uses in the cardiovascular condition. It inhibits the Na-K ATPase enzyme, which functions to maintain the intracellular environment by regulating the entry and exit of sodium and potassium.  

Digoxin toxicity may occur due to the low level of potassium (inside the cell)due to the inhibitaion of the sodium-potassium pump.  Furosemide is a diuretic drug that decreases salt concentration (such as ions) in the body by increasing urine output. and causes a low level of potassium in the body

Thus, furosemide increases digoxin toxicity as during low levels of potassium, digoxin can easily bind with the sodium-potassium pump and shows severe effects.

Which of these insulates the neurons in the CNS?
ollegr [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A- oligodendrocytes.

Explanation:

The insulation property of the neurons (axons) of the nervous system is provided by the fat-containing cells which wrap around the axons.  

This wrapped structure is known as the "myelin sheath" in which fat provides the insulation to the neurons which increases the impulse conduction through neurons. The "oligodendrocytes" present in the CNS forms the myelin sheath which provides insulation to the neurons.

Thus, option A- oligodendrocytes are the correct answer.
