What makes platelet?

Biology
1 answer:
Nookie1986 [14]3 years ago
3 0
From previous knowledge, I believe platelets are NOT true cells. However, they bite off pieces of larger cells in the bone marrow. 

Platelets are inside blood, along with other substances such as hormones, glucose, dissolved proteins, minerals, salts, red blood cells, and white blood cells.

Duration of hypotension before initiation of effective antimicrobial therapy is the critical determinant of survival in human se
nydimaria [60]

The goal is to find out how often effective antimicrobial therapy is delayed after the start of persistent or recurrent hypotension in septic shock and how this affects mortality.

Design: A cohort research that was conducted in retrospect between July 1989 and June 2004.

Setting: Ten hospitals (four academic, six community) and fourteen critical care units (four medical, four surgical, and six combined medical/surgical) located in Canada and the United States.

Patients: The 2,731 adult patients with septic shock listed in their medical records.

Measurements and key findings: Survival to hospital discharge served as the primary outcome indicator. A survival percentage of 79.9% was found when an antibiotic efficacious for isolated or suspected infections was administered within the first hour of verified hypotension. Over the following 6 hours, each hour of antibiotic delivery delay was linked to an average 7.6% decline in survival. When compared to obtaining treatment within the first hour after the beginning of persistent or recurrent hypotension, the in-hospital mortality rate was considerably higher by the second hour (odds ratio 1.67; 95% confidence range, 1.12-2.48). The single best predictor of outcome in multivariate analysis (which included Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II score and treatment factors) was time to the start of effective antimicrobial therapy. It took 6 hours on average to start effective antimicrobial therapy (25-75th percentile, 2.0-15.0 hrs).

Conclusions: In adult patients with septic shock, effective antibiotic therapy during the first hour of confirmed hypotension was related with enhanced survival to hospital discharge. Only 50% of patients with septic shock got efficient antimicrobial therapy within 6 hours of being diagnosed with proven hypotension, despite a steady rise in fatality rate with increasing delays.

<h3>What is septic shock?</h3>

Septic shock is a potentially fatal illness that develops after an infection when your blood pressure drops to an unsafely low level. The infection might be brought on by any kind of bacterium.

The genetic variation would have to come from random events: False
Only alternate generations would express any genetic variable: False
Body cell mutations would be the only source of heritable genetic variation: False
There would be no new heritable genetic variation possible in the population: True

How does the distribution of the world's major coal reserves support the theory of plate tectonics?(1 point)
Tanya [424]

B) Around 300 million years ago, the regions where coal formed were located in tropical climates that were partially submerged on the coasts

Explanation:

The distribution of the world's major coal reserves supports the the theory of plate tectonics because the regions where they formed were in tropical climates around 300 million years ago.

Coal is a fossil fuel used to produce energy when burnt.

They are formed in tropical swamps where there is luxuriant plants life.

To form a coal, a terrain such as swamp must have rich plant life. The plant is rapidly buried and cut off from the oxic environment. Further burial under heat and pressure transforms the plant matter into coal.

  • The major reserves of coal in the world today is found in Europe and North America
  • These are temperate regions whose conditions do not favor the formation of coal.
  • Those regions must have moved from around the equator to their present day position.
  • The coal formed when they were much closer to the equator around 300 million years ago.
