Some reminders are necessary:
Artery does not have valves, the blood pressure on it is very high, there is no risk of blood backflow, so it does not need valves
Arteries are vessels that transport blood from the heart to capillaries.
Veins are vessels that transport blood back to the heart from capillaries.


According to these reminders, you could conclude that:
A is false (no backflow in arteries)
C is false (no backflow in arteries)
D is false ( veins take blood to the heart)
so the right answer is B

How to be brave<br><br> How can I be scared of no one
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:  I hope this helps. I will pray for you

2 Timothy 1:7," For the spirit God gave us does not make us timid but gives us power, love, and self-discipline.

Joshua 1:9, “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”

"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you."

“But you, take courage! Do not let your hands be weak, for your work shall be rewarded.”

The LORD is my light and my salvation-- whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life-- of whom shall I be afraid? When evil men advance against me to devour my flesh, when my enemies and my foes attack me, they will stumble and fall. Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then will I be confident.

I don't know if you're religious but God is always with you to keep you strong and faithful even when you feel scared.

When should clients, who don’t require PPIs or H2 inhibitors, take their antacids?
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

c) Whenever heartburn occurs (prn) Q.I.D.

Explanation:

  • Antacids are OTC drugs (no prescription needed) used to treat heartburn. They are usually salts (aluminium, calcium or magnesium) that neutralize the excess of acid in the stomach.

  • Examples of antacids are: Pepto Bismol (P&G), Maalox (SANOFI) and Tums (GSK)

  • There are other types of medications that control heartburn, but they do it through a different mechanism: instead of neutralizing the excess of acid, they inhibit the production of acid in the stomach. These are: PPIs (Proton Pump Inhibitors) and H2 inhibitors/blockers. These medications have important side effects and interactions, which is why they shouldn't be taken instead of an antacid to relief sporadic heartburn symptoms.

  • Ranitidine (Zantac, by SANOFI) is an example of an H2 inhibitor, and Pantoprazole (Protonix, by Pfizer) is an example of a PPI.

  • People who present heartburn only from time to time and have no underlying reflux disease are not prescribed PPIs or H2 inhibitors. It is advised that they take antacids after meals when heartburn occurs, but not in a routinely manner and not for more than 2 weeks. If symptoms persist or worsen, clients should see a doctor.

  • Diet and lifestyle changes are also recommended for people who present heartburn; these include: avoiding foods that trigger it such as fried and spicy food & carbonated beverages, eating smaller meals, maintaining a healthy weight, avoiding smoking, and avoiding lying down after eating.
