Answer:

Homeostasis.

As he went in the air-conditioned room he stops sweating because the body internal and external temperature is cool enough.Hence, the body temperature is maintained by the homeostasis.

Secondary level of protein structure

Explanation:

The proteins are formed of the monomer units called amino acids which bond with each other via peptide bond and form a linear peptide structure called the primary level structure of the protein.

The proteins to perform several functions in a cell undergoes structural conformation and attain the helical form called alpha helix due to the involvement of alpha carbon in bond formation and a pleated sheet called beta-pleated sheet due to the involvement of beta carbon. These structures are known as a secondary level of protein structure.

Research appropriate treatment for bacterial meningitis and describe a comprehensive plan to treat those affected as well as pre
Andrej [43]

Treatment

Meningitis is an infection of the membranes, meninges that surrounds and protects the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord). Bacterial meningitis must be treated immediately with intravenous antibiotics and sometimes corticosteroids and, of course, the antibiotic depends on the type of bacteria causing the infection.

Prevention

First of all, to prevent the spread of bacterial meningitis it is important to practice good hygiene, such as frequent handwashing. Since the factors that increase the risk include spending time in communities (school, campus or college) because it spreads easily, children should be aware and vaccinated. As several types of bacteria can cause bacterial meningitis, a range of vaccines is wide (e.g. meningococcal vaccine, Hib vaccine).

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Most people who get the flu (either seasonal or 2009 H1N1) will have mild illness, will not need medical care or antiviral drugs, and will recover in less than two weeks. Some people, however, are more likely to get flu complications that result in being hospitalized and occasionally result in death

On day five of the flu, you should be starting to feel better. Your fever should be gone and the congestion should be lessening, though your cough may linger. You should still stay home, rest, and take plenty of fluids
