Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Action potential occurs when the membrane potential of a cell changes. The electrical charge is needed for the transmission of action potential.

Sodium ions are present more outside the cell than inside whereas the concentration of potassium ions is higher inside the cell. The nerve cell firing occurs due to the unequal distribution and movement of ions inside and outside the cell. Three sodium ions are move into the cell whereas two potassium ions are move outside the cell. Hence, the electrical charge is required fro the neuron cell firing that results due to the ions exchange inside and outside of the cell.

Thus, the answer is true.

Explain how and why drinking water affects:<br> (A) Blood plasma<br> (B) Blood plasma osmolarity

Oxana [17]

Answer:

(A) - The volume of the blood plasma increases on overhydration and decreaes on dehydration.

(B) - Osmolality of blood increases with the dehydration and decreases with the overhydration.

Explanation:

If the levels of drinking water is increased, then the plasma becomes more dilute and the plasma volume increases because <u>the water will be reabsorbed more and which as a result reduces plasma concentration of the solutes and increases volume of plasma.</u>

Plasma osmolality measures electrolyte-water balance of the body. <u>As mentioned, above on overhydration, the plasma concentration of the solutes decraeses which also decreases osmolality. So, Osmolality of blood increases with the dehydration and decreases with the overhydration. </u>Increased osmolality in blood stimulate the secretion of antidiuretic hormone which results in the increased water reabsorption and therefore, more concentrated urine and hence blood plasma with less concentration.

Mrs. Shields is covered by original medicare. She sustained a hip fracture and is being successfully treated for that condition.

I would tell that original Medicare will cover Mrs. Schmidt's skilled nursing services provided during the first 20 days of her stay

<h3>What is Medicare?</h3>

Medicare is defined as the insurance developed by the US government that aims at reducing the coat of health care delivery services for its citizens.

For nursing and rehabilitative care for an individual for a long period of time, the insurance covers only the first 20 days after which they would have a coinsurance until the next 100 days.

Therefore, I would tell that original Medicare will cover Mrs. Schmidt's skilled nursing services provided during the first 20 days of her stay.
