Answer:

The answer is A. Loperamide

Explanation:

Antidiarrheals are drugs which are given to treat acute diarrhea by providing symptomatic relief for diarrhea but do not eliminate the cause of the diarrhea.The most common drug used is Loperamide (Imodium) which is an opioid receptor agonist. Loperamide decreases the flow of fluids and electrolytes in the bowel and reduces bowel movement by acting on the mu opioid receptors in the myenteric plexus of the large intestine. However, when taken in large quantities it gives high euphoria similar to opioids.

Cognitive development in the __________ stage involves changing from reflex behavior to intentional action and the attainment of
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Sensorimotor stage

Explanation:

The sensorimotor stage of development, is the first stage of cognitive development of infants, children, and adolescents.  A child of about 2 years of age, is in the sensorimotor stage.

Infants at the early stage of life, sense what is directly in front of them. Their learning pattern at this early stage is a trial and error pattern involving gripping, throwing etc.

As soon as the object is taken away from the direct view of an infant, it ceases to exist to him/her. This is because objects exist to infants when they can sense them and interact with them.

.A significant development during the sensorimotor stage is the understanding of an infant that objects exist and that events occur in the world independently from their actions and what they sense.The infant now has a representation of the object and realizes the object can still exist independently.This is known as object permanence
