Are found only in _____ skin, and detect skin deflection.
Tanya [424]

Answer:

Merkel’s disks: glabrous

Explanation:

Merkel's disks are nerve endings consisting of axonal branches that end in flat expansions and are implicated in the sensation of touch and pressure. Each of the nerve endings is associated with specialized epithelial cells. They can be found in the basal layers of the epidermis just above the basement membrane surface and are associated with rounded elevations of thick epidermis in the hairy skin. In addition, it is important to note that Merkel Disks are found only in glabrous skin and detect skin deflection.

Identify whether each circumstance provided will promote an increase or decrease in blood pressure
pashok25 [27]
Circumstance <span>that cause an increase in Blood Pressure:
</span>
- increasing levels of aldosterone ((influences the reabsorption of sodium and excretion of potassium in the kidneys. This will indirectly influence the blood pressure since the volume of blood will change)

<span>- vasoconstriction ( blood vessels increase their contraction, which equals to more pressure)
</span>
-increased release of renin (Converts angiotensinogen, secreted in the liver, into angiotensin I).
- increased activity of Angiotensin-converting enzyme ( this enzyme converts angiotensin I into angiotensin II increasing vasoconstriction).

Circumstances that cause<span> a Decrease in Blood Pressure:
</span>
<span>- decreased sodium reabsorption ( by decreasing sodium, the amount of water will also decrease or , in other words,will be excreted. Less water, will decrease volume of blood and that means less blood pressure)
</span>
- vasodilation (The smooth muscle in the <span>blood vessels decrease their contraction, which equals to less pressure)
</span>
- declining levels of ADH(ADH <span>is produced in the hypothalamus and stimulates vasoconstriction plus it promotes water reabsorption in the kidneys. To reduce blood pressure, is important to have ADH levels reduced)</span>

Secondary bacterial infections occur frequently during influenza epidemics primarily because?
Vadim26 [7]

Because the virus causes severe tissue necrosis and inflammation, secondary bacterial infections happen often during influenza outbreaks.

What are Secondary infections?

There are several ways that a primary infection can increase susceptibility to disease, leading to a secondary infection.

A secondary infection is one that develops during or following the treatment for a primary illness. It has been determined that a secondary bacterial infection affects up to 75% of people who acquire pneumonia after contracting the flu.

The prevalence of influenza and related secondary bacterial illnesses can be decreased by using infection prevention techniques. The best method to prevent this is to be vaccinated against the flu every year and practice proper hygiene, like frequent, thorough handwashing.
