Women have a tendency to retain water during part of the menstrual cycle because estrogen mimics the action of <u>aldosterone</u>.
Explanation:
The female sex hormones produced by the ovary (estrogens and progesterone) are substances that, through the blood, will carry messages to all the organs of the female genital system (uterus, tubes and ovaries) to achieve their correct function. Aldosterone concentration normally increases at the time of ovulation and remains elevated during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle. Women present during the premenstrual phase, compared to the luteal and follicular phases, an increase in body weight, due to an increase in fluid retention, this because the menstrual cycle modulates the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. High levels of estrogen and progesterone in the mid-luteal phase are associated with a greater increase in adrenal and renal hormones and retention of more volume.
Attachment is the positive emotional bond that develops between a child and a particular individual.
The tracing of uterine activity measured with a solid-tipped intrauterine pressure catheter (IUPC) depicts no contractions. However, you are palpating contractions that are strong in intensity with a frequency of every 3 minutes and a duration of 60 seconds. A possible cause for this finding is (select an answer): The connections to the system are not connected.
An IUPC counts the number, length, and force of contractions. During palpations peaks of strong intensity is recored.As in this case IUPC seems to be not connected as its near impossible to get no contractions when palpation are high.
And one unit is the amount of pressure required to raise a mercury column by one millimetre. The intensity of the contraction is assessed from the baseline (when the uterus is relaxed) to the rise of the contraction and is recorded in units. According to studies, after spontaneous labour, 200 units of contractions per 10 minutes are typically sufficient for vaginal birth.

<span>Perhaps surprisingly, lakes and rivers constitute a tiny proportion of the world's total freshwater, so answer (b) is correct. Most of the freshwater on our planet is in fact locked up in ice and glaciers, some 68%. The majority of the rest, 30%, is actually underground, in springs and other groundwater feeders. That leaves just 2% that makes up all the rivers, lakes, ponds and other visible freshwater reservoirs that we see in our day-to-day lives.</span>
