A dehydrated patient needs to be rehydrated with an IV of Ringer's solution. At the start of their rehydration therapy, right wh

en the IV is first connected, what is the tonicity of the cells of their body compared to the Ringer's solution? Once the patient is fully rehydrated, and the IV is stopped, what is the tonicity of the cells in the patient's body compared to the Ringer's solution?

So what type of IV solutions are hypertonic?  These are the common ones:

<span>10% Dextrose in Water3% Saline5% Dextrose in 0.45% Saline5% Dextrose in 0.9% Saline</span>

Notice that three of the solutions contain Dextrose, which is a sugar.  The dextrose is included as a way of providing extra calories to the patient.  In fact, even though these dextrose solutions are hypertonic, once the dextrose is absorbed by the body then only pure water or saline is left in the blood vessels.  These three solutions are primarily used for the purpose of providing the patient with extra calories.

3% saline is typically used to treat severe cases of hyponatremia (low sodium).

xz_007 [3.2K]
A feature of a pedigree that indicate that a certain trait is a dominant trait is that one of the parents always have to have the trait.

There are, however, autosomal dominance and X-linked dominance.

For an autosomal dominant trait: 
- Appears equally frequent in both sexes.
- Both sexes transmit the trait.
- Present in all generations.
- When one parent has the trait and the other doesn't, approximately half of the offspring will present the trait.

For a X-linked dominant trait: 
- Both male and females can present the trait, but more females usually present it.
- Sons with the trait always have a mother that presents the trait as well.
- Daughters with the trait always have either a mother or father that presents the trait, or both.
- Fathers with the trait always have daughters with the same trait.

WARRIOR [948]

<u>Answer:</u>

A is a DNA sequence that binds regulatory proteins that interact with promoter-bound proteins to activate transcription.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Background Knowledge:

DNA contains genes which is a particular segment of DNA. A gene usually has regulatory regions and a structural region.

Promoter: The regulatory region located to the 5 prime end of coding strand of the gene which is called as promoter that controls the binding RNA Polymerase during transcription.

The Terminator is the other regulatory region, located to the 3 prime end of coding strand of the gene. The terminator region causes RNA polymerase to stop transcription.

Structural region is the region present between the promoter and terminator.

Answer of the question is:

A is a DNA sequence that binds regulatory proteins that interact with promoter-bound proteins to activate transcription.
