Answer:

The answer that would fill in the blank for the statement: Insertion of a device into the muscle to measure the pressure within the muscle is monitoring of:___, would be: Interstitial Fluid Pressure, or IFP.

Explanation:

Normally, between tissues, little to no fluid should exist. However, in certain diseases, like for example in tumorous cancers, the blood vessels, and lymphatic vessels, become leaky, and allow fluids to move from them into the interstitial space. When this amount of fluid exceeds the limits, organs become severelly affected, including the muscles, bones, and the skin. The measuring of this IFP allows doctors to know how severe the problem is getting and in extreme cases may lead to the insertion of methods to drain this fluid, and use of medication as well.

avanturin [10]

Answer:

D. 4 times as great

Explanation:

The inertia of an object is the resistance offered by the object to change in its motion or position.

Then concept of inertia is obtained from Newton's first law of motion which states that an object which is not subjected to any net external force will remain its position of rest or constant velocity of motion until some net external force acts on it. The object at rest will then start to move whereas the object moving at constant velocity will experience a change in its speed or direction of motion.

This reluctance to change position is greater, the more massive an object is as well as the higher the speed of motion of the object. Thus, inertia is directly proportional to the mass of the object as well to the velocity of an object in motion.

From Newton's first law, inertia can be calculated as the force to be overcome to mobile an object, i.e. Inertia = F = ma

Where m is mass of object, a = acceleration of the object.

Objects on the earth's surface experience a constant acceleration, g.

Thus for a 1 kg mass, Inertia = 1 × g

For a 4 kg mass, inertia = 4 × g

The inertia of a 4 kg mass is four times as great as a 1 kg mass.

How much energy does nuclear fusion generate
Strike441 [17]

Explanation:

Each D-T fusion event releases 17.6 MeV (2.8 x 10-12 joule, compared with 200 MeV for a U-235 fission and 3-4 MeV for D-D fusion). On a mass basis, the D-T fusion reaction releases over four times as much energy as uranium fission. :):)

A host organism needs time, often days, to mount an immune response against a new antigen, but memory cells permit a rapid respo
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The answer is <em><u>D. </u></em>

Explanation:

Viruses can evade the processing and presentation of antigens, for example by interfering with the expression of MHC class I proteins, although this increases their susceptibility to be detected by natural killer cells (NK). However, some members of the herpesvirus, papillomavirus, retrovirus, poxvirus and flavivirus families have also developed strategies to escape the attack of NK cells and promote their survival, inhibiting cell apoptosis. Finally, some pathogens often change surface antigens frequently, as in the case of influenza viruses (orthomyxovirus).

The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) affects CD4 + T cells and degrades the host's ability to counterattack with a strong cell-mediated immune response. There are so many tactics of immune evasion used by HIV, which have so far hindered the development of an effective vaccine.
