Sulforaphane, a cancer-preventing compound found in broccoli, helps cells defend themselves for days against highly reactive and

toxic molecules called oxidants. Unlike standard antioxidants that use the molecular equivalent of hand-to-hand combat, the sulforaphane works indirectly by enabling cells to create a diverse group of enzymes. These "phase 2" enzymes protect against cancer by blocking select chemicals from becoming carcinogens. Research shows that these enzymes have the ability to detoxify oxidants, which increases their value in disease prevention. Which one of the following can be properly inferred from the passage? (A) A diet composed largely of fruits and vegetables will help to prevent cancer. (B) Sulforaphane is essential to preventing all kinds of cancer. (C) Sulforaphane requires energy to create an army of cancer-protecting enzymes (D) At least some cancer is caused from some chemicals that are stimulated to transform and become a carcinogen. (E) A diet deficient in antioxidants is a common cause of cancer.

What does an AED do to restart the heart?
Andrei [34K]

Answer:Does an AED actually restart a heart? In short the answer is no; there is a misconception that the heart stops during an SCA. In fact it continues to beat in an irregular way (fibrillation) which prevents it from pumping oxygenated blood around the body to the brain and other vital organs.

My sister's dog is a Chihuahua and Italian Greyhound mixed and she has 2 bumps on her head. What does it mean?
Tomtit [17]
Are the bumps kinda hard and squishy? If so they could possibly be either fat deposits or tumors. Its always best to get an expert approval so I recommend taking the dog to the vet just to be on the safe side.

Rainbow [258]

Rarely, the disease may be spread by blood transfusion. It is not otherwise spread between people.The parasite is known to reproduce sexually only in the cat family. However, it can infect most types of warm-blooded animals, including humans. Diagnosis is typically by testing blood for antibodies or by testing amniotic fluid for the parasite's DNA.
