Acute glomerulonephritis usually occurs as a result of bacterial infection such as seen with
a beta-hemolytic streptococcal infection or impetigo. RBC and protein found in the urine
and elevation of blood pressure are symptoms associated with glomerulonephritis.
Answer:
the results are published in a journal where studies are reviewed by other experts in the field.

Answer:
True
Explanation:
Pacemaker cells, unlike other neurons in the body, can depolarized themselves (and therefore can fire action potentials) without the need of an external innervation of the autonomic nervous system.
Each class of pacemaker cells has its own intrinsic rate.
For example, sinoatrial node rate is 60-100 bpm (the normal heart frequency).
The atrioventricular node is also part of the electrical conduction system of the heart. When the sinoatrial node fails, atrioventricular node takes the lead (40-60 bpm).
Answer: Fibrous pericardium and Serous Pericardium
Explanation:
The pericardium can be defined as the fibroserous sac( double layered) which covers the whole heart. The gap between two layers of serous pericardium is filled with serous fluid. This fluid protects the heart from external shocks.
Fibrous pericardium
This layer is the most superficial layer which consists of dense connective tissue. This layer of the heart protects it from over filling of blood, anchors the heart to the surrounding wall.
Serous pericardium
This layer provides lubrication to the heart by resisting the friction which occurs during the various type of heart function.
