I'll try to explain, because I've had tubes before.  In fact, I still have them.

For me, tubes were put in because of too many ear infections, and excessive water in my ear.  The tube helped drain the water out.  You can see A picture I have in a file.  The tubes can be put I believe in the ear drum.  They're put there to help drain water that has trouble getting out on its own.

never [62]
The correct answer is C. Short tandem repeats are mostly different in unrelated peoples' DNA. Therefore, it is used to match the DNA of the people of the related family for identification of bodies, during a mass disaster like World Trade Centre. DNA from the nucleus is extracted in the process, and the STR containing regions are amplified and studied and can be matched with that of the relatives.

Certain conditions can cause decreased sodium in the blood. Specific causes of hyponatremia include:

Water poisoning (water replacement without electrolyte replacement).

Problems in the kidneys, heart or liver.

Medications: such as diuretics, Heparin, certain chemotherapeutics (Aminoglutethimide, Cyclophosphamide and Vincristine).

Conditions related to steroids, hormones or metabolic defects, such as a syndrome that alters the secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SSIHA). If this occurs, you urinate frequently and the kidneys excrete too much sodium. This can result from many conditions, including certain types of lung cancer.
