Your patient is a 10-year-old boy that was born prematurely. now, after measuring his height and weight, you find that his BMI is at the 87th percentile for his age. He is considered to be overweight.
Normal Body mass index for 10-year-old boys ranges from 14.2 to 19.4.
Body mass index (BMI) is calculated through the division of the weight and height of an individual. The BMI is described as the body mass divided by the square of the body height and is represented in units of kg/m².

This could have been a case of polymedication, but I doubt it since it is an 82-year-old woman. I'm not sure if they are antibiotics, but benzodiazepines and anticholinergic drugs can cause amnesia. Or, it is a possibility her primary care doctor gave her the wrong dosage of the antibiotics, causing side effects, one of them possibly being amnesia.
Answer:
<u><em>They’re very costly</em></u>
Explanation:
have good day!
Answer:
The correct answer will be:
1. Acetylcholine binds to receptors on the motor end plate
2. Chemically-regulated ion channels open, causing depolarization
3 End plate potentials trigger action potential(s).
4. Transverse tubules convey potentials into the interior of the cell
5. Ca++ is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum
6. Ca++ binds to troponin, pulling on tropomyosin
7. Binding sites on actin are uncovered, allowing myosin to bind and carry out power strokes
8. Force increases.
9. Ca++ is pumped (re-sequestered) into the sarcoplasmic reticulum
10. Force decreases.
Explanation:
The muscle contraction is a highly controlled mechanism which begins at the neuromuscular junction with the release of the acetylcholine neurotransmitter. This neurotransmitter causes the depolarization of the membrane by binding to the receptors of the motor end plate which generates an action potential. This action potential is transmitted via T-tubules from sarcolemma to the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
The sarcoplasmic reticulum releases calcium ions which binds to the troponin protein. This troponin removes the protein tropomyosin from the actin causing the rotation of the tropomyosin exposing the binding sites for myosin. The myosin binds to the actin using energy from the ATP which pulls the actin causing contraction. Another ATP binds the myosin head which weakens the bond between myosin and actin which releases the myosin which decreases the force between them decreases and the muscles relax.
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.
