Arturiano [62]3 years ago

Answer:

The best explanation for the increased lymphocyte levels in Kaya is that she was not tissue typed prior to her surgery, and her body is mounting an immune response.

Explanation:

When performing an organ transplant, it must be verified whether the organ to be transplanted is compatible -by tissue typing- with the recipient, since it is recognized as a foreign body by the body and can be rejected.

One of the immunological responses to organ rejection is called cell rejection, involving T-helper and cytotoxic lymphocytes.

<u>It is very likely that in Kaya's case the tests have not been performed correctly, and she is experiencing rejection of the organ she received</u>. The progressive increase in lymphocytes may be an indication of this.

The other options are not possible because:

  • <em>Administering </em><u><em>antibiotics</em></u><em> should not raise lymphocyte levels. </em>
  • <em>There is no evidence of </em><u><em>antigen </em></u><em>attack. </em>
  • <u><em>Immunosuppressant drugs</em></u><em> do not increase lymphocyte count.</em>

Which of the following best describes REM sleep?
Stells [14]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Sleep in which the brain becomes more active but muscle activity is blocked.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The brain cycles through five distinct phases during sleep: stages 1, 2, 3, 4, and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. REM sleep makes up about 25% of your sleep cycle and first occurs about 70 to 90 minutes after you fall asleep. Because your sleep cycle repeats, you enter REM sleep several times during the night.

  • During REM sleep, your brain and body are energized and dreaming occurs.
  • REM is thought to be involved in the process of storing memories, learning, and balancing your mood.
  • REM sleep begins in response to signals sent to and from different regions of the brain. Signals are sent to the brain's cerebral cortex, which is responsible for learning, thinking, and organizing information.
