The complete question is as follows;

Atherosclerosis is characterized by the buildup of arterial plaque. When plaque first begins to form, on which part of the blood vessel do the monocytes bind after taking in cholesterol-rich lipoproteins?

Answer: Endothelial lining

Explanation:

Atherosclerosis is a condition in which the fatty deposits develop in the blood vessels and which slows down or restricts the movement of blood in the blood vessels. This condition is also called as the hardening of the arteries. The condition develop due to build up of the fatty deposits like fatty acids, cellular wastes, calcium and cholesterol-rich lipoproteins. These deposits results in the development of the blood clots or plaques in the blood vessels which restricts the flow of blood.

The atherosclerosis or the formation of the plaque generally result in the inner lining of the blood vessel or the endothelial lining of the blood vessel.

Answer:when plague begins to form, the arteries then become narrow.

Explanation:

Atherosclerosis is as a result of excessive build up of plague in the arteries ( blood vessels that carries blood from the heart to other parts of the body).

These plague are a build up of calcium , fat , cholesterol in the arteries.

This in turn reduces blood flow to some body tissues. This pieces of plague can breakdown and cause blood clot leading to heart attack or stroke or heart failure.

</span> </span> The key difference between analgesia and anesthesia is that the anesthesia is an induced, temporary state with one or more of the following characteristics: analgesia (relief from or prevention of pain), paralysis (extreme muscle relaxation), amnesia (loss of memory), and unconsciousness. Analgesia can be achieved by giving a pain killer or an analgesic to the patient. Basically, analgesia is a part of anesthesia. Anesthesia is given in carefully selected situations and, in contrast, analgesia is given whenever a patient needs pain relief.

Babies with esophageal atresia will have an inability to swallow amniotic fluid leading to the builtup - this statement by the woman indicates an understanding of the relationship between polyhdyramnios and esophageal atresia.

Explanation:

Polyhdramnios is the excessive builtup of amniotic fluid in the uterus during pregnancy.

Many congenital anomalies of the fetus are associated with a disturbance in the swallowing and absorption of fluids by the fetus. Anomalies like esophageal or duodenal atresia can lead to increased amniotic fluid retention.

As the fetus grows, it swallows the amniotic fluid and maintains a balance between production and absorption of the fluid. Signs of polyhydramnios are visible with a huge belly of the pregnant woman's filled with the fluid and these are mostly detected in the late second trimester of pregnancy.

Polyhyramnios with respect to the fetus reflects any congenital anomalies, heart or kidney problems, or fetal anemia.
