Answer:

ANSWER: C

Keratoacanthoma is a relatively common lesion in the elderly, but is difficult to distinguish from squamous

cell carcinoma. However, it is easily distinguished from Bowen's disease, basal cell carcinoma, Kaposi's

sarcoma, and seborrheic keratosis. Most keratoacanthomas undergo a benign self-healing course but may

leave a large, unsightly scar. Treatment is almost always preferred, both for cosmetic reasons and to

prevent the rare case of malignant transformation. Proper treatment for a lesion with this appearance is

excisional biopsy in order to distinguish between keratoacanthoma and squamous cell carcinoma.lanation:

Answer:

1- 0,04 U/ml

2- 1mg/ml

3- 0,5 mcg/ml

4- 250 miliunits per hour.

5- 17 miliunits per minute at a 100 ml/h speed.

Explanation:

4 and 5-25 mL/h) x ((10 u)/(1000 mL)) = .250 u/h (250 miliunits per hour)

At a delivery rate of 100 mL/h, you can deliver is 1000 milliunits per hour, or about 17 milliunits per minute.

What is the name of the medical term for an abnormal condition of artery hardening and why it is dangerous to have this disease?
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The correct answer to the questions: What is the name of the medical term for an abnormal condition of artery hardening, and why is it dangerous to have this disease? would be as follows:

1. The name of the disease in which the walls of the arteries become hardened and the lumen of the vessels through which the blood flows become constricted, is atherosclerosis, or also arteriosclerotic vascular disease. This disease speaks about the deposition of fatty and triglyceride globes on the walls of the arteries, causing an obstruction of the lumen, and therefore difficulting the passage of blood through them. Also, these deposits make the normal flexibility and resilience of the arteries much less, which is why it seems like the vessels were becoming hardened.

2. It is a very dangerous condition precisely because of what it implies. First, by reducing the blood flow through the arteries, the organs that depend on the proper arrival of oxygenated blood to them, and the removal of waste, for proper functioning, start to suffer the consequences. One such organs are the kidneys, whose cells begin to die, and the organ to be damaged, due to a lack of proper oxygenation, and because they have to work double to filter the blood that flows to them. The other reason is that the body responds to the lowering of blood flow by increasing arterial pressure on the walls. This further decreases flow due to obstruction, and also increases the suffering of the organs, like the kidneys. If atherosclerotic disease is not controlled, it can lead to permanent loss of organs, and even death.

What is the mechanism by which the kidney forms a dilute urine? What is the mechanism by which the kidney forms a concentrated u
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

The mechanism of by which kidney forms dilute or concentrated urine is based on the amount of ADH( Antidiuretic hormone) present in the blood. Collecting duct have receptors for the binding of ADH hormone.

Formation of concentrated Urine:                                                        

When the ADH hormone binds to the receptors present on the cells of collecting duct it open the water channels present on it. Once the water channel is opened the duct becomes permeable to water and reabsorption of water takes place in the body making urine concentrated.

Formation of diluted urine:                                                                    

When ADH is not secreted in the blood, the collecting duct remains impermeable to water molecules which results in production of diluted urine. This happens when blood contains sufficient water.
