Answer:
"How many minutes after meals should I take the levothyroxine dose?"
Explanation:
Levothyroxine is a synthetic hormone that is prescribed for patients with deficiency in the production of thyroxine, a hormone released by the thyroid gland. It is important that this medication is only used with prescription and medical monitoring, where the correct way to take the medication will be shown, solving the problem and decreasing the chances of side effects.
One of the main instructions on the intake of levothyroxine is that it should be taken when the patient has not yet eaten and is on an empty stomach. In this case, a patient who wishes to take the medicine after meals demonstrates the need for additional teaching about the medicine.
Answer:
Since this question has multiple subquestions in it, I will give you the answer to them as follows:
1. Which neuron would activate a muscle? They are called multipolar neurons, they are found mostly originating from the CNS itself and they are multipolar because when a neuron stimulates a muscle, one signal from just one terminal is not enough; it requires the stimulation from several neurnal terminals.
2. Which neuron would be found in the retina of the eye? A bipolar neuron. This is because these neurons will fulfill a double function: to activate the muscles of the retina, and also they will convey messages taken by the sense of sight, towards the brain for interpretation and integration.
3. Which neuron is a sensory neuron found in a reflex arc? The answer again is a unipolar neuron. These neurons will not reach the brain itself, but rather the reflex arc site on the spinal cord. Their task is to relay sensations from the site that has been stimulated to the spinal cord and from there to the affected place, with the correct response.
4. Which neuron is never myelinated? Again the answer is the bipolar neurons found connecting the retina and the eyes. The reason is that these neurons are capable of relying fast messages to and from the brain, whereas in myelinated ones, messages go slower due to the myeling sheaths.
5. Which neuron is typically involved in the special senses of sight and smell? Once more the answer is the bipolar neurons that are most commonly found connecting the different organs of these two senses. Since these have such unique capabilities: relying information for integration and sensory and motor responses, their action potentials travel fast, and have a short distance to go.

Answer:
The most correct answer is: It varies in consistency based on the amount of protein fibers and fluid
Explanation:
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is the environment surrounding cells, which is normally composed by fibers (i. e.: collagen, elastin, etc...), soluble proteins and other macromolecules (such as hyaluronic acid) embedded in fluid. The relative concentration and composition of those components conditions, among other things, the physical consistency of the ECM.
- No blood vessel arises from ECM; they derive from specific precursor cells. Additionally, cartilage is an avascular (has no blood vessel) type of connective tissue.
- ECM does provide oxygen and nutrients to diverse tissue, including bone, however bone tissue <em>does</em> have blood vessels.
- Neuronogenesis (generation of new neurons) takes place within the developing nervous system, with neuronal precursor cells being thoroughly surrounded by other cells such as radial glia. Typically, neighboring ECM has a minor or negligible role in this process.
Answer:
Misdiagnosis
Explanation:
If you do not have a complete medical file, you can misdiagnose the patient.
