Answer: (C) Not crossed the basement membrane, so it can be surgically removed with little chance of growing back.

Explanation: Pap smear, also known as a Pap test, is a diagnostic process to test for cancer of the cervix or cervical cancer.

A Pap smear involves collecting cells from your cervix to check forabnormal cells, which is often cause by Human papillomavirus (HPV).

However, if the test is positive and the surgeon diagnosed "cancer in situ of the cervix.", it established that the tumor (proliferated cells) hasn't grown beyond the base of the membrane. So, the abnormal cells can be removed through surgery and further cell outgrow might not be experienced.

Answer: C. It means the tumor has not crossed the basement membrane of the womb (cervix) and can be surgically removed with a very low risk of growing back or spreading to other areas

Explanation: Cancer is said to be "in situ" when abnormal cells(cancerous cells) are still in the original place they were formed and has neither spread to other regions nor moved from the same position. These types of cancer are well contained and can be removed surgically to prevent them from being malignant thereby spreading to other regions.

Cancer in situ is usually referred to as stage 0(zero) cancer as it has not invaded nearby regions which makes it highly treatable which usually involves surgically removing the tumor and sometimes radiation.

If you compared people living in poverty in the United States with those living in poverty in peripheral or developing nations,
mr Goodwill [35]

In Latin America poverty is structural and is becoming increasingly entrenched. Some governments strengthen and expand and others generate policies that help part of that population have greater possibilities to improve their living conditions.

In recent years, levels of poverty in the US have grown at a rapid pace and the living conditions of this segment of the population have also declined. They face great problems such as the strong inequality, the persistence of racism or the existence of a bias from rich and powerful sectors.

Currently, governments in developing countries and North America, lack policies that provide assistance to the most vulnerable sectors of the population. The fundamental difference is that in Latin America, poverty has always existed and they can access basic services at no cost. Although they are crowded and do not give enough coverage.

On the other hand, although it would seem like a help, the possibilities of obtaining money in the USA through credits means that the populations living in poverty become impoverished even more.

Poverty is difficult everywhere in the world. And, unfortunately, lately, countries tend to ignore it, accentuating differences and widening the gap between social classes.

He has been rehearsing his part for the past two months, but on the day that the play is scheduled to open, Steve awakens with a bad case of laryngitis and is unable to perform. At this point, Steve is most likely experiencing

A. frustration

B. conflict

C. pressure

D. burnout

Answer:

At this point, Steve is most likely experiencing A. frustration.

Explanation:

The passage does not give us any details to lead us to believe Steve is experiencing conflict, pressure, or burnout. T<u>he only possible answer with the details provided is frustration. Frustration is the feeling of exasperation or anger caused by the impossibility of doing or achieving something. Steve was excited about having the lead role. He was most likely looking forward to the day when the play would start. Waking up with a bad case of laryngitis means he will most likely not be able to perform, which is a cause of frustration.</u>

Lesechka [4]

One parent picks up the child from daycare while the other parent goes to the grocery store and begins to make dinner. This is an example of which principle is at work?

The correct answer is There are gains from trade.

<h3>Why are there gains from trade?</h3>

The price of one commodity relative to the other commodity that the two countries agree to trade. Good trade conditions allow a country to import goods at a lower opportunity cost than the cost of producing goods domestically, thus benefiting the country from trade.

Trade is central to ending world poverty. Countries that are open to international trade tend to grow faster, innovate, be more productive, and provide people with higher incomes and more opportunities. Open trade also benefits low-income households by providing consumers with more affordable goods and services.
