Answer:

Steps recommended to patient for reducing the risk of developing a fungal infection of toenails are regarding to their hygiene, footwear and medications.

Explanation:

  1. Avoid borrowing someone else's shoes or sharing socks or towels with someone who has toenail fungus.
  2. An orthotic device can be used to add cushioning and/or control over-pronation, support the longitudinal arch, and reduce stress on the lower leg muscles.
  3. Wash your feet regularly, and dry them thoroughly when they get wet.
  4. Keep toenails trimmed, and be sure to disinfect any pedicure tools before using them.
  5. If there is any toenail fungus, see your foot doctor. The doctor might remove as much of the nail as possible by trimming, filing or dissolving it.
  6. Medicated nail polish might be prescribed for a localized infection, but a serious infection will likely be treated with a prescription oral antifungal medication

What five factors affect photosynthesis and it's rate?
mixer [17]
There are more than 5 factors, but here are perhaps the most important ones:
1) Light: Light energy is a crucial component in photosynthesis, as it is the primary energy source of the process.
2) Carbon Dioxide: Another key ingredient in photosynthesis.
3) Temperature: There is an optimum temperature for photosynthesis that varies from organism to organism. Too cold or two hot, and rate of photosynthesis will be lower. 
4) Water - Like almost all life process, water is a key component in photosynthesis. 
5) Oxygen. A common misconception is that plants only "breathe in" carbon dioxide and expel oxygen. Plant cells actually require oxygen as well in order to function, and thus oxygen is a necessary part of photosynthesis.

Which statement is not true?
Kamila [148]

Answer:

b) Reptiles, birds, and some mammals produce amniote eggs.

Explanation:

All the mammals produce amniotic eggs. An amniotic egg is an egg that has four extraembryonic membranes including amnion. Amnion is a fluid-filled sac that serves as a cushion and does not allow the egg to desiccate. Since mammals are land animals, they have amniotic eggs to prevent any damage to the embryo from desiccation and physical injury.
