The nurse suspects that an older adult patient has features of basal cell carcinoma appearing in form of a small dome-shaped lesion with a pearly surface on the face.
What is Basal cell carcinoma?
The most prevalent type of skin cancer that is not melanoma is basal cell carcinoma (BCC).
- It is a tumour that causes localized damage and has a variety of clinical and histological characteristics.
- When viewed at low power magnification, a basaloid epithelial tumour emerging from the epidermis is the primary characteristic of basal cell carcinoma.
- Normally, the palisade-like basaloid epithelium forms a fissure from the surrounding tumour stroma.
The nuclei grow congested in the centre, with scattered mitotic figures and visible necrotic bodies.
The presence of a mucinous stroma serves as a helpful distinguishing factor from other basaloid cutaneous tumours. Additionally, some tumours may exhibit foci of regression, which are regions of eosinophilic stroma devoid of basaloid nests.
Hence, the answer is a small dome-shaped lesion with a pearly surface on the face.

Answer:
True
Explanation:
<u>Rotational and linear motions are analogous to each other.</u>
<u>The inertia of a body in a linear motion is its mass.</u> This can be seen from Newton's second law of thermodynamics:
F = ma
The larger the value of the force, the larger the inertia is (m) and the slower it accelerates.
<u>The inertia of a body in a rotational body is it moment of inertia (I).</u> Both I and m are same but I depends on both the shape and mass of the rotating body.
For example, The inertia of a solid disk with mass M and radius R is:
Hence, the statement is true.
The nurse administers cimetidine to a 75-year-old client diagnosed with a Gastric ulcer the nurse should monitor the client for the following adverse reactions Headache, Sleepiness, Confusion, Dizziness, Nausea which contribute for the change in Metal status.
- Cimetidine is a H
Receptor Antagonist. - Gastric partial cells contains receptors for Histamine.
- Histamine is released from the Enterochromaffin cells upon the stimulation from food intake or from Vagus nerve stimulation.
- Thus Histamine released from Enterochromaffin cells binds to H receptors on the parietal cells and increases the secretion of HCl.
- Cimetidine has totally opposite effect and decreases the secretion of HCl from the parietal cells.
- Not only on gastric cells H receptors are also present in CNS where they stimulate brain cells.
- The above point justifies the adverse effects of Cimetidine.
- Patients over the age of 50 or those who are severely ill may experience transient confusion while taking H
blockers, particularly cimetidine.
Hence from these points we can conclude that patients who are above 50 years and receiving Cimetidine medication for gastric ulcer should be monitored for the above mentioned adverse reactions.

Answer: B) The number of electron in its valence shell.
Explanation:
Outermost electrons of the atoms which can participate in the chemical bond formation is known as valence electrons.
Atoms either transfer or share its valence electrons during chemical bond formation. Atoms transfer or share electrons to attain octet or in other words stability.
Generally, 8 electrons are required in their outermost shell or valence shell in order to attain stability. This rule is known as octet rule.
For example, general electronic configuration of sodium belonging to group 1 is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1.
No. of valence electrons in Na = 1
by loosing 1 electron, its outer shell electronic configuration become = 1s2 2s2 2p6 (Octet)
Hence, sodium and other group 1 elements are very reactive.
Similarly, halogens (ns2 np5) by gaining 1 electron attain octet (ns2 np6). Hence halogens are also very reactive.
Carbon atom belonging to group 14 has 4 valence electrons (ns2 np2) and share all 4 valence electrons to attain octet and hence reactive.
Nobel gases have octet in their outermost shell (ns2 np6), hence they are most nonreactive element.
