Answer:

B. They have a single small nucleus.

Explanation:

The presence of large nucleus is a characteristic feature of cells that frequently undergo cell division. Cancer cells are characterized by uncontrolled continuous cell division even when the new cells are not required by the body.

This leads to the formation of benign or metastatic tumors. To undergo continuous cell division, the cancer cells have a large nucleus. The nucleus of the cancer cells is mostly hyperchromatic and distinct due to higher nuclear to cytoplasmic ratio. It allows these cells to exhibit the uncontrolled cell division.

A patient is to be administered a dose of 250 mg of a medication subcutaneously. available: 250 mg/1.5 ml amp. amount of drug to

Amiraneli [1.4K]

According to the question, the amount of the drug administered is 250 milligram (mg). The available dose of the drug is 250 mg per 1.5 mL (milligram). So, for the administration of the 250 mg drug, 1.5 mL of the available drug concentration should be used.

We need to determine the amount of the drug must be drawn in cc (cubic centimeter).

$1mL = 1cc$

$1.5 mL = 1.5 cc$

So, the amount to be drawn is 1.5 cc.

The sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system prepares the body for stressful situations that require energy expendit

k0ka [10]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The sympathetic autonomic nervous system activates the body for hormonal or neuronal responses also known as fight- or - flight response, For example during an fire emergency and there is a need to run. The response occurs primarily by via impulses transmitted through the sympathetic nervous system, and also secondarily through catecholamines secreted from the adrenal medulla.

Although the sympathetic autonomic nervous system is activated in stressful conditions, it needs to be constantly active even at a basal level to maintain homeostasis.
