Answer:
Destruction of the majority of the adrenal cortex would most likely result in decreased levels of mineralocorticoids, sex corticoids and glucocorticoids.
Explanation:
Adrenal glands are conical pyramid shaped glands. A pair of glands present above each kidney. It has an outer adrenal cortex region and inner adrenal medulla. Cortex and medulla secrete different hormones and are also regulated in different ways.
Adrenal cortex has three layers:
a. Outer zona glomerulosa: secretes mineralocorticoids like aldosterone - regulates the metabolism of sodium and potassium.
b. Middle zona fasciculata: secretes glucocorticoids like cortisol - regulates the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins.
c. Inner zona reticularis: secretes sex corticoids like Androstenedione - stimulates the development of external sexual characteristics in males.
In a condition called Addison's disease, major part of the adrenal cortex is destroyed which results in deficiency of both mineralocorticoids and glucocorticoids. Symptoms include bronze like pigmentation of skin, low BP, low plasma levels of Na+, high plasma levels of K+, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea.
The autonomic nervous system is further divided into sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems
I’m pretty sure it’s d cause that’s not inflammation
I'm pretty sure the answer is 25%. you can use a Punnett square
I believe that this question is a multiple answer question and the best answer to support this is
Oral temperature of 101° F (38.3° C)
The client's wound which has purulent drainage, according to the nursing diagnosis, is infected. Due to the infection, the client's temperature would rise. The rest of the multiple answers attached to this question like wound healing by primary intention, heart rate of 88 beats per minute and dry and intact wound dressing are just normal assessment findings.
