RideAnS [48]

Answer:

A) the part of the word Leukocyte which means white is Leuko. It is of Greek origin and derived from the word <em>Leuco</em> which means white, or clear.

B) the part of the same word which means cell is -cyte. It also has a Greek origin and derives from the word <em>Kytos</em> which means <em>vessel.</em>

<em />

C) The letter (o) is is a vowel. Simply defined, vowels are sounds produced without any restrictions or constraints in the vocal tract. In English language, there are lots of vowel sounds. They are mostly represented by the following letters: a, e, i, o, and u.

D) No. Compound words come in various forms. Compounds words are formed when at least two words are used together to create a new word. They can come with any of the vowel sounds mentioned above. For example:

Moon + Light = Moonlight

Basket + Ball = Basketball

Candle + Stick = Candlestick

As you would note, none of the compound words above have the same vowel sound as the (o) found in Leuk<u>o</u>cyte.

The vowel sound (o) found in Leukocyte is written as <em>uh</em>. It is similar to the pronunciation found in the following words: up, mother, sun, cut, run etc.

Cheers!

lubasha [3.4K]

During pregnancy, the form of estrogen that predominates is produced by the placenta, and may be useful in prenatal screening is Human chorionic gonadotropin hormone (hCG).

hCG can detect the pregnancy  ten days after conception. It is the earliest method to check the pregnancy.  It also helps to detect the correct age of the fetus and the problems related to the pregnancy like ectopic pregnancies, miscarriages etc.

Which of the following is true regarding panic disorder in children?
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

A. Children report more cognitive symptoms than adults, is true regarding panic disorders in children.

Explanation:

A. Children report more cognitive symptoms than adults.  

Children with panic disorder are more anxious as compared to adults even when they are not having panic attacks. They report severe cognitive symptoms such as fear of an attack, reluctance to perform well in school, avoiding certain places due to fear of attack called agoraphobia, depression, substance abuse and suicidal behaviors. Hence, children may also need psychotherapy along with panic disorder medications so that they could control their anxiety. Early treatment of panic disorder with cognitive behavioral therapies may prevent complications such as agarophobia, and depression in children.  

B. Children experience only cued panic attacks.  

Both children and adolescents have unexpected panic attacks which might be triggered by anything which causes anxiety in them. They should have varying periods of fear and discomfort which might last minutes to hours.  

C. Children may report a general fear of becoming sick rather than specific physical symptom

A child suffering from panic attacks may have heart-attack like symptoms with a racing heart, fear of death and losing control, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, and physical symptoms including nausea, vomiting, dizziness, shortness of breath etc. Moreover, children are also left with an intense fear of another panic attack which might trigger these symptoms. Thus, they become less functional and has a fear of changing places, habits as anything might trigger their symptoms. So, children are more anxious about the physical symptoms ensuing the panic attack and tries their best to avoid it.
