Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

Galactosemia is an inherited metabolic disorder caused by changes,  or mutations, in both copies of an individual’s GALT gene. In the majority of cases,  children with galactosemia do not have parents with galactosemia. Mother and father separately are a silent carrier of the condition, which is expressed in the child (autosomal recessive inheritance).

Each individual has two copies of the GALT gene – one from father and one from mother. In case of any changes of these genes (mutations) that prevents the gene from working correctly. In order to inherit galactosemia, it is necessary for a child to have two GALT gene changes. In case of one GALT gene change there is no galactosemia.

Infants with galactosemia may be identified through newborn screening programs or by symptoms that present during the first few weeks of life. Untreated infants develop liver and kidney disease, cataracts in their eyes, and serious infections.

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

In the given case, it is clear that the sympathetic part of the autonomic nervous system is on in Mr. T. It can be suggested due to the increase in heart rate and appearance of cold and pale skin in the patient's upper body. The sympathetic nervous system is the component of the ANS, which is an extensive network of neurons that monitor's the involuntary processes of the body.  

Mainly, the sympathetic nervous system monitors the features of the body associated with the fight or flight response like increasing heart rate, mobilizing fat reserves, and discharging adrenaline. Apart from this, the increased heart rate and vasoconstriction will assist in elevating the patient's blood pressure.
