Answer: b. 0.75  mL

Explanation:

The physician ordered FRAGMIN 7,500 units and the vials come with FRAGMIN 10,000 international units/mL. This means that for every 1 mL, there are FRAGMIN 10,000 units.

For FRAGMIN 7,500 units therefore the mL will be;

= 7,500/10,000

= 0.75 mL

Answer:

The best answer to your question: Which type of neuroglia would play a role in controlling glutamate levels in the chemical environment, would be: Astrocytes.

Explanation:

From among the neuroglia, or support cells in the brain, whose purpose is to aid neurons in their different functions, astrocytes are not just one of the most numerous, but also one of the most vital for neuronal support. Amongst one of their most central functions is to help in the control of neurotransmitter emition and retention in the synaptic cleft, between two communicating neurons, and therefore, helps regulate the responses from post-synaptic, and pre-synaptic neurons. It is also responsible for clearing up the presence of ions in the extracellular space, and producing ATP, which regulates the amount of neurotransmitters that are released, and taken, by pre-synaptic, and post-synaptic neurons.

In ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) the issue with glutamate, a neurotransmitter that excites post-synaptic neurons into releasing excess amounts of calcium, is that this hyper-excitatory response leads neurons, particularly motor neurons, to die, and this is what causes ALS. It has been found through research that astrocytes have to do in this process, but it is not clear yet whether there is a failure in their control system, as ALS is still a condition that is very much under study and still without a cure.

fredd [130]

While leading a nutrition class, the nurse is discussing the role that some nutrients play in regulating chemical substances in the body. The nurse correctly explains that Iodine is the nutrient that is essential for effective thermoregulation.

What is thermoregulation?

Mammals control their internal temperature in a precise manner, independently of the outside environment, using a process known as thermoregulation. It is necessary to maintain a constant internal temperature in order to survive, and temperature regulation is a sort of homeostasis.

What controls thermoregulation in the body?

The hypothalamus controls your body temperature in a manner similar to how a thermostat controls the temperature in your home. It does this by responding to both internal and external stimuli and making adjustments to keep your body's temperature within one or two degrees of 98.6 degrees.
