Answer:

"Those are senile lentigines and are common in older adults."

Explanation:

Senile lentigines are small darker areas of the skin (hyperpigmentation) that affect the face, hands, forearms, and other areas often exposed to the sun. They are more common in people over 40, but in some rare cases may occur earlier.

The correct term for senile lentigines is solar melanoses, which are dark brown to brown spots, usually small but can reach a few centimeters in size. They only appear in areas that are very exposed to the sun, such as the face, the back of the hands and arms, the lap and the shoulders. They are more common in fair-skinned and elderly people.

Lipids that are consumed in the diet are absorbed into the intestinal mucosal cells where most of the molecules are packaged for
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

The only lipids that are not packaged for transport because they ARE soluble in water are small fatty acids.

Explanation:

Small fatty acids, like acetate, have less than 6 carbons on their chains and are produced by bacterial fermentation. These lipids are absorbed by the intestinal mucosa unionized, and are a major nutrient source.

Small fatty acids play an important role in homeostasis as they have shown to modulate the development and function of leukocytes.

Whole grains, and also potatoes, pasta and cornmeal, are foods that are used by good bacteria to produce these lipids.

Dr. Ramirez studies the effects of stress on pregnant mothers and how this stress may influence gender expression in their child
slavikrds [6]

Answer: Biological factors or influences such as genetic, biochemical factors on the gender.

Explanation: By way of definition,

the biopsychosocial model is a combined scientific model that looks at the interconnection between biology, psychology, and socio-environmental factors. The model specifically monitors how these aspects play a role in topics ranging from health and disease models to human development. This model was developed by George L. Engel in 1977. Though the biopsychosocial Model has received criticism about its limitations, but it continues to carry waves in the fields of psychology, health, medicine, and human development.

The biopsychosocial model explains the development of illness through the complex interaction of biological factors (genetic, biochemical, etc.), psychological factors (mood, personality, behavior, etc.) and social factors (cultural, familial, socioeconomic, medical etc.)

Engel clearly explained that the biomedical approach is flawed because the body alone does not contribute to illness. Instead, the individual mind (psychosocial model) plays a significant role in how an illness is caused and how it is treated. Engel suggested, a dialogue between the patient and the doctor in order to find the most effective treatment solution.

Engel felt the biopsychosocial model also allows physicians to better understand their patients' subjective view of their illness and suffering.

So from the question asked, Dr Ramirez idea of following the Psychosocial approach, will help him to understand his studies on the effects of stress on pregnant mothers and how this stress may influence gender expression in their children.
