Answer:

c. collagen is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Collagen is the main protein found in connective tissue and skins and it makes different body parts(skin, tendons, muscles, and ligaments)

Collagen function is to give strength to bones and structure to the skin.

Vitamin C is an essential part of a healthy diet and a good source of vitamin C are citrus fruits and green vegetables.

Vitamin C directs the synthesis of a structural protein called collagen.

The function of Vitamin C in the production of collagen is to combine with the amino acids(glycine, proline, hydroxyproline)in collagen cells.

Vitamin C stabilizes the collagen messenger RNA and increase the synthesis of collagen.

When there is a deficiency of vitamin C it leads to anemia, skin problems, gum diseases, and weakness.

Do you think that the federal mandate of having all health care provider and organizations to incorporate an Electronic Health R
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

The answer is no

Explanation:

The federal mandate for health care providers to incorporate electronic health record by 2014 was not realistic because though EHR ( electronic health records) has been in use prior to the deadline, some doctors and health care providers did not adapt this method of keeping records. According to healthcare IT news on the 18th of September 2015, more than 80% of doctors use EHR but this is almost two years after the deadline was given.

As a health care manager, some of the concerns I might have implementing the EHR are

1) Financial issues;- Installing and maintenance costs will have an effect on the overall budget of the health center.

2) Loss of revenue and productivity ;- At the initial stage of using an EHR, there will be loss of productivity being that it's a new system and it will take some time getting used to it. A reduction in productivity will result in a reduction in revenue

3) Privacy violations of the patients;- In the process of exchanging health information electronically, patient records are vulnerable to hacks from intruders.
