Answer:

The options are:

A. Water will not be absorbed

B. The kidney will stop working

C. Carbohydrate will not be digested.

D. No major problem will arise

The answer is D. No major problem will arise

Explanation:

This is an endoscopic procedure done to patients who have blocked food pipe.

The Oesophageal stent is a small metal or plastic tube which is put into the food pipe (oesophagus).

A cancer in the food pipe can partly or completely block and make it difficult to swallow. The solution mostly is to put a stent into the blocked area which opens up the food pipe well for the passage of of food. This also permits individuals to swallow food and drink more easily.

The patient normally stays in the hospital overnight or for a few days during this procedure.

A condition in which inadequate intake of vitamin b12 or folic acid causes production of large abnormal red blood cells is calle
quester [9]
The correct answer is "megaloblastic anemia".

In the event of deficiency of folic acid and/or vitamin B12, there will be inhibition of DNA synthesis in red blood cell precursors as well as other cells in the myeloid lineage. This results to continuous cell growth without cell division leading to large, immature red blood cells (hence the term megaloblastic) with low hemoglobin levels. Vitamin B12 deficiency particularly causes neuropathic symptoms such as neuropathic pain and numbness.

If megaloblastic anemia is caused by the resection of the portion of stomach that produces the intrinsic factor (important in the absorption of vitamin B12), then the condition is called pernicious anemia.

stepan [7]
The fern should be found on the west side of the mountain ranges at higher elevations because the prevailing winds are from the west off the Pacific Ocean so bring moisture in the clouds and as the clouds rise up over the westernmost mountains they cool off and precipitate so in the warm seasons rain would be concentrated in this area and higher up would be cooler.

How are babies made?
Reptile [31]

Answer:

The genetic material in the sperm combines with the genetic material in the egg to create a new cell that starts dividing rapidly. You're not actually pregnant until that bundle of new cells, known as the embryo, travels the rest of the way down the fallopian tube and attaches itself to the wall of your uterus.

1. How does the body adjust to a higher altitude?
Anni [7]

During acclimatization over a few days to weeks, the body produces more red blood cells to counteract the lower oxygen saturation in blood in high altitudes. Full adaptation to high altitude is achieved when the increase of red blood cells reaches a plateau and stops.Heart rate is controlled by the two branches of the autonomic (involuntary) nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS). ... At the beginning of exercise, your body removes the parasympathetic stimulation, which enables the heart rate to gradually increase.

D)all of them
