The nurse should arrange an immediate home visit with the visiting nurse service and the social worker.

Carrying for the person with dementia is not that simple, it’s even challenging and stressful. Frustration and stress may negatively impact on the health of the client. So, caregiver must be someone calm and stable. Because of that, a person with moderate intellectual disability might not be the most appropriate for this duty.

Cystic fibrosis is genetic, meaning it can be passed from parent to child. What type of mutation causes cystic fibrosis? somatic
Tresset [83]

Answer: Germline mutation

A germline mutation is a mutation in the fully developed germ cells (sperm and ovum). These defective mutated cells fuse to form zygote. The zygote rapidly produces all somatic and germline cells in the offsprings which are also mutated. Therefore, mutation is transmitted from parents to offsprings. Cystic fibrosis is a result of germline mutation. This disease is hereditary in nature passes from parents to the offsprings. If a child receives CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) mutated gene from both the parents than the child will be affected by the symptoms of this disease. If the child receives a single copy of CFTR gene from either of the parent than the child will be the carrier of disease.The mutated gene may be present in the germline cells of the parent or on all the body cells.

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

A <u><em>receptor</em></u> is a protein that recognizes and responds to a signal.

Explanation:

A receptor is a protein molecule present on the cells on which the signalling molecules can bind and generate a physiological response. Some receptor molecules can also respond to Sun and light. Each type of cell has specific receptors molecules and hence can respond to specific signals. The receptor molecules hence tend to receive signals for a cell. Molecules such as hormones bind to the receptors.

What's average temperature for a city fir a year
victus00 [196]

Answer:  

Average annual temperature in US cities would range between 50-70 degrees Fahrenheit  

Explanation:  

There are several factors that can influence the temperature of city in general. Higher altitude has a lower temperature because it has less air density and absorbs less sunlight. The city latitude coordinate also determines how much sunlight they will get. The closer the city to the equator, the more sunlight they can get.

Distance to the sea will influence the rate of rainfall and also influence temperature. Ocean currents can move hot water from other regions too.
