Answer:

b) "Your doctor can prescribe medications necessary to relieve pain; however; this treatment will not hasten death."

Explanation:

When the terminally ill patient or the patient's legal proxy requests palliative sedation, the use of pharmacologic agents to induce sedation or near sedation when symptoms have not responded to other management measures), the purpose is not to hasten the patient's death but to relieve intractable symptoms. Palliative sedation may be controversial, but it is not illegal. Total sedation is rarely indicated in hospice care to provide comfort. Continuous pain assessments are not indicated at this stage; the patient requires intervention/treatment.

Chronic illness it is a permanent change ? True/false
fredd [130]

Hello Anwar, thank you for asking a question here on Brainly!

YOU ASKED ➤ True or False: Is chronic illness a permanent change?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ANSWER ➤ False

Explanation: The question is vague on what kind of change a chronic illness can bring, but for the most part, chronic illnesses are not permanent changes because the illness can always change over time. When you get diagnosed with a chronic condition it may develop over time by being chronic and then terminal. More treatment over time has prevented chronic illnesses from being permanent change such as diabetes.

I hope this answer is helpful to you, but please let me know if you have any other questions regarding it.

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

  1. The complete DNA instruction book, or genome, for a human contains about 3 billion bases and about 20,000 genes on 23 pairs of chromosomes
  2. Because carbon atoms can form stable bonds with four other atoms, they are uniquely suited for the construction of complex molecules. These complex molecules are typically made up of chains and rings that contain hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen atoms, as well as carbon atoms.
  3. In the nucleus of each cell, the DNA molecule is packaged into thread-like structures called chromosomes. Each chromosome is made up of DNA tightly coiled many times around proteins called histones that support its structure.
  4. The gene is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity. It consists of a specific sequence of nucleotides at a given position on a given chromosome that codes for a specific protein (or, in some cases, an RNA molecule).
