True or false: only a very small percentage of health care providers hold biased attitudes toward individuals who are obese.

False. If you search in Google Scholar or some other database using these keywords, you will see countless empirical, peer-reviewed research studies showing how healthcare providers are significantly influenced by their implicit biases regarding obese patients, leading to healthcare disparities.

Implicit bias refers to our unconscious decisions and perceptions of people, and if you want to learn more about it, I highly suggest you visit Harvard's Project Implicit online.

While implicit bias is pervasive, there still are some healthcare workers who are more explicitly biased towards their obese patients. This is also a serious problem.

Each P1 parent of a monohybrid cross has completely identical genes<br> ture<br> false
lawyer [7]

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

Monohybrid cross may be defined as the cross done by taking the single character at the time. The monohybrid cross explains the concept of dominance and law of segregation.

The P1 parent of monohybrid cross doesnot have completely identical genes. This can be explained by the cross shown below:

Parent         Tt           ×       tt

Gamete         T  t           ×     t

Here, the parents are not identical.  

Thus, the answer is falsi.

How do the nervous system and endocrine system differ in regards to managing homeostasis?
Citrus2011 [14]
Hello friend!!
The biggest difference between the two is that the nervous system uses electrical impulses to send signals through neurons, whereas the hormonal system uses chemical messengers transported into blood plasma to target cells. 
Transmission by the nervous system is short-lived but quick, whereas transmission by the hormonal system is long-lasting but takes much longer. Hene, communication is faster when using the nervous system. 
In the nervous system, responses are localised - whereas in the hormonal system, they are widespread. Responses are often permanent in the hormonal system, but temporary and reversible in the nervous system.
