The correct answer is: "integrity vs despair"

The question is refered to Erickson's steps of psychosocial development. This theory appoints that each stage in life poses a challenge. Two opposing forces act over the person, who has to be able to resolve the trade-off, by adopting the positive force (integrity, in this case) and discarding the negative one (despair), in order to sucessfully advance in the development of his/her psychosocial personality. The sucessful fulfilment of one step enables to reach the next step.  

This period in a person's life, after 65 years old, means the beginning of the last stage of psychosocial development in which the person, for the first time, experiences a sense of mortality. Reaching integrity means accepting oneshelf and living in peace the way towards death, which is felt with proximity at this point in life.

Leokris [45]

A patient's doctor suspects pernicious anemia because of the patient's macrocytic anemia. A conclusive diagnosis of pernicious anemia would be made with a test for intrinsic factor antibodies.

<h3>What are intrinsic factor antibodies?</h3>

Immune system-produced proteins called intrinsic factor antibodies are linked to pernicious anemia. This test finds circulating intrinsic factor antibodies (IF antibodies) in blood. Known as parietal cells, these specialized cells line the stomach wall and generate a protein known as the intrinsic factor.

<h3>Define macrocytic anemia.</h3>

When your bone marrow creates excessively large red blood cells, it causes the blood condition known as macrocytic anemia. Red blood cells cannot operate normally without the nutrients that these aberrant blood cells lack. Although macrocytic anemia is not a dangerous sickness, it can have serious health consequences if untreated.

What does calcareous ooze become when it dries out? What does siliceous ooze become when it dries out?
zaharov [31]

siliceous

Deep seafloor deposition in the form of ooze is the largest long-term sink of the oceanic silica cycle (6.3 ± 3.6 Tmol Si year−1). As noted above, this ooze is diagenetically transformed into lithospheric marine chert.

calcareous

Calcareous ooze is a calcium carbonate mud formed from the hard parts (tests) of the bodies of free-floating organisms. Once this mud has been deposited, it can be converted into stone by processes of compaction, cementation, and recrystallization. ... Foraminifera are also single-celled organisms.

Why is North Africa subject to foreign invasions?
levacccp [35]

North Africa is subject to foreign invasions because its location on the Mediterranean Sea provides ports and access to other waterways.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

The geographical orientation of the continent of Africa has allowed it to form the Mediterranean Sea with the major European peninsulas on the other end of the sea.

This attribute of a neighbourhood with the important European countries and access to the Atlantic Ocean through the Strait of Gibraltar made North Africa an attractive region in the contemporary world geopolitics.
