Answer:

The options

A. dyspnea

B. Ataxia

C. cataplexy

D. narcolepsy

Our ANSWER IS D.

D. narcolepsy

Explanation:

It is a chronic sleep disorder which leads to excessive daylight drowsiness.

It may be due to a genetic factor and unusual signal being released in the brain as a result of absence of the brain chemical called hypocretin/orexin, which controls sleep. It is often seen as the effect of the immune system erroneously working against the production of hypocretin in thr brain.

It results in unexpected attacks of sleep, abrupt loss of muscle tone and hallucinations.

alexandr1967 [171]

High levels of cortisol would normally provide negative feedback to the D)the anterior pituitary and the hypothalamus.

ACTH secretion stimulates the discharge of glucocorticoids (cortisol), mineralocorticoids (aldosterone), and androgen from the adrenal cortex.

Corticotropin-liberating hormone (CRH) is launched from the hypothalamus, which stimulates the anterior pituitary to release adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). ACTH then acts on its target organ, the adrenal cortex.

Cortisol increases blood sugar by way of releasing stored glucose, at the same time as insulin lowers blood sugar. Having chronically high cortisol stages can result in continual high blood sugar (hyperglycemia). this can purpose type 2 diabetes.

Over [174]

Lyophilization Methods of microbial control do not rely on protein denaturation and/or disruption of cell membrane integrity

Lyophilization Freeze-drying or freeze-drying is the process of freezing the product and placing it under vacuum, then removing the water from the product, allowing the ice cream to go directly from solid to vapor without going through a liquid phase. Freeze-drying is a water removal process commonly used to preserve perishable materials, extend shelf life, or make materials easier to transport. Freeze-drying is to sublime the frozen water in the material by lowering the pressure and applying heat after freezing the material. Lyophilization converts pharmaceuticals into stable solids by removing water from liquids
