Spleen filter blood, lymph node filter lymph. Hence given statement is FALSE

<u>Explanation: </u>

An organ that is found in all vertebrates is spleen. The shape of spleen is same as that of the structure of a Larger Lymph node. A prime blood filter is spleen.  

A spleen mainly takes off the older red blood cells and it also holds some blood as reserve which is more important in cases like hemorrhagic shock.

In the haemoglobin the globin part is degraded to amino acids. The heme part is converted into bilirubin which in return removed in the liver.

Is it okay for a patient with pneumonia to sing?
babunello [35]

Answer:

Pneumonia requires a tremendous amount of rest while you're recovering. Don't sing; just eat healthy, drink a lot of water, and rest.

Explanation:

Have you seen a doctor about recurrent bouts of pneumonia? Because if you haven't, and you don't already have something like asthma (hell, even if you do), you should look into that because lung infections are nothing to take lightly. I had pneumonia over the winter and it knocked the stuffing out of me; it took two months before I was really feeling well again, and most of another month before I was finally not sleepy all the time anymore. And I didn't even have it as badly as I could have. Take care of yourself!

a client is admitted to the nursing unit after undergoing radical prostatectomy for cancer. the nurse anticipates that which pro
romanna [79]

In the initial postoperative phase, the client would be most worried about the results of the surgery, thus the nurse should anticipate this.

A prostatectomy is a surgical treatment used to remove the prostate whole or partially. Treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia or prostate cancer may involve this procedure.

Making a surgical incision and removing the prostate gland is a standard surgical procedure for prostatectomy (or part of it). The retropubic or suprapubic incision (lower abdomen), or a perineum incision, can be used to achieve this (through the skin between the scrotum and the rectum).

Urologists' most popular surgical method is radical prostatectomy (doctors who specialize in diseases and surgery of the urinary tract). The doctor will also remove the lymph nodes surrounding the prostate gland if there is cause to assume the cancer has spread to those tissues. If cancer is discovered in the lymph nodes, it has spread outside of the prostate gland. In that instance, surgery might not be recommended since the cancer won't be sufficiently treated. Additional therapies could be done in this case.
