Answer:

The Cerebellum is the area of the brain that is also accountable for balance, coordination and vocal expression, among other things, such as receiving signals from the main parts of the central nervous system, such as the spinal cord.

Injury to this section of the brain may be responsible for the difficulty of Kristis to maintain her equilibrium.

Magnetic resonance (MRI) imaging:

Magnetic resonance imaging ( MRI) is one of the instruments or diagnostic equipment used in disease identification, diagnosis and treatment assessment. It features the use of non-invasive technologies in the development of 3d format clear photographs of internal organs such as the brain.

 

Neuroplasticity

This is one of the functions of the neural system of the brain. It has the ability to turn or modify its skills and functions by creating and reorganizing nerve cells in order to compensate for the effects of injuries or diseases.

Children are known to have more Neuroplasticity abilities than adults. If Kristi is still very young, chances are that she will recover with moderate or no treatments at all.

Cheers.

Along with removing drugs from the body, the kidneys also __________.
Andru [333]

Answer:

D. A and B

Explanation:

The kidneys balance the pH by removing dietary acids from the blood thus making it more alkaline. If the urine is more acidic that means that the kidneys have regulated the reabsorption of carbonic acid in the tubule.

The kidneys produce a hormone called aldosterone that helps the body regulate blood pressure. Since they filter blood from the arteries damaging the said arteries will lead to kidney damage so to stay intact the kidneys help regulate the blood pressure that damages the arteries

If students gossip about teachers, is that also ethically wrong? why or why not ?
AlekseyPX

Shayshay12317,

It is indeed "wrong." Why? It is because if students gossip about the teachers, the teacher would be less likely to help that student pass their class. For example, imagine if Micheal was gossiping about how the teacher walks and the teacher found out Micheal said those things. So, when Micheal needs extra credit the teacher would be less likely to give him less credit because he said those things.

Hope this helps!
