Answer and explanation:

1. A fluid of lymph and blood that circulates within invertebrates -- Hemolymph.

Hemolymph is a liquid, analog to blood, that is found in arthropods (invertebrates that have an exoskeleton, like insects and arachnids). Hemolymph has hemocyanin, which are proteins that transport oxygen, much like vertebrates' hemoglobin.

2. Protein cells that assist in fighting infection and disease - interferon.

Interferons are proteins released by host cells in the presence of several viruses. Interferons are a type of cytokine, which are molecules used to trigger the immune response. This way, they assist in fighting infections.

3. Type of leukocyte that makes up the specific immunity system; capable of building immunity to a disease - Lymphocyte.

Lymphocytes are one of the 5 types of leukocytes (white blood cells) present in the body. There are three types of lymphocytes: B (they mature in the bone marrow), T (they mature in the thymus), and NK -natural killers-. Lymphocytes participate in both the cell-mediated and the humoral responses of the immune system.

4. Excretory tubules in insects and spiders that empty into the intestine - Malpighian tubules.

The malpighian tubule system is found in insects, myriapods and arachnids, and is a type of excretory and osmoregulatory system that absorbs water and solutes from the hemolymph.

5. The functioning unit of Kidney that produces urine - Nephron.

The nephron is the functional unit of the kidney, composed of a renal corpuscle (which consists of a tuft of capillaries surrounded by the Bowman's capsule) and a renal tubule. There are over one million nephrons in the kidney. The function of the nephrons is to produce urine through blood filtration.

6. Tubes in flatworm and earthworms that excrete waste - Nephridia.

Nephridia are organs found in the invertebrates that are analog to the kidneys found in the vertebrates. Nephridia remove metabolic wastes from the invertebrates' bodies.

Which common practice puts the nurse at liability for invasion of patient privacy?
harina [27]

Answer;

-The nurse gives information about the patient to telephone callers who inquire about the patient.

Explanation;

-Medical care requires the invasion of privacy. Patients must expose their innermost thoughts, their bodies, and their sickrooms to strangers. But to protect human dignity, health providers should limit invasions to those necessary to accomplish the goals of their patients.

-Invasion of privacy and confidentiality are of critical legal and medical concern. The right to privacy means that a client has the right to expect that his or her property will be left alone. Healthcare individuals may be charged with trespassing, illegal search and seizure, or releasing private information (even if the information is true).

Describe two integumentary system mechanisms that help regulate body temperature.
Basile [38]

Answer:

dilation of vessels and sweating

Explanation:

The vast blood supply of the skin aids in temperature regulation: dilated vessels enable heat to escape, while constricted vessels retain heat. The blood supply of the skin regulates body temperature. The skin aids in the maintenance of homeostasis. Humidity has an effect on thermoregulation because it reduces perspiration evaporation and, as a result, heat loss.

Which structure in this plant cell represents the site of ATP production from photosynthesis?
ankoles [38]

Answer:

Chloroplasts

Explanation:

Chloroplasts are found in cells of leaves and green parts of the stem. They contain green pigment called chlorophyll which makes photosynthetic cells to appear green. They are sites of photosynthesis. Chlorophyll traps light energy from the sun. The energy is used to drive the manufacture of sugars from carbon dioxide and water, a process called photosynthesis.

Compare and discuss how cells store energy and release energy using ATP. Be specific! You may draw the cycle
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Due to process of respiration, ATP is formed and release energy by breaking of ATP.

Explanation:

Cells store energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and also release energy in the form of ATP because ATP has a chemical energy which can be gained by breaking down ATP molecule and use this chemical energy in different cellular processes. Cells produces energy in the form of ATP molecule in the mitochondria of the cell by broken down of glucose in the presence of oxygen in the process of respiration. By breaking of ATP, ADP is formed and the energy present in the bond is used by the cell in different activities.
