which of the following steps is an important part of the process by which energy guides human to a sustainable future A) behavio
Tom [10]
Let's think of it like this.  We have an energy crisis, but how can we solve it?  There are three steps.  First, we need to recognize that we HAVE a problem that needs to be fixed.  Then, we need to determine what's causing the problem.  Finally, we need to change how we act in order to solve the problem.  Now, let's look at the options.

Is A correct, leaving our behavior unchanged?  NO: if we know the cause of the problem, we still need to solve it!  What about B: the problems are ignored?  NO: you can't solve a problem unless you know it's a problem.  C?  NO: to solve a problem, you need to find out what's causing it.  Finally, let's look at D: behavior is changed after cause is identified.  This is correct: not only do we know why it's happening, but we're fixing it!

Why is the sympathetic division of the ans called the "fight or flight" system?
Assoli18 [71]
The fight or flight system is a reaction that the body undergoes when put in an either stressful or frightening situation. It includes both the nervous and endocrine system. 

The sympathetic division of the peripheral nervous system is used in this response as the sympathetic nervous system works up the body, increases the rate of breathing, heart rate, dilates the pupils, produce more sweat and slow the digestion rate. This reaction happens in the flight or fight system.

A 14-year-old girl sprained her ankle. She rates her pain 5/10. On examination, she has moderate tenderness and swelling with de
pochemuha

Answer:

Grade II

Explanation:

  • When there is either a partial or complete tearing on ligaments that are responsible for supporting the joint of the ankle then it causes an ankle sprain.
  • Based on the exam findings as well as the loss in functionality of the ankle, an ankle sprain can be categorized as grade I, II or III.
  • In the given situation the 14-year-old girl has a grade II ankle sprain which is characterized by an incomplete tear of the ligaments along with moderate pain (as she rates it 5/10), moderate tenderness, loss of range of some functions, and swelling.
  • All of the characteristics of the sprain resemble those of the grade II ankle sprain tear and hence, it is characterized as a grade II ankle sprain.
