Answer:

2. I should report an increase in sputum

4. I will get a pneumococcal vaccine

5. I will use albuterol if I am short of breath

Explanation:

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a term used to describe progressive lung diseases (including chronic bronchitis, emphysema, and severe forms of asthma. People who suffer from COPD usually experience an increased production of sputum (mucus) and shortness of breath. They make use of inhalers/ bronchodilators  to assist with their breathing.

Albuterol (a medication) is one such bronchodilator, which is used to open the airways and ease the breathing.

Getting pneumococcal vaccines will be beneficial to the patient, because it will reduce the risk of them contracting community acquired pneumonia.

If the patient uses these statements, it indicates that they have an appropriate understanding of the condition.

It oxidies iron and inorganic sulfur compounds. The oxidation process can be harmful, as it produces sulfuric acid, which is a major pollutant. It has been suggested that T. ferrooxidans forms a symbiotic relationship with members of the genus Acidiphilium, a bacterial capable of iron reduction. Other species of Thiobacillus grow in water and sediment; there are both freshwater and marine strains.

The bacteria are usually found in rivers, canals, mine drainage effluents and mining areas. So there may be some source of these bacilli near their house.They require inorganic sources to grow and contain an enzyme called ferrous oxidase that allows them to metabolize iron.

Select all of the true statements regarding non‑shivering thermogenesis.
lora16 [44]

Answer:

a, b, d y e

Explanation:

We can define thermogenesis as the method of production of lime or temperature that a living body generates, in biology it is studied that this does not occur in all animals, but is seen in so-called warm blood and some plants, there are three types of processes identified in animals:

NEAT: defined as thermogenesis that occurs without the presence of physical activity

DIT: defined as the thermogenesis that occurs with physical activity

EAT: defined as the thermogenesis that occurs with the consumption of food or diet

Thermogenesis under the thermogenin protein found in brown adipose tissue produces a disengagement of protons within the mitochondria, prevents ATP synthesis and is capable of inducing temperature with the flow of protons, it also intervenes by increasing glycolysis, lipogenesis and gluconeogenesis with which its final result in these processes is the production of energy. The effect of the sympathetic nervous system and thyroid hormones that can balance heat production without generating abnormal movements such as tremor is also recognized.

Thus we deduce that:

electron transport allows heat flow without causing tremors

Thermogenin is involved in allowing protons to enter the mitochondria and the ATP production process is carried out.

hydrolysis of fatty acids occurs in the presence of norepinephrine

in brown adipocytes ATP synthase can be avoided

What happens if the pressure in an angler fish habitat decreases
patriot [66]
If you are referring to selection pressure, when the selection pressure decreases, there will be weaker forces of natural selection. The angler fishes without the favourable traits would not be that strongly selected against and vice versa. In some cases such as predation selection pressure, the population of angler fishes in the habitat may increase
