Multiple myeloma<span> is cancer that forms in your plasma cells and causes cancer cells to accumulate in the bone marrow. Plasma cells are cells which help you fight infections by making antibodies that attack germs. </span>If signs and symptoms develop like bone pain or nausea, a number of treatments can be done to help control your multiple myeloma.
A nurse caring for a client with multiple myeloma is most likely to see his blood count. Complete blood count (CBC), is done to measure the levels of red cells, white cells, and platelets in the blood. If there are too many myeloma cells in the bone marrow, the most common finding is a low red blood cell count.

Answer:
K+
Explanation:
Leak channels are the gated channels that randomly open and close. The plasma membranes have many more potassium ion (K+) leak channels than the leak channels for other ions such as sodium ion. Also, the potassium ion leak channels are leakier than the sodium leak channels and allow exit of more and more K+ from the neurons. This makes the inside the neuron negative at rest and outside becomes more positive. In this way, the leakage of K+ across the K+ leak channels is mainly responsible for maintaining the resting potential.
Answer: Liver
Glucose is the most important fuel source for the body, specifically the brain. It is absorbed through the
mucosal lining into the epithelial cells of the intestine by active transport
via sodium-dependent hexose
transporter. From the epithelial cells, glucose is moved into the surrounding capillaries
by facilitated diffusion into the liver. Once in the liver, glucose is stored as glycogen.
