Wittaler [7]

Answer: 1- Maintenance of oncotic pressure: prot. are macromolecules that hydrate in the plasma and exert a PO retaining water in the vascular medium, all prot. mainly albumin

2- Buffer role: all prot. Plasma acts as a buffer because of their hydrophobic character thus participating in the regulation of acid-base balance

3- Transport function Albumin.Tyroxine binding protein (TBP), transferrin, apoproteins..etc.

4- Enzymes and coenzymes: renin, orosomucoid (coenzymes of LPL)

5- Role in coagulation and fibrinolysis: fibrinogen, thrombin. antithrombin

6- Role in immunity: Ig (lgA JgG.lgM) and complement proteins

7- Role in the allergic: IgE and complement fractions

8- Role in inflammation: α1 antitrypsin, orosomucoides .cerulioplasmin, cytokines, CRP

9- Hormonal role: insulin, glucagon, pituitary stimulins (TSH, FSH, LH)

10- And finally a structural role (such as actin or tubulin that participate in the architecture of the cell, the keratin that makes

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Flight-or-flight response is a response or physiological reaction towards external stimuli. Systematic desensitization is a methodology to control anxiety during speech. Hence, these two are not relaxation techniques. Transforming novelty into familiarity is also a methodology to remain prepared during a speech by practicing it well. Visualization is a technique that helps our mind to relax by using imagination to reach a relaxed state of mind.

An individual has an infection with an acid-fast organism. From a clinical standpoint, how

melamori03 [73]

Acid-fast bacteria or acid-fast bacilli can be defined as the group of bacteria that have the ability to resist their decolonization by the acids which are used during the staining process.

An infection that is caused due to an acid-fast organism indicates that the individual is suffering from Tuberculosis or other myobacterial diseases.

An acid-fast bacteria has many protective and invasive techniques which makes the infection difficult to treat, and thus, long-term course of antibiotics is needed for the treatment of such infections.
