IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is  a. absent spinal reflexes below the level of injury.

Explanation:

Spinal shock strictly refers to the neurological condition that occurs immediately after a spinal cord injury, in which the loss of not only motor and sensory functions occurs, but also the abolition of all reflexes below the injury (reflexes of muscular or myotatic stretching and cutaneous reflexes). There is also flaccidity, loss of reflexes. It is characterized by hypotension associated with cervical or upper thoracic spinal injuries. This characteristic shock results from the lesion of the descending sympathetic pathway in the spinal cord, producing a loss of vasomotor tone and sympathetic innervation of the heart. This causes vasodilation of the affected area with accumulation of blood and a decrease in venous return to the heart as well as cardiac output.

almond37 [142]

Answer:

In order from top to bottom

C

A

E

D

B

Explanation:

1) Reflection is when a ray hits something reflective then bounces back. For example, light reflects off a mirror, which is why you can see yourself in a mirror.

2) Wavelength measures the size of a wave. It is measured from the crest or trough of one wave to the crest or trough of another.

3) Refraction occurs when waves go through different mediums at different speeds. This is why a straw looks bent when in water.

4) Frequency is a way of measuring the speed of a wave. It shows how many waves pass every unit of time.

5) Absorption means that all of the waves were absorbed into the medium and none of them passed through.
