The parasympathetic nervous system <span>conserves energy as it slows down heart rate, increases intestinal and glandular activity, and relaxes the sphincter muscles of the gastrointestinal tract. It gets the nickname "rest and digest" for doing exactly so. Typically most active when sleeping, however is also the explanation for post-prandial fatigue, or being tired after eating (especially a large meal).</span>

Natalija [7]

Answer:

A nurse observes a few small, yellow nodules on the cervix of a client during the speculum exam. They are not painful or odorous, and a thin, clear discharge is present. The nurse recognizes that these are most indicative of nabothian cysts.

Explanation:

Nabothian cysts or nabothian follicles are also called mucinous retention cysts or epithelial cysts. It is a mucus-filled cyst on the surface of the cervix. Many women have multiple cysts they are common, benign and considered a normal feature of the adult cervix. They may be translucent or opaque, whitish to yellow, and range from a few millimeters to 3 to 4 cm in diameter. They are most often caused when stratified squamous epithelium of the ectocervix  which is the nearest portion to the vagina that grows over the simple columnar epithelium of the endocervix  which is the nearest portion to the uterus.

There are no serious complications or threat to your health with nabothian cysts.

Suppose Gene 1 produces a protein involved in the development of the eye. In the simulation, what are two ways that you can prev
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer and Explanation:

A gene is a section of DNA. The change in the sequence of the DNA is known as mutation.  Mutation always changes the sequence of the DNA. Sunlight can cause mutation. Sunlight produces structures named thymine dimers. Thymine dimers produce twist in the shape of DNA. These twists make DNA hard to copy, which can lead to mutation. It is essential to use sunscreen to block UVA and UVB rays to prevent thymine dimers from emerging in our cells. The US Food and Drug Agency recommends an SPF (sun protection factor) to defend against skin aging and skin cancer. X-ray radiation is a form used in x-rays. The energy level of the X-ray radiation is very high that can produce free radicals. Free radicals can steal electrons from DNA that can cause mutation. By using medical images, we can decrease exposure to X-rays. Less exposure to X-rays prevents mutation and also prevents the production of gene protein in other body parts.
