Answer: Checking for genital lesions and symptoms of recurring herpes.
Explanation: Genital herpes can be passed on from a mother to her newborn through vertical transmission. This is usually due to the newborn's exposure to virus shed from lesions as it passes through the birth canal.
An effective plan, therefore is to ensure that there are no lesions on the mother’s genitals. Presence of lesions can inform the decision to deliver the baby through cesarean section. Also in recurring cases of herpes simplex virus, medication such as valacyclovir can be administered in the third trimester, starting from 36 weeks.
Answer:
(A) - The volume of the blood plasma increases on overhydration and decreaes on dehydration.
(B) - Osmolality of blood increases with the dehydration and decreases with the overhydration.
Explanation:
If the levels of drinking water is increased, then the plasma becomes more dilute and the plasma volume increases because <u>the water will be reabsorbed more and which as a result reduces plasma concentration of the solutes and increases volume of plasma.</u>
Plasma osmolality measures electrolyte-water balance of the body. <u>As mentioned, above on overhydration, the plasma concentration of the solutes decraeses which also decreases osmolality. So, Osmolality of blood increases with the dehydration and decreases with the overhydration. </u>Increased osmolality in blood stimulate the secretion of antidiuretic hormone which results in the increased water reabsorption and therefore, more concentrated urine and hence blood plasma with less concentration.
Answer:
Out of the four given statements, the false statement is
option d)
Explanation:
a) Muscle mass and hence water content is greater in males than in females
b) Transcellular fluid is the portion of total water content in the body which is contained within the lined spaces of epithelial tissue. It is a part of the extracellular fluid which includes plasma and lymph can also be considered as tanscellular fluid.
c) Na+ and Cl- are the major content of extracellular fluids
d) About 60% of water inside the body is contained within extracellular and not in intra cellular.
