The nurse should teach the patient to, "apply a warm compress to the lesions". 

Herpes is a sexually transmitted disease, which has almost no symptoms most of the time. Herpes produces blisters around the infected area, and these blisters may burst to leave painful sores. This is referred to as an outbreak. When managing herpes, it is beneficial to address the blisters and lesions using a warm compress.

Instructions of applying a warm compress to the lesions should the nurse include in the teaching. The client should wear loose, cotton underwear to promote cleanliness and dryness in the genital area. Sitz baths can promote cleanliness and reduction inflammation in the area. A hair dryer, set on a cool setting can be used to carefully dry the lesions in the perineal area. Drinking plenty of fluids is advised to decrease dysuria which accompanies genital herpes. Education for this client should include an explanation of Importance of informing his partners of the disease. Clients with genital herpes must notify their partners of the disease to help avoid transmission. Petroleum products must be avoided because they can cause the virus to spread. The idea that genital herpes is only infectious when visible lesions are existing is false. Anyone not in a long standing, committed relationship, irrespective of present health position must follow safer-sex performs.

You have been growing some animal cells in a test tube. The cells grow for several days, then do not appear to grow as well. You
svetlana [45]

Answer:

D. There is no enough oxygen in the culture fluid

Explanation:

The cells in the test tube need to carryout one of the important metabolic processes of living organisms - respiration. The process involves the breakdown of glucose to generate energy for other metabolic processes in the cell.

Respiration can be carried out in the presence of oxygen (aerobic) or in the absence of oxygen (anaerobic). Human cells are primarily aerobic but can carryout respiration anaerobically in the presence of inadequate oxygen.

For aerobic respiration, glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce carbon-dioxide, water and energy in the form of ATP:

C_6H_1_2O_6 + 6O_2 --> 6CO_2 + 6H_2O + ATP

<em>In the absence of oxygen, the glucose becomes converted to lactic acid and a smaller amount of ATP is produced as compared to aerobic respiration.</em>

<em>Hence, lactic acid gradually builds up in the absence of oxygen due to anaerobic respiration.</em>

The correct option is D.

Hypersecretion of prolactin from the anterior pituitary gland causes the condition of ________. dwarfism postpartum hemorrhage g
kolbaska11 [484]

Hypersecretion of the population from the anterior pituitary gland causes the condition of galactorrhea.

Prolactin is another name is called luteotropin and its main function is to enable mammals mostly female to produce milk. The pituitary gland secretes it in response to mating, estrogen treatment, ovulation, nursing and eating.

The pituitary gland is attached to the hypothalamus by a short stalk. The pituitary gland has two major parts.

(i)                  An anterior lobe

(ii)                Posterior lobe.

The pituitary gland is controlled by hormones and neurons that comes in the hypothalamus where it acts as a link between brain and endocrine system, and hypothalamus is the endocrine gland itself. Hypothalamus has neurons which regulate secretion of anterior lobe hormones by secreting inhibit and releasing  hormones. Every hormone produced by anterior lobe has a releasing hormone.

Prolactin and growth hormones have inhibiting hormone. Releasing hormone helps in stimulating production and it releases hormones from the anterior lobe.
