Thyroid hormones are conceptually very similar to steroid hormones.What does this tell you about the mechanism of action in alte
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Their course of action in altering metabolism is very similar because both of them interact with intracellular receptors (primarily the cytosolic receptors present in cytoplasm of the cell) and translocate into the nucleus for performing their desired goal (likely to synthesize a mRNA which can then be turned into a protein to get a desired action going)

larisa86 [58]

ICD-10-CM (International Classification of Diseases -10th Version-Clinical Modification) is designed for classifying and reporting diseases in all healthcare settings.

What is ICD-10-CM?

  • A system used to categorize and identify all diagnoses, symptoms, and procedures documented in association with hospital care in the United States.
  • ICD-10-CM is used by doctors, coders, health information managers, nurses, and other healthcare professionals to help them save and retrieve diagnostic data, according to WHO.
  • Because they are more specific than ICD-10 codes and might offer additional details regarding the seriousness of a patient's disease, ICD-10-CM codes are significant.

Explain how blood is pumped through the heart in complete sentences
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Blood enters the heart through two large veins, the inferior and superior vena cava, emptying oxygen-poor blood from the body into the right atrium of the heart.

As the atrium contracts, blood flows from your right atrium into your right ventricle through the open tricuspid valve.

When the ventricle is full, the tricuspid valve shuts. This prevents blood from flowing backward into the atria while the ventricle contracts.

• As the ventricle contracts, blood leaves the heart through the pulmonic valve, into the pulmonary artery and to the lungs where it is oxygenated. Note that oxygen-poor or CO2 containing blood goes through the pulmonary artery to the lungs where CO2 is exchanged for O2.

Left side of the heart (operating at the same time as the right side of the heart)

The pulmonary vein empties oxygen-rich blood from the lungs into the left atrium of the heart.

As the atrium contracts, blood flows from your left atrium into your left ventricle through the open mitral valve.

When the ventricle is full, the mitral valve shuts. This prevents blood from flowing backward into the atrium while the ventricle contracts.

As the ventricle contracts, oxygen-enriched blood leaves the heart through the aortic valve, into the aorta and to the arteries and eventually into veins to complete the blood circulation in your body.
