Answer

The nervous and skeletomuscular systems help maintain homostasis by regulating respiration.

Explanation:

The brain stem, consisting of the pons and medulla, represent the main respiratory center.   According to Wikipedia, "an increased level of carbon dioxide in the blood, or a decreased level of oxygen, will result in a deeper breathing pattern and increased respiratory rate to bring the blood gases back to equilibrium."

This is an example of a homostastic response controlled by both of the organ systems referenced above.

What is a communicable disease chain? what steps can a nurse can take to break a link within the communicable disease chain?
Kaylis [27]
<span>A diseases may be classified as either communicable or non-communicable. Communicable diseases are caused by pathogens who inhabit a host, man (I'm not saying man is the only host or man is necessarily the final host; there could be many host) who in turn passes the disease to another. Pathogens are viral, bacterial, parasitic and fungal. There are several stages before the pathogen metamorphoses into a full-blown disease. The stages in which several events happen builds up before the pathogen affects the final host is called a communicable disease chain. There are six stages ( Pathogen, reservoir, portal of ext, mode of transmission, portal of entry and susceptible host) in the communicable disease chain but the step a nurse shouod take is 1. Destroy the second link (Reservoir) by thoroughly sanitizing the environment. Obviously, this is where the Pathogens live. If the reservoir is taken care of; there's no way they could infect the host.</span>

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

A. 3

B. 4

C. 5

D. 6

E. 2

F. 1

Explanation:

1. Integumentary system.

This is an organ system that consists of hair, skin, nails and exocrine glands with receptors that senses the outer stimulus and environmental conditions, through homeostasis maintain stability of the internal environment.

2. Nervous system.

It receives sensory information and signals, convert them to nerve impulses that are transmitted to the body and brain via the spinal cord using nuerons and axons. It also intergrates, retains and analyses information in the brain.

3.Endocrine system.

Secretes hormones and chemicals in response to stimulus from the nervous system to maintain balance using feedback loops i.e, negative and positive.

4. Lymphatic system.

Part of the immune system that consist of vessels that carries lymph, cleaning the blood by filtering lymph with foreign particles into the lymph node.

5. Urinary system.

Used to eliminate waste from the body, regulates blood pressure, volume and pH. It also used to retain electrolytes and metabolites.

6. Respiratory system.

Used for gaseous exchange using the blood, heart and lungs. Air enters the lungs, transported by blood and is pumped by the heart to all body parts where oxygen is dropped, carbon dioxide is collected by the veins to the lungs and released to the atmosphere.
