Alexxx [7]

Answer:

A) Feelings of invincibility

Explanation:

Adolescence refers to the period of human growth that occurs

between childhood and adulthood. Adolescence begins at around age

10 and ends around age 21. Adolescence can be broken into three

stages: early adolescence, middle adolescence, and late

adolescence. Each stage has its own characteristics. Let's take a

look at each stage in more detail below.

Middle adolescence is the second stage and occurs from ages 15 to

17. By this time, puberty has passed. Teens in this stage are

extremely concerned with how they look, and they think others are

concerned, too. They spend a large amount of time grooming,

exercising, and modifying their physical appearance.

Girls are especially preoccupied with their physical appearance and

being sexually attractive.

Relationships are often changing during middle adolescence. There

is also worry about sexual attractiveness. Middle adolescents

complain about their parents preventing them from becoming

independent, and they withdraw from them. They may try to assert

their independence by refusing to bathe, not cleaning their rooms,

and picking up annoying habits. There is an intense focus on peer

groups during middle adolescence, and teens in this stage tend to

confide in each other more than they do their parents.

As with early adolescence, teens in middle adolescence may feel

invincible. Risk-taking behaviors are significantly increased during

this stage. On the other hand, acting-out behaviors begin to

decrease, since teens in this stage have a better grasp on how to

use words as a means of expression.

Answer:

The perception of pain throughout the body arises when neural signals originating from the terminals of nociceptors are propagated to second-order neurons in the spinal cord or brainstem, whereupon they are transmitted to specific higher-order brain areas (Price, 2000). Recent studies have begun to elucidate some of the molecular mechanisms underlying the transduction of noxious stimuli. Many stimuli have been found to activate ion channels present on nociceptor terminals that act as molecular transducers to depolarize these neurons, thereby setting off nociceptive impulses along the pain pathways (Price, 2000; Costigan and Woolf, 2000). Among these ion channels are the members of the transient receptor potential (TRP) family. To date, the most studied member of the TRP family is the TRPV1 receptor. This is because it is the only one activated by capsaicin, the compound in chili pepper responsible for its “hot” taste; also, inhibiting TRPV1 has been shown to have therapeutic value (DiMarzo et al., 2002; Cortright and Szallasi, 2004). Although we will focus on the presence of these channels in nociceptors, we note that they have been identified in many other cell types and in various cortical and subcortical areas (Toth et al., 2005). The transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) channel is predicted to have six transmembrane domains and a short, pore-forming hydrophobic stretch between the fifth and sixth transmembrane domains (see Figure 5.1A). It is activated not only by the vanilloid capsaicin (Caterina et al., 1997), but also by noxious heat (>43°C) and low pH (Caterina et al., 1997; Tominaga et al., 1998), voltage (Gunthorpe et al., 2000; Piper et al., 1999), and various lipids (Julius and Basbaum, 2001; Caterina and Julius, 2001; Clapham, 2003; Cortright and Szallasi, 2004, Szallasi and Blumberg, 1999; Prescott and Julius, 2003; Jung et al., 2004; Bhave et al., 2003). In cells, TRPV1 is inactivated by its binding to PIP2 and is released from this block by PLC-mediated PIP2 hydrolysis (Prescott and Julius, 2003). TRPV1 is widely expressed in central nervous system (CNS) tissue and highly expressed in sensory neurons of the dorsal root ganglion [19]. This receptor also localizes to neurons that line the oral and nasal cavities [10], where it is found in a subpopulation of sensory afferent nociceptive nerve fibers [20].

During a phase change, mass

AURORKA [14]

Stays the same, within a closed system.

Your teacher has probably used this example before. When you heat water in a pot on the stove, as it starts to boil, the water evaporates and turns into steam.
If you have two pots that are both heating on the stove, filled to the same water level; one is covered with an air-tight lid, and the other is left open.The water level in the open pot will be lower, because more steam was able to escape during a gaseous phase.
