Answer:

Statements that are true are:

Arthritis and Alzheimer's are degenerative diseases (1).

Sunburn is a disease due to physical or environmental agents (4).

Explanation:

1. <u>Arthritis </u>is a degenerative joint process produced by inflammatory processes of various causes. It can be rheumatoid arthritis, produced by autoimmune disease or infectious arthritis due to the action of bacteria in the joint. The consequence of arthritis is osteoarthritis, or degeneration of joint cartilage.

The <u>Alzhaimer's disease</u> is a degenerative process of the nervous tissue, of uncertain cause, and characterized to affect the superior cerebral functions, mainly memory and personality.

4. <u>Sunburns</u> on the skin are produced by the action of the sun's rays, a physical agent related to the environment. The severity of sunburn will depend on the type of skin and the time of exposure to the sun's rays without protection for the skin.

The other options are not correct because:

<em>     2. Lymphomas are a variety of neoplasia that manifests itself in organs and lymphatic structures, and is not considered a contagious disease.</em>

<em>     3. </em><u><em>Arteriosclerosis </em></u><em>is an acquired disease, depending on lifestyle and risk factors, so it is not considered a congenital disease.</em>

Yanka [14]

Answer:

Diuretics will remove water from the blood and eliminate it in the urine. Consequently, water will move from the peritoneal cavity into the bloodstream reducing her ascites.

•The mechanism of action of diuretics are

o Osmotic diuretics are substances that are not reabsorbed or that exceed the ability of the tubule to reabsorb it, which increases osmolarity of the urine, and causes water to be drawn into the urine from the ISF.

o Loop diuretics (Lasix) inhibit symporters in the loop of Henle by diminishing sodium chloride uptake. They reduce the normal hyperosmolality of the medullary interstitial fluid, reducing the effects of ADH, resulting in loss of NaCl and water.

o Thiazides act on the distal convoluted tubule to inhibit water reabsorption.

•Her diet is salt-restricted because if salt content in the blood is high, it will cause her to retain water rather than allowing her to eliminate it.

Can somebody please write me a 2 paragraph essay on how you mange stress
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

I hope this is what you were looking for! :)

There are many ways you can reduce stress, even ones that can change your life.

Explanation:

     Stress can interrupt your daily life making your everyday life, or trying to enjoy simple tasks, a hassle. One way you can reduce and avoid stress is by finding simply what makes you stressed. Locating the source and being aware of it can help with that overwhelming feeling that it may cause. The next thing you can do is just do something about it! Stressed about being a new parent? Afraid you won't make the basketball team? Talk to your friends, family, peers, anyone who can help you through this time of uncertainty. Watch videos for new parents and find books about how to make sure you're doing the best you can and be confident in this -understandably stressful- thing that you may need some help with. Confronting the stress and making yourself happy or confident in the situation may help. If this doesn't quite make you feel any better- distract yourself, at reasonable times. Don't ignore the problem or event altogether, but a nice healthy distraction may just be what you need. If you are preparing for tryouts and all you can think about is how you can't get your shot from half-court down? Take a break off the court for a while if that's what you may need. You can go and see a movie with your friends (maybe not <em>Space</em> <em>Jam</em>). Turn to a book, relax your muscles, do something! (other than trying again, and again, and again) because while practice does make perfect, you're allowed to have a break every once in a while. Not letting yourself have a breather may increase your stress even more. But all of these may help you get back on your game, and without sore wrists or mind from practicing all day, you may finally get that two-pointer. The stress? What stress?

     Another way you may manage stress is just to do simple self-care, such as planning time for scheduled relaxation. Relaxing can de-stress your nerves, in forms such as yoga, meditating, or even just having some downtime to just let yourself take a deep breath -or two- literally. Schedule you-time, doing something that makes you feel good or happy, even if that thing is as simple as a crossword puzzle or going on a walk. Make sure you're eating and getting your daily nutrition in regularly. Making a 'meal plan' can help with the stressful long work or school days and having what you will eat mapped out (or even cooked already) can also be a great way to make sure you're eating the right amount proportionally and nutritionally. Eating is also proven to put a positive improvement upon your mood. Avoid negative things like staying up at night, not getting daily exercise, or including drugs or alcohol in your life. These things can add more elements to your stress, and the effects of stress may weigh on you. All of these can make you more prone to stress or make stress impact you in a more serious or harder-to-cope way. Stress is an everyday thing so don't <em>stress</em> it- just do what you can.

agasfer [191]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are

A. increase the incline of the elliptical

B. decrease the incline of the elliptical

C. increase the duration of his workout

D. decrease the duration of his workout

Answer:

B. decrease the incline of the elliptical

Explanation:

Elliptical machines are fitness machines which are usually easy to use and can be easily maintained and controlled.

The machines are connected with the heart rate monitor which can count the heartbeat per minute and show them. These elliptical machines are mostly prefered by the people who have problems in their knees, hips and elbows and others.

In the given question, the person is using the elliptical walking machine which is set in an inclined position. The heart rate is recorded at 178 beats per minute and to decrease the heart rate, the inclination of the machine must be reduced. This decrease in inclination uses less power consumption therefore the heartbeat can be lowered.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.
