Which of the following is true about leukotrienes?

Health
1 answer:
djverab [1.8K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The statement that is true about leukotrienes is that they create excess mucus in the airways (last option).

Explanation:

Leukotrienes are inflammatory mediators, derived from arachidonic acid, in whose presence occurs increased vascular permeability in tissues, leading to inflammatory processes.

The presence of leukotrienes has been related to the development of allergic reactions, mainly in the respiratory tract, producing edema in the mucosa, contraction of the smooth muscles of the airways and increased production of mucus in the airways.

the other options are not correct because leukotrienes:

  • <em>Produce contraction of the smooth musculature around the airway. </em>
  • <em>Are related to the production of bronchial asthma. </em>
  • <em>Are inflammatory (chemical) mediators. </em>

Which of the following best describes what infant care providers should do in order to safely nourish formula-fed infants?
laiz [17]
Well technically it does not matter if you keep the formula in the fridge or cabinet and it is definitely not safe to have the water boiling it could make a hole in the baby's throat and you don't need all infants to have so my guess is to convince moms to switch to breast feeding because studies show when you breast feed the baby is smarter then formula fed infants.
