The brain loses its capacity to think well and do other life activities normally.....!

Hello!! Whenever your brain is addicted to drugs, it does not function/work properly as someone who is not addicted to drugs. Just to name a few drugs, Nicotine affects Acetylcholine because it activates receptors and increases alertness. Most people who are addicted to Nicotine are considered to be almost paranoid because they are more alert than usual. Valium affects the neurotransmitter GABA because it enhances receptor binding causing to decrease anxiety. Another one would be Cocaine because it affects the neurotransmitter Dopamine which blocks reuptake and causes euphoria. Your brain allows you to be alert, aware, think properly, and do things normally. Drugs alter that entirely. You will not be your usual self whenever you are on drugs/addicted to drugs. I hope I helped!! Have a great day. :)

A client with acute renal failure progresses through four phases. which describes the onset phase?
DanielleElmas [232]

Acute renal failure (ARF), commonly referred to as acute kidney injury (AKI), is a brief period of kidney damage or malfunction which lasts some few hours to a few days.

The kidneys struggle to maintain the proper balance of fluids in the body when waste products accumulate in the body.

AKI includes 4 stages:

(I) initiation,

(II) oligo-anuria,

(III) polyuria, and

(IV) restitution.

The onset phases of ARF are best described by stage 1, which is called Initiation.

The initial phase of kidney damage is characterized by a 25% reduction in renal blood flow as well as tissue oxygenation, as well as a decrease in urine output to less than 0.5 mL/kg/hr, as a result of events including such blood loss, dehydration, burns, diabetes insipidus, or infection.

This phase last hours to days.

Energy comes to the earth surface in the form of sunlight. When the sunlight strikes the earth surface, some energy is absorbed by the earth through vegetation in the process of photosynthesis, while more are reflected back into the space but these light radiation trapped by greenhouse gases such as carbondioxide, methane and nitrous oxide etc which increases the temperature and causes global warming which changes our climate.
