Answer:

The statement that best represents similarities in communication between the nervous and endocrine systems is that nervous and endocrine systems both help the body to stay in balance through homeostasis (option A).

Explanation:

The nervous system (NS) is responsible for coordinating all body activity, including the hormonal activity provided by the endocrine system.

When NS detects a change or imbalance in the body, it sends signals, via the autonomic nervous system, to the endocrine glands, whose hormones contribute to correcting the change, thus helping to maintain homeostasis.

The other options are not correct, due to :

  • <em>The nervous system communicates only through neurotransmitters and electrical signals. </em>
  • <em>The endocrine system communicates only through chemical messages, the hormones. </em>
  • <em>The rapid communication between cells is not the most notable effect of the interaction between the nervous and endocrine systems.</em>

ira [324]

Answer: 18.46%

((APS*100)/65) = %DV

APS = Amount Per Serving

65 = Total Fat DV

%DV = Percent Total Fat

Explanation:

The % Daily Value (%DV) is the percentage of the Daily Value for each nutrient in a serving of the food. The Daily Values are reference amounts (expressed in grams, milligrams, or micrograms) of nutrients to consume or not to exceed each day.

The %DV shows how much a nutrient in a serving of a food contributes to a total daily diet.

The %DV helps you determine if a serving of food is high or low in a nutrient.

(Not 100% certain.)

A 42-year-old fair-skinned woman of Irish origin presents with an abnormal skin growth that was first noted 7 years ago. On exam
julsineya [31]

Answer:C) Minimal but discernible increase in size over the past 6 months.

Explanation:

Irrespective of the presence and length of a lesion, any discernible alteration in size or other characteristics (such as color or regularity of borders) requires further evaluation. Since its start, no change in size but moderate sporadic pruritus over the last 2 years is wrong. While any skin lesion may develop into malignancy, a long-standing, essentially unchanged lesion carries a very low probability of malignancy. Since the beginning no evolution in size but uniformly darkly pigmented color is wrong. Although dark lesions are sometimes of concern, lesions should be assessed specifically for color variation, in particular blue and black mixed with white and red(Which represents inflammatory processes and melanoma scarring characteristics). It is wrong to have identical pink tan lesions in the exposed areas of the skin, including the face and hands. In general, skin cancer is characterized by an initial focus of malignancy with distal metastases on organs other than the skin; multiple similar skin findings that do not meet the criteria in the mnemonic ABCDE‐EFG (Asymmetry, Border Irregularity, Color Variations, Diameter > 6 mm, Evolving, Elevated, Solid, Growing) are more likely to be benign. The proximal position is incorrect, that is to say, over the bicep rather than the distal limb. Proximal or distal location has no effect on the risk of malignancy.

Ilya [14]

Answer:

The inhibition of the formation of the mitotic spindle leads to the arrest of cells in metaphase, stopping cancer cells from dividing. Moreover, the inhibition of the DNA synthesis may also lead to cell cycle arrest, thereby also stopping cancer cells from proliferating.

Explanation:

Vinblastine Sulfate is a natural alkaloid that binds to the microtubules of the spindle apparatus in the S phase of the cell cycle, thereby arresting tumor cells in metaphase. Moreover, vinblastine sulfate is another alkaloid drug that alters the formation of microtubules in the cell cycle (mitosis). Mitomycin C  is a chemotherapeutic agent that produces interstrand DNA cross-links, thereby inhibiting DNA synthesis in tumor cells. Finally, cis-platinum is another chemotherapy agent that produces cross-links between DNA and proteins and thus arrests the cell cycle of tumor cells in the G1 phase.
