Answer:

Heatstroke can result in a number of complications, depending on how long the body temperature is high. Severe complications include:

Vital organ damage. Without a quick response to lower body temperature, heatstroke can cause your brain or other vital organs to swell, possibly resulting in permanent damage.

Death. Without prompt and adequate treatment, heatstroke can be fatal.

it is more likely to effect someone performing a physical activity as the person's temperature is already high due to body movement.

Local anesthetics block voltage-gated Na+ channels, but they do not block mechanically gated ion channels. Sensory receptors for
Vinvika [58]

Local anesthetics inhibit nerve conduction in a reversible manner without altering the nerve. The inhibition appears rapidly and for a longer or shorter duration depending on the products and the concentrations used. The extent of the territory rendered insensitive to pain depends on the modes of administration of the local anesthetic, either at the level of the nerve endings, or at the level of a nervous trunk, for example.

They act at the level of the neuronal membrane by interfering with the process of excitation and conduction. The anesthetic crosses the axon membrane, rich in lipids, in the form of base before taking up a cationic form on the internal face of the neuron where the pH is more acidic.

At this level, there is a blockage of nerve conduction by decreasing the membrane permeability to sodium ions that occurs during the depolarization phase. As the progression of the anesthetic action along the nerve increases, the threshold of excitability increases and the conduction time increases. This is completely blocked from a certain concentration of local anesthetic.

The nerve fibers are unequally sensitive to the action of local anesthetics: they disappear in order: the painful, thermal, tactile sensations.

Match the terms with the correct explanations.
andrezito [222]

1. A hormone that speeds up the heart  - Adrenaline

2. A hormone that puts more sugar in the blood and narrows  arteries to increase blood pressure  - Cortisol

3. A hormone released in females  - Estrogen

4. The system that moves the blood - Circulatory system

5. The system that gives support and structure to the body  - Skeletal system  

6. The system that creates movement  - Muscular system

Explanation:

Hormones:

Adrenaline or epinephrine: Released by: Adrenal glands

Function: Prepare the body in fight or flight response and hence accelerates heart rate, blood pressure enlarges pupil, expands air passages in lungs in preparation to that response.

Cortisol: Released by: Adrenal glands

Functions: Regulate metabolism and controls the blood glucose level; activates immune response; prepares body to respond to stress. An increase in cortisol level can narrow down or constrict the arteries and increase the blood pressure.

Estrogen: Released by: Ovaries

Function: Female sex hormones which develop feminine characteristics in females like breast and hair (underarm and pubic areas) development during puberty, protects the bone health, controls cholesterol, and activates body systems.

Body systems:

The circulatory system is a transport system complete with heart, blood and all the blood vessels. This system transports oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and other substances throughout the body and supplies all its tissues via blood travelling through the blood vessels. This also carries carbon dioxide and other waste products out from the body cells.

The skeletal system complete with bones and joints provides the supportive framework of the body which provides body shape and protects all the internal organs are present inside the framework. It also helps to synthesize RBCs in the bone marrow and helps to store minerals.

The muscular system complete with muscles and connective tissues aids in body movements both voluntary and involuntary and maintains posture.
