Answer:

d. psychogenic shock

Explanation:

Psychogenic shock causes the dilatation of the blood vessels supplying the muscles. This then leads to a decrease in blood pressure and this decrease alters the flow of blood that supplies the brain and ultimately leading to fainting or syncope. Although the pulse rate increases but this only acts as a compensatory mechanism due to the fall in blood pressure. The skin also becomes cold and sweaty as a result of the decrease blood flow.

What kind of parasite can live in refrigerated conditions?
IgorC [24]

Answer: Some bacteria, protozoans and worms called nematodes

Explanation:

Refrigerated conditions typically include temperatures ranging from 4 °C to  below freezing. This preserves food by halting mechanisms of decay and spoilage. Some parasites, which are incapable of surviving their entire life cycle on their own as free living organisms, have mechanisms or adaptations that allow them to withstand very low temperatures. Some examples include:

  • <em>Anisakis </em>(sealworm)- nematodes found in fish; these worms typically inhabit hosts that survive in cold temperatures; they require prolonged freezing and cooking to kill larvae.
  • <em>Giardia</em>: these microscopic parasites are proto.zoans. During their life cycles cysts are known to be able to survive in cold water for prolonged periods of time
  • <em> Listeria- </em>these bacterial parasites are ubiquitous have been responsible for numerous food recalls. When they enter the human body, they become parasites which feed on human cells and cause the disease listeriosis.

DIA [1.3K]

The subjective nature of the analysis of dreams is an important criticism of this view. The best way to prevent drug abuse is by raising awareness of the devastating effects of drugs.

According to Freud, all dreams are expressions of specific wishes (e.g., dreams of food when hungry).

In consequence, Freud believed that the interpretation of dreams is key for the knowledge of the unconscious desires of the mind.

However, there is no objective 'scientific' manner to test (either confirm or reject) a null hypothesis showing that the interpretations of such dreams are accurate.

On the other hand, it has been shown that the most effective way to prevent drug abuse among children and adolescents is by raising awareness of the effects of drugs.

Some useful ways to raise awareness on drug addiction and misuse include: hosting a speaker, reading information about how legal drugs (e.g., alcohol and tobacco) affect the brain, resisting social pressures to the use of both legal and illegal drugs, etc.
