Health
1 answer:
eduard3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The true statement regarding the pancreas is that pancreas secretes sodium bicarbonate (option D).

Explanation:

The pancreas is a gland that performs both exocrine and endocrine functions. Within its exocrine function this gland can secrete a solution formed by water and sodium bicarbonate.

The <u>secretion of pancreatic sodium bicarbonate is carried out from the ductal and central cells</u>, providing a hydroelectrolytic solution useful for attenuating stomach acid at the level of the duodenum.

The other options are not correct because:

<em>     A. </em><u><em>Trypsin </em></u><em>is an enzyme that is responsible for breaking the pethidic bonds of porters, and not carbohydrates.</em>

<em>     B. Pancreatic </em><u><em>amylase </em></u><em>acts on carbohydrates, not fats.</em>

<em>     C. </em><u><em>Lipase</em></u><em> in pancreatic juice acts on fats, not on sugars or carbohydrates.</em>

The three main treatment options for bone fractures are:

Casting.
Open reduction, and internal fixation- this involves a surgery to repair the fracture-frequently, metal rods, screws or plates are used to repair the bone, and remain in place, under the skin, after the surgery. This procedure is recommended for complicated fractures not able to be realigned (reduced) by casting, or in cases in which the long-term use of a cast is undesirable.
Open reduction, and external fixation- this involves a surgery to repair the fracture, and placement of a external fixation device on the limb with the fracture. This device is an external frame which supports the bone and hold it in the correct position while it is healing. This technique is generally applied to complex fractures that cannot be repaired using open reduction, and internal fixation.
