Answer:

B.functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)                                                                                                        

Explanation:

Functional magnetic resonance imaging: The term functional magnetic resonance imaging is also referred to as functional MRI which is responsible for measuring an individual's brain activity via detection of changes related to the blood flow. It is based on the phenomenon which states that the neuronal activation and cerebral blood flow are considered as coupled. The blood flow in the area of the brain increases if its in use.

In the question above, the given statement represents the functional magnetic resonance imaging.

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. Cushing's syndrome

Explanation:

Cushing's syndrome is a rare disease caused by an excess of the hormone cortisol in the body. Cortisol is a hormone normally secreted by the adrenal glands and is necessary for life. It allows responding to stressful situations, such as illness, and affects most body tissues.  When the body produces too much cortisol, Cushing syndrome develops, regardless of the cause. Some patients have Cushing's syndrome because they have a tumor in the adrenal glands, which causes them to make too much cortisol. Other patients have Cushing syndrome because they make too much of the hormone ACTH, which stimulates the adrenals to make cortisol. When ACTH comes from the pituitary, we speak of Cushing's disease. In Cushing's syndrome, the elevated level of cortisol produced by the adrenal glands increases the blood sugar level. The most common symptoms in adults are weight gain (especially in the trunk, and often not accompanied by weight gain in the arms and legs), high blood pressure (hypertension), and changes in memory, mood and concentration. Other problems such as muscle weakness appear due to the loss of protein in the body tissues.

A battery is used to drive a circuit, but after a certain amount of time, the current is zero. When the same circuit is driven b
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

capacitors only

Explanation:

When a battery or a DC supply is used to drive a circuit, the current becomes zero after some time. But when an AC generator is used in the same circuit, the current is non-zero and is alternates.

Here, a combination of capacitors are used to drive the circuit.

As we know in capacitor,

current, i = c. dv/dt

where c is capacitance, v is voltage and t is time.

So as in DC voltage, v (voltage) is constant and hence current i = 0.

But in AC voltage, the voltage v varies with time t. Therefore here capacitors are used only.

Capacitors are used to store energy.

Thus the answer is capacitors.
