Levodopa belongs to a group of drugs called central nervous system agents. In order to work, it changes into dopamine in the brain.
Decarboxylase inhibitors are a class of drugs that includes carbidopa. It works by preventing the breakdown of levodopa before it reaches the brain.
Levodopa can now be used at a lower dosage, which results in less nauseousness and vomiting.

How can you help Dan understand his condition and how his medication, levodopa plus carbidopa (Sinemet), will help him?

Organise a meeting with other PD patients to motivate him to thirve in life
Be very patient with him
Ask and clarify all his doubts
Be approachable
Explain about the positive outcomes of his life though he's having Parkinson disease
If verbal communication is hindered ask and answer through sign language
You educate yourself and him about symptoms, treatments, and the progression of the condition
Set realistic goals for him

The movement of ions through their channels require a discharge of the capacitance.

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The answer to the question: The movement of ions through their channels require a discharge of the capacitance, is, true.

Explanation:

In order for cells, muscular and neuronal, to perform their activities, they need to generate action potentials, that will permit these activities. In order for an action potential to happen, a cell´s membrance must be charged, or rather, its polarity must be changed, so that the cell can be charged and then fire. Usually, cells remain in a resting membrane state, in which, the extracellular matrix remains positive, while the intracellular space remains positive, due to ion, and anion presence in either. In order for the action potential to happen, these polarities are reversed through a series of steps in which ions, particularly potassium and sodium, sometimes calcium, will enter and exit the cell´s membrane to change this polarity. But in order for this process to take place, first a current, or stimulation, must motivate the cell to start the process. The capacitance is the capability of a cell to be ready to be activated or de-activated when stimulated, meaning, to be charged and discharged, when necessary. In order for this capacitance to permit the process of action potential formation, it needs to be discharged first, and this is done through the stimulus, which orders the cell´s membrane to initiate depolarization by opening up the ion channels. This is why the answer is true.

How do vaccines work? Do they work against viruses and bacteria? Why there<br> are so many vaccines.

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Vaccines train our immune systems to create proteins that fight disease, known as ‘antibodies’, just as would happen when we are exposed to a disease but – crucially – vaccines work without making us sick. Live, attenuated vaccines fight viruses and bacteria. These vaccines

contain a version of the living virus or bacteria that has been weakened

so that it does not cause serious disease in people with healthy immune

systems. Because live, attenuated vaccines are the closest thing to a

natural infection, they are good teachers for the immune system.

Examples of live, attenuated vaccines include measles, mumps, and

rubella vaccine (MMR) and varicella (chickenpox) vaccine. Even

though they are very effective, not everyone can receive these vaccines.

Children with weakened immune systems—for example, those who are

undergoing chemotherapy—cannot get live vaccines. Those are only some vaccines, of course not all vaccines inject a live virus into your body. And of course, there are so many vaccines because (unfortunately) there are so many diseases!
