Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Here are the answers:

Soaking the foot in warm water
Applying antibiotic ointment

In an ingrown nail, the nail sliver penetrates the skin, resulting in inflammation that may hinder ambulation and interfere with activities of daily living. After the nail sliver is removed by a podiatrist, treatment involves soaking the foot in warm water and applying antibiotic ointment. Application of an ice pack is suitable for plantar fasciitis rather than an ingrown toenail. Treatment of secondary infection is advised in hypertrophic ungual labium, which results from an untreated ingrown nail. The application of padding and lanolin creams is recommended for calluses.

Passive transport involves movement of substances

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Passive transport involves movement of substances from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration.

Explanation:

Passive transport involves the passage of substances through a semi-permeable membrane, as occurs with transport at the level of cell membranes.

Generally, passive transport occurs with the movement of compounds from the space with the highest concentration of a specific substance to the space with the lowest concentration of the same substance, following the so-called concentration gradient. Theoretically, the gradient tends to disappear when the concentrations of substances have balanced out.

Regarding other options:

A. From areas of lower concentration to areas of higher concentration. It is a feature of active transport.

C. From areas in which the concentration has reached a balance. There is no passive transport

D. From areas of differing concentrations with the use of cellular energy. Energy use involves active transport.
