jonny [76]

Answer: resistance

Explanation:

The general adaptation syndrome (GAS), was developed by Hans Selye and it was used in describing the pattern of responses which the body goes through after it has being prompted by a stressor.

Resistance occurs when therenuw continuity of the perceived stress, which then leads to the body staying activated at a higher metabolic level so that the stress can be offset.

Exhaustion occurs when there's prolonged exposure to the stressor which will then will lead to the body’s resources to be depleted which will then suppress the immune system.

Anna007 [38]

The birth outcomes to emerge as significant correlates of co-use of Cannabis and tobacco cigarettes were small head circumference, and the occurrence of birth defects i.e. teratogenicity.

<h3>What is teratogenicity?</h3>
  • Teratogenicity is the ability of a drug or chemical to cause fetal abnormalities or deformities.
  • The drugs, chemicals, or even infections causing teratogenicity in fetus are called teratogens.
  • Common teratogens includes some medications, recreational drugs, tobacco products,  chemicals, alcohol, certain infections, and in some cases, uncontrolled health problems in the birthing parents.
  • Teratogens are most harmful early in pregnancy, starting about 10 to 14 days after conception to about 8 weeks into pregnancy.
  • Teratogens can cause neural tube defects such as spina bifida. Some organs are sensitive to teratogens during the whole pregnancy. This includes the brain and spinal cord of baby.
  • Alcohol affects the brain and spinal cord, so it can cause harm at any time during pregnancy.
  • To prevent teratogenicity avoid use of chemicals that may harm child like pesticides, fungicides, rodenticides or harsh cleaning products.
  • Avoid smoking, and alcohol consumption to prevent teratogenicity.

<h3>What is venipuncture?</h3>

A process when blood is drawn from a vein using a needle, typically for laboratory examination. Venipuncture can also be used to treat some blood diseases by removing extra red blood cells from the blood.

The median cubital and cephalic veins are commonly used for venipuncture. The vein is punctured with a needle. The blood gathers into a tube or vial that is linked to the needle and is sealed. You take off the elastic band from your arm. After removing the needle, the area is bandaged to halt the bleeding. Pressure should be applied to a venipuncture site for at least 5 minutes.
