Answer: Diabetes insipidus

Explanation:  Diabetes insipidus is a hormonal disorder that results from decreased levels of anti-diuretic hormone (ADH), also known as vasopressin. This hormone reduction leads to reduced retention of water in the body. Commonly noted symptoms include severe thirst, and frequent, excessive urination. Medications and lifestyle changes are the main course of treatment. Treatment options are decided based on the type of diabetes insipidus.

In a protein supplement that contains 154 total kcalories, 11 grams of protein, and 17 grams of carbohydrate, how many kcalories
Llana [10]

Answer:

In this protein supplement there are 11 grams of protein which contribute with 44 kcalories. Therefore, the percentage of kcalories coming from protein in this particular supplement is 28,5 %.

Explanation:

Each gram of protein contributes 4 kcal (calories), so 11 grams of proteins x 4 kcal/gram = 44 kcal.

The total amount of kcalories is 154, so 44 kcal / 154 kcal x 100 = 28,5%.

When it comes to protein supplements is very important to realise how many proteins are being consumed and how many total calories this supplement has, for the simple reason that it might be not help to reach the protein goal for a particular individual, but instead, it might be providing too many calories that come from non-protein compounds.

Put the following events of the adaptive immune response in the order they occur.
LenKa [72]

Answer:

The immune response to infection, of whatever kind, is vital for human survival. At its core lies the cells, and enzymes, as well as chemical components, that will activate these responses, the innate, and the acquired immune response.

Although still under lots of study, and science finding new things in this complex system, the order of the steps in which the system is activated, roughly, is this:

1. C. You cut yourself and bacteria enter the wound.

2. F. A dendrite near the cut phagocytizes some bacteria and uses MHC proteins to present exogenous antigens from the destroyed bacteria on its surface

3. A. The antigen-presenting macrophage and some of the bacteria, enter the lymph and float down a lymph vessel to the lymph node, where T cells are awaiting to recognize it and act.

4. E. Helper T cells at the lymph node use their T cell receptors to bind the antigens on the surface of the dendrite and bacteria. This triggers the helper T cells to reproduce, differentiate and release cytokines and other elements that increase inflamation and activate other immune cells.

5. G. Also, B cells at the lymph node use their B cell receptors to bind to the antigens on the surface of the bacteria and dendrite. These B cells also bind to the cytokines being produced. This triggers the B cells to reproduce and start making antibodies. They also trigger cytotoxic T cells CD4 and CD8 differentiation and activation.

6. B. All the elements produced flow through the blood, activating other immune responses and migrate them towards the site of infection. Because of the inflammation, and thanks to the cytokines and protoinflammatory elements, more cells are activated and they can penetrate the inflammed tissue.

7. D. Through the actions of the antibodies, cytokines, chemicals, and different actions of the cells, phagocytes, and cytotoxic T cells are finally able to destroy the invading bacteria and kill all infected tissue as well, leaving behin scar tissue at the site of the wound, and both B and T cells activate their memory capacity, so that if a new infection by that microorganism happens again, the response will be much faster and efficient.

This is a very broad organization of the immune response.
