Answer:

Pallor

Fatigue

Easy bruising

Cyanosis

When symptoms begin, a child appears pale, fatigues easily, and has anorexia from the lowered RBC count and tissue hypoxia. Because of reduced platelet formation (thrombocytopenia), the child bruises easily or develops petechiae (pinpoint, macular, purplish-red spots caused by intradermal or submucous hemorrhage). A child may have excessive nosebleeds or gastrointestinal bleeding. As a result of a decrease in WBCs (neutropenia) a child may contract an increased number of infections and respond poorly to antibiotic therapy. Observe closely for signs of cardiac decompensation such as tachycardia (not bradycardia), tachypnea (not bradypnea), shortness of breath, or cyanosis from the long-term increased workload of all these effects on the heart.

Describe the two membranes covering the heart.
alex41 [277]

Answer: Fibrous pericardium and Serous Pericardium

Explanation:

The pericardium can be defined as the fibroserous sac( double layered) which covers the whole heart. The gap between two layers of serous pericardium is filled with serous fluid. This fluid protects the heart from external shocks.

Fibrous pericardium

This layer is the most superficial layer which consists of dense connective tissue. This layer of the heart protects it from over filling of blood, anchors the heart to the surrounding wall.

Serous pericardium

This layer provides lubrication to the heart by resisting the friction which occurs during the various type of heart function.

Carbohydrates digestion begins in the oral cavity. Name the 3 sets of salivary glands that secrete this enzyme. Name the enzyme
likoan [24]

Answer:

We begins to digest the carbohydrates the minute the food goes to our mouth. The saliva which is secreted from our salivary glands moisten up the food when it is chewed. Salivary amylase is present in our saliva which begins the breaking process of sugars in the carbohydrates when we are eating.  It is also referred to as ptyalin. Salivary glands are exocrine glands which makes saliva through a ductory system.Humans have three major paired salivary glands ( parotid, submandibular & sublingual)as well as hundreds of minor salivary glands. Minor salivary glands on the tongue leads to the secretion of amylase. Parotid gland assemble purely serous saliva. The other major salivary glands produce mixed saliva ( serous plus mucous). Another types of serous fluid produced by two layered serous membranes which lines the serous cavity.
