(Halden 4) One would not think that dying is…

phase. In order for the baby to be born, the cervix needs to ripen and open. Whilst this is happening, the woman may experi-ence moderate and regular contractions, backaches or stomach aches. This phase is also known as pre-labour. As a result of these changes, the mucus plug in the cervix can come out. This is called a show. By the end of this stage, the woman’s cervix will be fully dilated and open to about 10 cm in diameter. During early labour, the cervix starts to open and widen. Some…
8. Thermoregulation is keeping the body's temperature controlled or regulated. 9. The portion of the brain that contains sensors that monitor body temperature is the hypothalamus. 10. a) Two mechanisms the body uses to cool itself are the blood vessels dilating to radiate heat, and sweat glands increasing to increase sweat production. b) Two mechanisms the body uses to heat itself are the blood vessels constrict, reducing heat, and muscles beginning to shiver, generating heat. 11. a) The…
some people do not appreciate the opportunity and instead they damage the uterus each time an abortion is done. An abortion may lead to many complications. For examples: excessive bleeding from a torn cervix, infections that lead to fevers or scarring, an “incompetent cervix” from forcing open the cervix for an abortion, and “perforated uterus, bowel, or bladder” due to damage from the unsafe instruments used. Worst of all, “women who have abortions more than double their risk of future…
