This could also lead to evolution, survival of the fittest, overpopulation and the extinction of others. Limiting factors can be many things like space, food, light and many other things. For Sunflowers and example that would lead to carrying capacity would be if all the organisms that consumed or killed the plant would be removed from its environment by an invasive species or environmental changes, then the Sunflowers would grow faster and closer to each other. This would cause space, water,…

thickening in the arterial wall called an Atheroma (or "fibro-fatty plaque"). Atheroma narrows the lumen of arteries and weakens the vessel wall. Atherosclerosis begins in childhood and slowly progresses throughout life. Typically, it produces symptomatic clinical disease during the fifth and sixth decades of life. The atheromatous plaque is a raised lesion within the intima of arteries composed of a core of cholesterol, necrotic cellular debris and inflammatory cells. This is covered by a…

Target article: Green, R.E., Krause, J., Briggs, A.W., Maricic, T., Stenzel, U., Kircher, M. et al. (2010). A draft sequence of the Neandertal genome. Science, 328, 710-722. This study created a draft sequence of approximately 60% of the Neanderthal genome based on nucleotides from three individual Neanderthal samples (Vindija Neanderthal fossils Vi33.16, Vi33.25 and Vi33.26). The study differs from previous attempts to examine Neanderthal DNA as it examines mitochondrial DNA, Y chromosomal…

It is estimated that nearly 35% of the US population has metabolic syndrome1. Metabolic syndrome encompasses a cluster of disorders that increase risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes.2 The GI tract is home to trillions of microorganisms that confer benefits to the host. Recent evidence has implicated alternations in gut microbiota composition and metabolic activity in the pathophysiology of metabolic syndrome3,4. Maintenance of gut barrier function, regulation of immune response…

Theresa, I remembered in our Med-Surg 1 when we were learning about MI, professor Teri Reynolds taught us a acroyname that helped the class to remember immediet treatment for MI, which is MONA and it stands for morphine, oxygen, nitroglycerin, and aspirin. It does not need to be in the same order, but it is want you administer for a patient that is experiencing MI. After a patient is stable from a MI, it is very important to assess and provide intervention to the patient to prevent for future…

Answer: Genvoya (Elvitegravir/cobicistat, tenofovir alafenamide, emtricitabine); 1 tablet (elvitegravir 150 mg/cobicistat 150 mg/emtricitabine 200 mg/tenofovir alafenamide 10 mg) orally once daily with food; indefinitely duration Rational: Based on the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ guideline for the Use of Antiretroviral Agents in Adults and Adolescents Living with HIV, the recommended initial regimens are DTG/ABC/3TC, DTG+tenofovir/FTC, EVG/c/tenofovir/FTC, RAL+tenofovir/FTC.…

Introduction I have chosen the diabetes diet because it will help me as a chef to understand my clients varied dietary needs and my family history about diabetic. My uncle has been type 1 diabetes since 1985 and my mother has been type 2 diabetes since 2012. I don 't know exactly the cause of my mother because she always eats various vegetables such as capsicum, carrot, spinach, lettuce, onion, garlic, etc and has exercises every day over about 2 hours. I know the causes of type 2 diabetes…

Body systems and the bond types of Vitamins and Minerals go hand in hand. The Digestive System breaks down food into vitamins and minerals to be transported to other body systems. The Integumentary System is made up of skin, which uses copper to create Melanin to help protect against the sun. The Integumentary System also uses Vitamins A and C, as well as Niacin and Zinc for healthy growth and repair of skin. The Respiratory System consists of mouth, nose and lungs to inhale oxygen and exhale…

The Bubonic Plague is a bacteria known as Yersinia Pestis that infects the lymphatic system causing it to become inflamed (Tonsils, Adenoids, Spleen, and Thymus). The bacteria needs calcium to grow but when there is no calcium it produces amino acids called aspartic acid. Aspartic acid raises the blood plasma level of aspartate and glutamate. This excess can lead to damage of sensitive neurons. It can also help generate cellular energy, balance neurochemistry, and help the liver rid the body of…

provide a structural function, transport function, and signaling function all within the membrane (Yeagle, 1989). The carbohydrates are on the external side of the cell membrane. Also the carbohydrates provide a signaling function with the proteins and lipids. B. Some of the physical ways of testing a cell membrane is to try to break it physically by using specific tools to do so. Chemical methods can also help to break down a cell membrane. Therefore, just by using different concentration…
