Answer:

In John's case, the medical coder uses the ICD-10 code corresponding to Pneumocystis carinii infection secondary to Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection, whose code is B20.6.

Explanation:

Medical coders use ICD-10 to establish the diagnostic coding of diseases. ICD-10 corresponds to International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, a system proposed by the world health organization, that covers all possible clinical diagnoses of diseases in codes.

B20 in ICD-10 refers to the manifestation of HIV disease resulting in infectious and parasitic diseases.

Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia -previously P. carini pneumonia- is an opportunistic systemic fungal disease that occurs in people with immunodeficiencies, and its HIV-related code is B20.6.

The expansion of grasses during the Oligocene and Miocene Epochs led to
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

The answer is:

D. the radiation of herbivores such as grazing animals

Explanation:

Oligocene and Miocene Epochs:

  • The Oligocene epoch is characterized by temperate and subtropical climatic conditions which favored the expansion of grasses and reduced forest cover.
  • The Miocene epoch, which succeeded the Oligocene era, is attributed to changes in global circulation due to global warming of the climate followed by global cooling towards the end.

The Oligocence and Miocene epoch are both attributed to the expansion of grasslands and savannah. Both eras marked rapid and drastic evolutionary changes in grazing mammals and herbivores. Diverse groups of grazing mammals lived throughout these eras. For example, the largest herbivore and land mammal of all time, <em>Indricotherium</em> (a sort of giant hornless rhinoceros), was present in the Oligocene era.

Similarly, the Oligocene era in North America favored the rapid radiation of primitive horses.

In the experimental labster simulation, kidney cells were treated with a chemical for different amounts of time. The number of d
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

B. similar to the cells just treated with the dye - 0% dead

Explanation:

According to this question, an experiment was set up in which kidney cells were treated with a chemical for different amounts of time. Hence, the independent/manipulable variable is the CHEMICAL.

Based on the observation of the group of cells, a cell that has been damaged by the chemical will appear pink when treated with dye while a cell treated with only due but no chemical will not appear pink.

A NEGATIVE CONTROL is the group in an experiment that is not treated with the independent variable i.e. doesn't receive experimental treatment. Since the independent variable in this experiment is the CHEMICAL, the negative control will be the group that doesn't receive the chemical treatment. Hence, the negative control is similar to the cells just treated with the dye - 0% dead
