Answer:

1. Other assessments are necessary to this patient on given information of the patients are :

- headache before or after seizures.

- if proper functioning in sensory organs for taste, smell, hear

- complete brain assessments

- questionnaire related to seizures.

- forget about the seizure episode

- EEG

- complete blood test

- head CT/ MRI scan

2. CAUSES OF SEIZURES

High blood pressure due to

Sudden electric activity in the brain

too high or low levels than usual of sodium or glucose in the brain

Infection in brain

brain tumor

cardiac disease

high fever

3. in this case seizure is not known, during seizure time headache is common but with a high grade when compared to the normal, mainly it starts before the seizure.

in seizure time some times complete loss of memory, systolic and diastolic blood pressure also increases, heart rate increases. then oxygen saturation less than 100%. in this case heart rate is regular .

3. In what possible scenario would the female birds evolve to having the singing trait? (5 points)

Iteru [2.4K]

The possible scenario for singing traits in female birds will be about 26% in Generation 4 species

Explanation:

Singing trait have been common among both male and female birds and it is an ancestral traits. However, singing has been more sex-specific with male birds. Reasons for which birds generally sing are:

To attract the mates
While making nests and laying eggs
For the young birds to recognize their parents

However, various studies prove that the singing trait in female birds is reducing with increase in non-singing female birds over the years due to evolutionary course.

Which of the following would not result in the dilation of the feeder arterioles and opening of the pre capillary sphincter in s

motikmotik

Answer:

Option (C).

Explanation:

The dilation of feeder arterioles carry blood directly into the blood vessels. The pre capillary sphincter in the systemic capillary beds can open due to the different factors.

The local release of histamines do not cause the dilation of feeder arterioles and does not cause the opening of systemic capillary beds. Histamine chemical is involved in the immune response of the body.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

beks73 [17]

Answer:

A biologist studying ponds in Alaska wants to determine if the temperature of a pond affects the length of the fish in that pond. He traps and measures fish in each pond, gathering the following data:

Choose a way to represent this data using either a bar graph or a scatter plot. Then write a summary of the data to answer the question as to whether temperature is related to the size of fish.

1. You are studying an integral membrane protein of the plasma membrane. It has a single transmembrane domain and the N-terminal

Drupady [299]

Answer:

A 22 to 25 amino acid sequence present in the central section of the protein, which gives rise to an alpha helix in the membrane is known as the stop-transfer anchor sequence. The sequence plays an essential function in targeting the protein towards the plasma membrane. On the other hand, it also ceases targeting of the protein towards the endoplasmic reticulum, which was started by the signal peptide.

Thus, the process of translation of the remaining of the protein occurs within the cytosol due to the tethering of the transmembrane domain. In the stop-transfer anchor sequence, the hydrophobic amino acids present are isoleucine and valine. After mutation, these amino acids get converted into arginine and lysine, thus, hydrophilic amino acids replace hydrophobic amino acids in the sequence.

Due to this, the transmembrane domain cannot be targeted towards an integral part of the plasma membrane by the short transfer anchor sequence, and therefore, now the translocation of the protein will take place towards the endoplasmic reticulum as initiated by the signal peptide at the beginning.
