First of all we could start by verifying the clinical history. We could review past health complications, as well as present diagnosis that might be conditioning the hydration. Look for signs or symptoms such as lightheadedness, variations on the input/output of fluids, altered mental accuracy, etc. Recent gut problems and other bowels' problems should also be reviewed. Current medication should also be considered.
From a physical examination point of view, there should be a checking of vital signs, and evaluation of orthostatic blood pressure and any considerable swallowing.
Answer:
a) Ribosomes
b) Please find the justification for the answer in (a) below.
Explanation:
According to this question, Hepatitis C is a virus that causes liver disease by attacking the liver. However, a REDUCTION IN ALBUMIN, which is a protein that regulates oncotic pressure of blood in humans- a process necessary for the regulation of fluids in vessels of the body and tissue repair, has been found to have to do with liver disease.
Since ALBUMIN is a protein produced by the liver, which when diseased causes a reduction to the blood-albumin level, the organelle in liver cells that is most likely being affected by hepatitis C is the RIBOSOME. This is because the RIBOSOME is the organelle/site for PROTEIN SYNTHESIS in any cell. Hence, the ribosome organelle of the liver cells are responsible for synthesis of Albumin protein.
Hence, a diseased liver due to attack by Hepatitis C virus means an attack on the RIBOSOMES of the liver cells producing the protein.
