1. The sudden, rhythmic waves of pain probably is a colic pain. Colic pain happens because of obstruction in moving organs like intestine or the urinary tract. Pain from urinary tract will be felt in the groin area. Obstruction also decreases the urine output.
From this information, you can conclude that the <span>condition is bruce suffering urinary tract obstruction. More specific diagnosis would be urolithiasis because a stone is the most probable cause.

</span><span>2. how is it treated?
Urinary tract obstruction can be treated by introducing catheter. If the obstruction is caused by a stone, you can break the stone with various modality based on the stone size. Imaging test would be needed to confirm it beforehand.

</span><span>3. how can he prevent future episodes?
Kidney stone formed because the urine is saturated that cause some of the substance to make sediment. It can be prevented by increasing urine volume by drink more water. If there is more water in the urine, it won't be saturated easily, thus the risk of forming stone is decreased.</span>

Which statement best describes both insulin and glucagon? They both provide structural support, but only insulin is a carbohydra
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

They are both hormones that regulate blood-sugar levels

Explanation:

Insulin is a hormone that controls the blood glucose level. It released in the blood stream when the glucose level increases after eating food. It is produces by pancreas, insulin helps the glucose to enter the body's cells where it can either be stored for future use or can be used for energy.

Glcogen  is produced by alpha cells of pancreas, it is a peptide hormone. Its main function is to raise the concentration of fatty acids and glucose in the bloodstream. It is one of the main catabolic hormone of the body

As per the above mentioned statements, the option 'They are both hormones that regulate blood-sugar levels' is the correct answer.

Explain why a message moving along nerve pathways takes time.
TiliK225 [7]
The conduction of nerve impulses relies upon the movement of positively-charged ions across the nerve cell membrane. The entry of sodium into the cell produces a wave of positive charge that travels down the length of an axon. Then chemicals called neurotransmitters are secreted out of the end of the axon onto the next nerve in the series (the postsynpatic nerve). This narrow space in between neurons is called the synapse. These neurotransmiiters released by the presynaptic nerve bind to receptors on the postsynaptic nerve. The binding of these receptors opens up channels in this second nerve's membrane that allow sodium ions to enter the nerve cell and initiate another wave of positive charge, and so on... The nerve signal can only move as fast as these ions and neurotransmitters can diffuse to generate this process. 

<span>As a professional athlete repeats a given activity many times over, the nerve cells "upregulate" their receptors, meaning that they produce additional receptors to put in the membrane. This is just a natural reaction to the nerve being repeatedly stimulated in the same way over and over. When neurotransmitter is secreted from the presynaptic neuron, there are more receptors on the postsynaptic neuron for it to bind, more channels open up, more ions enter in a shorter time and build up positive charge to create the impulse faster, and so the overall effect is faster. </span>

<span>Additionally, there are sheaths of fatty tissue (called myelin) that insulate the charge in the neuron and allow it to be conducted faster. As people age, these sheaths can start to degrade, making the nerve cell more "leaky" and causing the impulse to be conducted more slowly. </span>
