Human Development:

Abnormal Genes and Chromosomes, and Teratogens Human development involves the growth of a zygote to maturity in a gradual process. A series of complex changes occurs within human bodies as development takes place. For instance, cells multiply either through meiosis or mitosis. The genetic makeup of cells also replicates. Normally, chromosomes will be separated to allow for replication of genes within cells. This process is very important during development. However, some abnormalities occur to genes and chromosomes due to teratogens. Teratogens are substances that interfere with the normal fetus or embryo growth and development, whereby they lead to their ...

All over the world, the number of people suffering from obesity coupled with those predisposed to obesity has been rising drastically over the years. As such, bariatric facilities need to assess whether their resources are adequate to accommodate this growing number of obese patients as well as overweight employees (Barness et al. 2011). Bariatric facilities can minimize their risk of liability and workers’ compensation claims by fully addressing the needs of bariatric patients. Moreover, they can define themselves as leaders in the provision of quality bariatric care by providing superior bariatric patient experience (Barness et al. 2011). To achieve ...

Introduction

Teratogen is broadly defined as an environmental agent capable of causing abnormal prenatal variation in form or function. In other words, it can be any environmental factor that can produce a permanent abnormality in structure or function of an embryo or fetus or restriction of growth of an infant (Gilbert-Barness, 2010). In prenatal life, exposure to teratogens may even lead to death of the embryo or fetus. It is estimated that approximately 15% of all congenital structural abnormalities observed in a child are due to exposure to some kind of teratogens during the prenatal life (Brent, 2001). A larger number of ...

Response to question- 1.

In responding to this question, Mr. T‘s ability to cope with such an emergency influences the outcome. Hence, monitoring symptoms indicative of tissue hypoxia are crucial to managing hemorrhage. This would be addressed in this following pages of this paper.

Hemodynamics is specifically related to how blood flows through the cardiac (heart) and systemic circulation (body organs and tissues)( Marieb, & Hoehn, 2007). The function of the heart is to pump oxygenated blood throughout the cardiovascular system. In monitoring these activities the pulse rate is measured as well as blood pressure levels in evaluating pressure at different parts ...
