A woman who has given birth once after a pregnancy for at least 20 weeks of gestation is called primipara while a woman who has given birth 2 or more times at 20 or more weeks of gestation is termed as multipara. Coping mechanisms are patterns of behavior toward managing and resolving various problems‚ events and stressors.

Visit and Issue Report ‘The use of Artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs) to prevent malaria transmission’ Problem Malaria is a life-threatening disease caused by parasites that are transmitted to people through the bites of infected mosquitoes. In 2010‚ malaria caused an estimated 655‚000 deaths (with an uncertainty range of 537‚000 to 907‚000)‚ mostly among African children. Increased malaria prevention and control measures are dramatically reducing the malaria burden in many places

1. Briefly explain how does the body maintain homeostasis? Homeostasis is a existence and maintenance of a relatively constant internal environment. Homeostasis is maintain by negative and positive feedback mechanism. Most homeostatic control mechanisms are negative feedback mechanisms. In these system‚ the output shut off the original stimulus or reduce its intensity. These mechanisms cause the variable to change in a direction opposite to that of the initial change‚ returning it to its “ideal”

Understand how homeostatic mechanisms operate in the maintenance of an internal environment Homeostasis is keeping the body balanced to allow cells to function‚ despite external environment. Homeostasis is important because the cells‚ blood and tissue fluids can change by slowing down or even stop a vital chemical reaction. Its aim is to keep the body to stay the same‚ at a normal condition. Negative feedback is when change is detected; there are steps when change is detected to get it back

Enzymology‚ Catalytic Mechanism‚ Carbohydrate Metabolism‚ Adenosine Triphosphate Enzymes are proteins and their function is to act as catalysts to speed up certain chemical reactions in the cell that would be slower without them. This process occurs as steps in a cycle with separate reactions in each step. If there is a missing product the step in the cycle will be incomplete and the normal function of the organism cannot be accomplished causing negative effects on the organism. The biological

Artikel: A conceptual framework for the design of organizational control mechanisms Problem: When a team of individuals produce a single output the problem arises on how to contribute the reward so that every individual is equally rewarded. This article examines three different mechanisms to deal with this issue: 1. Markets Markets deals with the control problem through precise measurement and reward of individual contributions. 2. Bureaucrats Bureaucrats rely on a mixture of close

Many people like to enjoy calm‚ and soothing music before a game to clear their minds of any distraction‚ or to release themselves of any nerves that may be building before a game. On the contrary‚ some players relish in the playing of loud‚ high energy music to help hype up the team and get their minds ready for war. These forms of music could be connected to the civil war times‚ where armies
