are the benefits of dialysis worth the cost?

Answers

Answer:

The cost of alternative dialysis modalities for the treatment of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) was evaluated, using a societal viewpoint, in a regional nephrology program in south-western Ontario. The dialysis treatments compared were hospital hemodialysis, home hemodialysis, self-care hemodialysis, and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). The participants were all patients treated by the same dialysis modality for the fiscal year April 1990 to March 1991. Fully allocated costs are expressed in 1993 Canadian dollars. The average costs per patient year were $88,585 for hospital hemodialysis, $55,593 for self-care hemodialysis, $44,790 for CAPD, and $32,570 for home hemodialysis. The dialysis treatment costs were $54,929 for hospital hemodialysis, $43,313 for self-care hemodialysis, $31,918 for CAPD, and $26,048 for home hemodialysis. These data quantify the magnitude of the differences between fully-allocated costs among the dialysis modalities in a regional nephrology program in Canada. The methodology used in this economic analysis can be applied to programs which differ in structure and scale. The breakdown of dialysis treatment costs into overhead, support department, personnel, supplies, and medication identifies potential areas for cost reduction strategies.

Living things need energy
Your essay need to include;
producer
consumer
decomposer

Answers

Answer/Explanation:

∴ ║ Living Things Need Energy ║∴

The ability to obtain and use energy is one of the eight characteristics of all living things.  Scientists classify organisms based on how they get their energy: autotrophs or heterotrophs.  Organisms are divided into three main groups- the producers, the consumers and the decomposers.  

Producers get their energy from abiotic factors (non-living sources).  Most producers are plants and get their energy directly from the sun using a process called photosynthesis.  There are also some bacteria that can make their own food from chemicals using a process call chemosynthesis.  Examples of common producers are grasses, trees and flowers.  Algae (which are protists, not plants) are the main producers in aquatic ecosystems. Remember we call these autotrophs because they can make their own food.  

Consumers cannot make their own food.  Instead, they get their energy by eating other organisms.  These are also called heterotrophs.  There are many types of consumers.  Herbivores, such as grasshoppers and prairie dogs, only eat producers.  Carnivores eat animals.  Coyotes, badgers, and falcons are all carnivores.  Organisms that eat both producers and other consumers are known as omnivores.  Most humans are omnivores.  Scavengers are a special type of omnivore.  They eat dead plants and animals.  Vultures and many insects are common scavengers.  

Decomposers are a very special type of heterotroph because they get energy by breaking down dead or dying organisms.  Bacteria and fungi (mushrooms, molds and mildews) are examples of decomposers.  Decomposers are important to ecosystems because they return important nutrients such as water, carbon dioxide and nitrogen to the soil.  Plants then use these nutrients to grow, creating a cycle of nutrients through the ecosystem.        

Each of these organisms depends on the others.  Producers get energy from the sun or chemicals and then give some of this energy to consumers.  The consumers then give some of their energy to the decomposers.  Together, these organisms form a food chain.  A food chain is a series of events in which food energy is transferred from one organism to another.   All food chains have the basic structure of producer  ⇒ primary consumer  ⇒ secondary consumer ⇒ tertiary consumer  ⇒ decomposer.  There are many overlapping food chains in an ecosystem.  These overlapping food chains are known as a food web.  

As energy passes from level to the level in a food chain within a food web, the amount that each organism receives decreases.  For example, in a grassland ecosystem, the grasses get energy needed for life from the sun.  Some of this energy is used by the grass to grow and reproduce.  When a prairie dog eats the grass, it only gets 10% of the energy the grass originally had.  The prairie dog then uses some of the energy from the grass to grow and reproduce.  When a coyote eats the prairie dog, it only gets 10% of the energy the prairie dog originally had.  This decrease in energy at each level of the food chain can be represented by an energy pyramid.

If we know myofibrils are made of protein strands, what would expect to find a large number of in the myofibrils themselves.

Answers

Answer:

the Z lines and thick filaments of the myofibrils within the muscle fibers are aligned.

Explanation:

Myofibrils are made up of units that repeat along their length, called sarcomeres.

What is Myofibril what are its myofilaments?

Every muscle cell contains contractile protein filaments of two types: actin and myosin. These myofilaments (or myofibrils) are distinguished from one another by molecular weight, which is higher in the myosin filament.

With this information, we can conclude that myofibrils are made up of units that repeat along their length, called sarcomeres.

which property decribes a materails abilty to conduct heat ?
A . Electrical conductivity
B . Boiling point
C . Thermal conductivity
D . Melting point

Answers

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Your answer is option C or "thermal conductivity." Thermal conductivity relates to conduction, conduction is when heat transfers from a warm object to a cool object increasing the cooler objects temperature. A common example of material that can conduct heat would be something like metal, metal is able to transfer heat a lot quicker than something like rubber. It's not electrical conductivity because that is materials that are able to conduct electricity. It's not boiling point because that is the temperature that causes different liquids to boil, it's not melting point because that is the temperature that causes different materials to melt.

Hope this helps.

C because it was created to conduct heat.

First, what is a "Gymnosperm"?

A gymnosperm is a plant that has seeds unprotected  by a fruit.

Now, whats a fern?

A fern is a flowerless plant that  has feathery or leafy fronds and reproduces by spores released from the undersides of the fronds.

Okay, now, what makes them different? Ferns are flowerlessFerns do not have seedsFerns are grouped into one divisonFerns have smaller speciesGymnosperms have seeds.Gymnosperms are grouped in  more than one divisonGymnosperms have a larger species.

Now, what do the have in common?They are both vascular They both have sporophyte dominant generation

Some gymnosperm types

cycads. Palm-like plants found mainly in tropical and subtropical regions.ginkgoes: maidenhair tree. One species: Ginkgo biloba; the maidenfern tree no longer living in the wild, and only found in cultivation.gnetophytes: mormon tea, welwitschia, gnetum.conifers: pines, spruces and firs.

Some types of ferns

Boston Fern Maidenhair Fern Cretan Brake Fern Bird’s Nest Fern

Here is paragraph form:

Gymnosperms are different because they have seeds and ferns do not. Gymnosperms also have more than one divison.Both gymnosperms and ferns are vascular. They also both have sporophyte dominant generations. So this is what makes them similar and different.

Cut the Rope. Fruit Ninja. Words with Friends.Nearly everyone with a smartphone or tablet has played one of these video games. It is easy to get swept up in the bright colors, cutesy charactersand the satisfaction you feel when you finally complete a difficult level. So you keep playing, and playing, and playing. Many people say games like these are addictive. But, are they, really?Maybe. Addiction Science Award Winner Ethan Guinn1 definitely thought so. Dopamine: Sweet Rewards for the BrainRewards in video games, such as points or bonuses, are surprising and often unpredictable. Figuring out that special move or combination that helps you conquer each level feels great. Not knowing when you will get that reward keeps you engaged.These periodic bursts of pleasure are the work of dopamine. Dopamine is the chemical in your brain that causes you to feel happy, and it is what gets you hooked on lots of things in life.Your brain is designed to release dopamine in response to things that are good for youlike spending time with your friends, eating healthy food, or exercising. Dopamine bursts also reward you when you apply your cleverness to solving real-world problems.But people have figured out all kinds of ways to tap into the brains reward system with things that arent so good for you. Drugs and junk food are obvious, harmful examples. Video games might not kill you or make you overweight (at least not directly), but many people feel they are hooked on them. So, Is Gaming Really an Addiction?Scientists say that more research is needed before they can tell whether being hooked on a video game is actually an addiction.Addiction is more complicated than just wanting to feel good. People who are addicted to drugs often just want to feel normal or not bad. It is also more than just the compulsive need to keep using a drug or engaging in a behavior. Addiction means being unable to quit, even in the face of negative consequences.A person with a drug addiction wants to use drugs even when their grades have tanked, they have lost their job, and they no longer care about the things that were once important to them. When they are not using drugs, they feel withdrawal symptoms that make them sick. Scientists are not sure video games can cause the same effects.Butif you play a game so much that you dont participate in lifes normal activitiesyou dont sleep or eat or hang out with friends or do the things you used to loveyou are heading down a dangerous path. If that describes you, maybe you should try not playing the game for a day or two, or even a week. Ask people that you trust if they think you have a problem. And, if you find that you just cant stopeven if video gaming addiction isnt officially a diseaseyou can absolutely get help by talking to your parents or a guidance counselor at school. Which statement is the central idea of the passage?A. If adolescents think they may be neglecting responsibilities to play video games, it might be a good idea for them to talk to trusted adults.B. People who are addicted to drugs have physical symptoms when they quit, but video games do not have the same effects.C. There is no definite scientific evidence for video game addiction, but certain harmful behaviors make it an area of concern.D. There are many games that require players to work through levels to achieve success, and these are the ones that cause video game addiction.
