Someone I know was climbing a tree, then fell, and broke both arms. Is it painful? Someone tell me about it.
Answer:
YES
Explanation:
When they first hit the ground, the impact makes them forget about the pain. Some people might not feel the pain due to them hitting their head at a certain spot which is dangerous. Breaking a bone is like cracking a part of your body, but instead of stopping the crack it continues till you feel a hard like object penetrating the inside of your skin.
Answer:
If you have had a fall or hit your arm you might feel or hear a snap or a cracking sound.
The main symptom is pain, which will be worse if you try to move your arm. A broken upper arm (fractured humerus) can be extremely painful, so much so that you may feel sick, dizzy or faint.
Other symptoms of a broken upper arm are:
You will be unable to use your arm.
Your elbow or upper arm may be swollen.
Your elbow or upper arm may bruise.
If it is a very severe break, your arm may be a different shape.
You may notice tingling or numbness.
There may be bleeding if the broken bone (or your fall) has damaged the skin.

Which of the following pairs of terms identify spaces that are roughly PERPENDICULAR (at right angles to one another) in the human brain (give or take 30 degrees or so)?
temporal horn of the lateral ventricle and cerebral aqueduct
temporal horn of the lateral ventricle and central part (“body”) of the lateral ventricle
precentral sulcus and postcentral sulcus
inferior frontal sulcus and inferior temporal sulcus
central sulcus and the parieto-occipital sulcus
superior frontal sulcus and inferior frontal sulcus
Answer:
The correct option is;
Temporal horn of the lateral ventricle and the cerebral aqueduct
Explanation:
The temporal horn, of lateral ventricle, that is is located in the temporal lobe below the frontal and third ventricle and it is positioned sideways flat with a slight inclination while the cerebral aqueduct traverses from the mid-brain which is closer to the to the crossing approximately perpendicularly in between the temporal horn of the lateral ventricle to the fourth ventricle which (the fourth ventricle) continues on to the central canal of the spinal cord.

C. Four fluids existed in the body: blood, yellow bile black bile and phlegm.
D. Two types of blood flowed through the veins and arteries.
Answer:
A) The same blood flowed through the veins and arteries.
Explanation:
William Harvey (1578-1657) was a British physician that lived from 1578 to 1657. He studied medicine at Padua, Italy, and became Royal Physician for kings James I and Charles I.
He was the first person to correctly describe how the human body's circulatory system works. He described how the heart, veins and arteries form one single complete circuit that extends through the whole human body.
Answer:
The correct answer is D.
Explanation:
The first person to correctly articulate with proof, how the blood circulates the body was William Harvey.
Besides proving that it's the same blood that flows through the veins and arteries, he also showed that Arteries transport oxygenated blood from the heart to the whole body, after the blood has exchanged oxygen for carbon dioxide, the Veins carries the blood without oxygen back to the heart from where it goes to the lungs for more oxygen.

VLDL
Creatinie
Answer:
Creatine
Explanation:
A typical lipid profile includes the following tests:
High density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) - “ good cholesterol”

LDL/HDL Ratio (calculated values)
Triglycerides.
Very low density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C)
So Creatine isn't included
Hope this helps...
Answer:
