Distress has several important impacts on homeostasis of calcium, which would include:
Group of answer choices
Reduced uptake of calcium from the intestines, even if Vitamin D was high
Reduced blood flow through the kidneys and thus less ability for PTH to stimulate activation of Vitamin D
Reduced blood flow through the skin and thus reduced ability to activate Vitamin D within the skin
Reduced ability for PTH to bind to its receptors on osteoclasts, and thus decreased ability to liberate calcium from bones

Huntington chorea is an inherited disorder, with children of a parent with the disorder having a 50% chance of developing the disease. An individual with the disease usually does not manifest symptoms until he or she is between 30 and 45 years of age. The disease then progresses to death over the next 10 to 15 years. If a child of an affected parent has not developed symptoms by the age of 45, it is not likely that the symptoms will ever develop.
Discuss your thinking process when deciding whether you would or would not choose to have the testing to know if you will develop Huntington chorea.
Circle the false statement about fibromyalgia: (a) It is a chronic pain syndrome. (b) Its cause is unknown. (c) It mostly affects women. (d) It is a sex-linked recessive disease.

Now that he is 70 years old, arthritis in his hips and knees limits his mobility and he is not as active as he used to be. Over the past three decades, he has gained 40 pounds, his waist circumference is now 45 inches, and his body fat percentage is 33%.

Question 36 options: a) Weight (obesity), water (less sugar sweetened beverages), and walking (increase) b) Drinks (alcohol consumption), dreams (sleep patterns) and drama (stress) c) Feet (physical activity), forks (eating patterns), and fingers (smoking) d) Activity (increase), aging (decrease) and adequacy (nutritional intakearrow_forwardYour patient is a 2-year-old male named Justin. He is suffering from hypotonia (decreased muscle tone), weakness and growth failure, and is unable to walk. His mother has just brought him into the emergency room from the family beach house, where they have been spending the summer, because he has had a seizure. X-rays indicate that the toddler is suffering from rickets, which is a result of a nutritional deficiency of Vitamin D. But his mother insists that her son’s diet is not Vitamin D-deficient. He drinks three glasses of milk a day, and his diet also includes meat and eggs. A simplified scheme of Vitamin D metabolism is shown to the left. The chemical name of active Vitamin D is 1α, 25-dihydroxycholecalciferol, and it is synthesized via the pathway shown. Catalysts, both in the form of enzymes and ultraviolet light, are required for Vitamin D synthesis. The two main sources of active Vitamin D are diet and sunlight. Food supplemented with “Vitamin D” usually contains…arrow_forwardWhich pediatric growth chart is used to monitor the growth patterns of children under two years old?
