Question
Chapter 9, Problem 1CAQ2
Summary Introduction
To review:
Whether the statement “The oxygen percentage decreases as an individual ascends a mountain” is true or false.
Introduction:
The atmospheric pressure is also known as barometric pressure. There are certain events that regulate the breathing in individuals. The peripheral chemoreceptors get stimulated, initially, because of the increase in the elevation, which decreases the pressure of oxygen in the body.
Please refer to Clinical Application Case-1 for further information.

Although she attempted reduced weight, but she has gained instead 11.4 kilograms in the previous months. She also sleeps for 14-16 hours a day. Her movements were slothful, and she has slight enlargement of the neck area, coarse textured hair and dry skin. When her blood sample was analyzed it showed that the hormone T4 (thyroxin) levels were 3.2 micrograms/millilitre which is lower than the normal range, 4.2-11.2 micrograms/millilitre. In addition to this her TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) levels were high. In a power point presentation, per slide: 1. Determine the diagnosis for this case. 2. List signs and symptoms. 3. List possible causes of this case. 4. Identfify hormone involved and its origin and action. 5. Discuss possible treatment and prevention.arrow_forward1 2 a.b.c.d.e.f 3arrow_forward
