Chapter 18, Problem 20CONQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
Whether mutations occur randomly or not.
Introduction:
Mutation is the change in the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) sequence of the genome of an organism, extracellular chromosome, or virus. These mutations can be inherited by the offspring from its parents or they occur during the life span of an individual. These mutations may have a positive effect, a negative effect, or no effect on a gene and its expression.

Find the dental formula and enter it in the following format:
I3/3 C1/1 P4/4 M2/3 = 42 (this is not the correct number, just the correct format)
Please be aware: the upper jaw is intact (all teeth are present). The bottom jaw/mandible is not intact. The front teeth should include 6 total rectangular teeth (3 on each side) and 2 total large triangular teeth (1 on each side).

Goal 1: To alleviate the client's overall level, frequency, and intensity of anxiety and PTSD symptoms so that daily functioning remains unimpaired. Objective 1: The client will learn and regularly use at least two anxieties management techniques to reduce anxiety symptoms to less than three episodes per week. Intervention 1: The therapist will provide psychoeducation about anxiety and PTSD, including their symptoms and triggers. The therapist will also teach and assist the client in adopting relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing exercises and progressive muscle relaxation, to better manage anxiety and lessen PTSD symptoms.arrow_forward
