The edema in terms of either increase or a decrease in one of the four pressures that causes bulk flow with respect to four patients suffering from edema. (1) A patient named Mrs. Taylor is awaiting for liver transplant. The reason for the connection between liver failure and her edema. (2) The bulk flow pressures experienced by Mrs. So during premature labor shows edema in her legs. (3) A patient named Mr. Herrera is in anaphylactic shock with leaky capillaries, allowing plasma proteins that are normally kept inside the blood vessels to escape into the interstitial fluid. Determine the bulk flow pressures altered in this case and direction it the changes. 4) A patient named Mrs. O’Leary is recovering from breast cancer surgery and her right arm breast and all of her axillary lymph nodes were removed. Her right arm is quite edematous, Mrs. O’Leary is given a compression sleeve to wear on this arm to help relieve the edema. Determine the bulk flow pressure will be altered by the compression sleeve.

Summary Introduction

To analyze:

The edema in terms of either increase or a decrease in one of the four pressures that causes bulk flow with respect to four patients suffering from edema.

(1) A patient named Mrs. Taylor is awaiting for liver transplant. The reason for the connection between liver failure and her edema.

(2) The bulk flow pressures experienced by Mrs. So during premature labor shows edema in her legs.

(3) A patient named Mr. Herrera is in anaphylactic shock with leaky capillaries, allowing plasma proteins that are normally kept inside the blood vessels to escape into the interstitial fluid. Determine the bulk flow pressures altered in this case and direction it the changes.

4) A patient named Mrs. O’Leary is recovering from breast cancer surgery and her right arm breast and all of her axillary lymph nodes were removed. Her right arm is quite edematous, Mrs. O’Leary is given a compression sleeve to wear on this arm to help relieve the edema. Determine the bulk flow pressure will be altered by the compression sleeve.

After you feel comfortable with your counting method and identifying cells in the various stages of mitosis, use the four images below of whitefish blastula to count the cells in each stage until you reach 100 total cells, recording your data below in Data Table 1. (You may not need to use all four images. Stop counting when you reach 100 total cells.) After totaling the cells in each stage, calculate the percent of cells in each stage. (Divide total of stage by overall total of 100 and then multiply by 100 to obtain percentage.) Data Table 1Stage Totals PercentInterphase Mitosis: Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Cytokinesis Totals 100 100% To find the length of time whitefish blastula cells spend in each stage, multiply the percent (recorded as a decimal, in other words take the percent number and divide by 100) by 24 hours. (Example: If percent is 20%, then Time in Hours = .2 * 24 = 4.8) Record your data in Data…
