Multiple CHOICE!!?
2. C
Reply:A, D %26amp; D
Reply:I bet that this is homework for you. You don't want to do it. but here is number 1. b. 2. c. 3. c.
For number 3, just infer what pheromone means. All these are easy and I don't know a thing it means.
Reply:you could have looked these up on the internet.
1A-2B-3C
Reply:1 d
2 a
3 no idea
Reply:lol.. judging by the number of wrong answers given you might have been better off researching your homework yourself rather than asking it here.
1 A
2. A
3. C
if you want proof:
1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origin_of_b...
archaeopteryx. used to be a contender for the ancestor of birds, but there are good reasons to believe that archaeopteryx was a dead-end evolutionary product.
2. basic science. Everyone should know this.
3. elimination gives you C
Reply:1 is tricky... I'll go with A because B is the first known bird, while A is where they evolved from.
2 - B
3 - C (which you can just eliminate all the other choices cause headbutting has nothing to do with pheromones.)

Alesse-28 Oral Uses
This combination hormone medication is used to prevent pregnancy. It contains 2 hormones, a progestin and an estrogen. These hormones prevent pregnancy by preventing the release of an egg (ovulation). They also change the womb and cervical mucus, making it more difficult for an egg to meet sperm (fertilization) or for the fertilized egg to attach to the wall of the womb (implantation).
Besides preventing pregnancy, birth control pills have been shown to help make your periods more regular, decrease blood loss and painful periods (dysmenorrhea), and decrease your risk of ovarian cysts.
Use of this medication does not protect you or your partner against sexually transmitted diseases (e.g., HIV, gonorrhea, chlamydia).
How to use Alesse-28 Oral
Read the Patient Information Leaflet provided by your pharmacist before you start using this product and each time you get a refill. The leaflet contains very important information on when to take your pills and what to do if you miss a dose. If you have any questions, consult your doctor or pharmacist.
Take this medication by mouth once daily or as directed by your doctor. Pick a time of day that is easy for you to remember, and take your pill at the same time each day.
It is very important to continue taking this medication exactly as prescribed by your doctor. With certain brands of birth control pills, the amount of estrogen and progestin in each active tablet will vary at different times in the cycle. Therefore, it is very important that you follow the package instructions to find the first tablet, start with the first tablet in the pack, and take them in the correct order. Do not skip any doses. Pregnancy is more likely if you miss pills, start a new pack late, or take your pill at a different time of the day than usual.
Taking this medication after your evening meal or at bedtime may help if you have stomach upset or nausea with the medication. You may choose to take this medication at another time of day that is easier for you to remember. No matter what dosing schedule you use, it is very important that you take this medication at the same time each day, 24 hours apart. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions.
Your pill pack contains 21 pills with active medication. It may also contain 7 reminder pills with no medication. Take one active pill (with hormones) once daily for 21 days in a row. If you are using a product with 28 tablets, take an inactive pill once daily for 7 days in a row after you have taken the last active pill unless otherwise directed by your doctor. If you are using a product with 21 tablets, do not take any tablets for 7 days unless otherwise directed by your doctor. You should have your period during the fourth week of the cycle. After you have taken the last inactive tablet in the pack or gone 7 days without taking an active tablet, start a new pack the next day whether or not you have your period. If you do not get your period, consult your doctor.
If this is the first time you are using this medication and you are not switching from another form of hormonal birth control (e.g., patch, other birth control pills), take the first tablet in the pack on the first Sunday following the beginning of your menstrual period or on the first day of your period. If your period begins on a Sunday, begin taking this medication on that day. For the first cycle of use only, use an additional form of non-hormonal birth control (e.g., condoms, spermicide) for the first 7 days to prevent pregnancy until the medication has enough time to work. If you start on the first day of your period, you do not need to use back-up birth control the first week.
Ask your doctor or pharmacist for information about how to switch from other forms of hormonal birth control (e.g., patch, other birth control pills) to this product. If any of this information is unclear, consult the Patient Information Leaflet or your doctor or pharmacist.
Smoking cigarettes/using tobacco while using hormonal birth control (pill/patch/ring) increases your risk of heart problems and stroke. Do not smoke. The risk of heart problems increases with age (especially in women over 35) and with frequent smoking (15 or more cigarettes a day).
Reply:You say you've had 2 periods since then?...You cannot have periods when you are pregnant, so you must not be.
I think all pills are pretty much 99.9% affective, but there is still that chance that next time, you could get pregnant, so please, please be really careful, okay?
If you ever need to be sure, buy the at home pregnancy tests.
Reply:if you've had your period, you are not pregnant. but if you want more proof, you can always buy a pregnancy test to reassure yourself
Reply:A low dose birth control pill is just what it sounds like: a smaller dosage than had been used in earlier products. Presumably, if your doctor prescribed it, it should do the job. If you have had two periods since last intercourse, you are not pregnant, and with the double protection of condoms and pills it is extremely unlikely that you would become so.

MGIB rates in regards to U.S. military veterans?
Here goes.
I was active duty Air Force from 2002-2006. I was wondering, while the MGIB rates and such fluctuate, am I entitled only to the rate I guess I must've separated with (the October 2005 rate) or does the most current rate apply to any veteran, regardless of what month/year they separated?
Also, since I've separated, I should be looking at the "Basic Institutional Rates for persons with remaining entitlement under Chapter 34 of Title 38, U.S.C. Chapter 30 Category II rates effective 10-01-2005" on the https://www.gibill.va.gov site, right? I'm not so sure myself!
Lastly, could anyone tell me what rate I should be looking at if I were planning on enrolling into an online college sort of thing? Both for an actual degree and for just regular courses?
Thanks in advance for the help!
MGIB rates in regards to U.S. military veterans?
You get the payment rate that is posted on the VA site you have. Your entitled to the current rate, it's not based on when you separated.
Full time
$1,101.00
3/4 time
$825.75
1/2 time
$550.50
less than 1/2 time more than 1/4 time
$550.50**
1/4 time or less
$275.25 **
Oh and if you are 30% + disabled you are also entitled to Vocational Rehab. The program pay full tuition and cost and they also give you a monthly living allowance depending on your student status (full-time or 1/4 time). You should really speak to your Veterans Representative at the school you are planning on attending. They'll give you all the information you need. If they are of no help than contact a Vet Center or the VA.

Hepatitis question?
If a person has, for example, hepatitis B, can he/she take the hepatitis A or C immunization shot? Will it be effective?
Hepatitis question?
I dont think A+C=B
Reply:there is no vaccine for hepatitis c.
if a person has hepatitis c and is thinking about a hepatitis b vaccine, only about 48 percent of those under these circumstances will develop antibodies against hepatitis b-scientist are not quite sure why this happens.
i had hcv from age of 8 (if not longer) until the age of 34. i responded to antiviral chemotherapy.
i refuse the vaccine for hepatitis b and a.
of course i am not high risk for hepatitis b and hepatitis a-i will take my chances.
as for being infected with hepatitis b and getting the hepa vaccine? ask your doctor, only he knows what he feels would be best for his individual patients, sometimes there are issues related to having hepatitis b that may just interfere with developing antibodies for hep a.
good luck!
Reply:You can be vaccinated for hep A and it will be effective for the hep A virus. There is currently no vaccine for hep C although there is one in development with ongoing clinical trials.
Reply:In the USA there is only Hep A and Hep B immunization and others under research/studies.
If a person has hepatitis B, they can take the hepatitis A immunization. Each different immunization protects for a certain type of hepatitis virus.
The USA is still working on the hepatitis C immunization; however while working at Madigan Army Medical Center. I had military egyptian officer/Immunologist come to train in my department of pathology. He told me that Egypt has many people with the Hepatitis C Virus. He also told me that they do have a vaccine to prevent it. I believed him.
HCV belongs to the genus Hepacivirus in the family Flaviviridae. There are 6 HCV genotypes and more than 100 subtypes. There are more details below....
Reply:Yes, you can get the vaccine for Hepatitis A and will it prevent that disease even if you already have Hep B. There is no immunization for hep C.
Reply:there is no immunization shot for hepatitis C..if you fall into the risk category you should ASK to be tested!
Have you.........
received a blood transfusion before 1992?
ever shared drug paraphernalia (included straws even once)?
ever been stuck by a used blood needle?
been on kidney dialysis?
had a tattoo or body piercing?
had sexual activity that involves contact with blood
shared personal care items (razors, toothbrushes,etc) with other people?
have or had acrylic nails?
If you answered YES to any of these questions you may have been exposed to the hepatitis C virus.
Get Tested!
Hepatitis C is four times more prevalent in the US than HIV
Reply:No, each strand of hepatitis has a different 'make up'. An immunization is only for a specialized disease or illness. You wouldn't give a tetanus shot for someone that has chicken pox or measles. It just won't work that way.
Good luck finding what you need
FYI: there are 5 strands of hepatitis, weird huh
Reply:It would be wise to take the shots. Hep A, B %26amp; C are all different strains.
