More details;

Based on victim surveys, about 16 percent of women and 5 percent of men in the United States reported having been stalked at some point in their lives.

The legal definition varies, but stalking is usually defined as “repeated unwanted behaviors that reasonably cause the individual who is being stalked to experience fear of harm or death to self, family, or household,” but many stalkers are careful enough to avoid breaking laws.

Even though the majority of stalkers are men, an estimated 12 to 22 percent are women, although the motivation often varies according to the intended target.

According to the research of Paul E. Mullen and his colleagues, there are five types of stalkers, although there can be considerable overlap among the different categories.

Firstly, Rejected stalkers who are seeking revenge following a perceived rejection (real or imagined).

Secondly, Intimacy-seeking stalkers who are seeking to form a close relationship with their intended target.

Thirdly, Incompetent stalkers lack basic social skills and often engage in stalking behaviour in the hope of becoming intimate with their target.

Fourthly, Resentful stalkers are revenge-seekers who feel they have been somehow wrong ed by their target. They are often prone to paranoid ideation that is difficult to treat.

Further, Predatory stalkers seek power and control over their targets and are most likely to intimidate their victims. These are the stalkers most likely to be charge d for their offenses.

Cystic fibrosis genetic disease caused by mutations

This is an assignment that discusses the Cystic fibrosis genetic disease. This is a genetic mutational disease in the CFTR gene. Additionally, the paper identifies the other drugs that are related in the disease.

Cystic fibrosis genetic disease caused by mutational disease in the CFTR gene

Firstly, Cystic fibrosis is genetic disease brought about by mutations in the CFTR gene. The consequence of this is production of an abnormal transmembrane protein that is responsible for producing sweat, mucus, and digestive fluids. Explain in depth the correlation between the defective gene and the abnormal protein production. Be sure to mention the process involved in protein production, whether or not those process(s) have properly occurred, and their end products.

Secondly,  A depressed person attempts to commit suicide by taking a whole bottle of sleeping pills. The pills cause a drastic decrease in the pH. The patient starts having breathing difficulties because the thick and thin filaments within the respiratory muscles are breaking down. Explain in depth the correlation between the person’s pH and why their respiratory muscles are breaking down.

Thirdly, Phenytoin (sodium channel blocker) and ethosuximide (calcium channel blocker) are anti-seizure drugs that stop seizures from happening. These drugs work by inhibiting electrical impulses (action potentials) from occurring. Explain the importance of sodium and calcium channels on a neuron and and the reasons why action potentials do not occur when these channels are inhibited. Additionally, be sure to include the phases of an action potential, the channels involved, and the importance of an action potential.

Fourthly,  A newborn exhibits signs of respiratory distress due to the lack of surfactant. She has signs of low oxygen and high carbon dioxide. Explain why the lack of surfactant would result in respiratory distress. Furthermore, what type of acid-base disorder might she develop and how would her body compensate.
