Accepted Answer

Thick skin.: The skin covering the soles of your feet is the thickest on your entire body; and it thickens even more if you use your feet a lot, such as run marathons. The thick skin protects the underlying structures from damage. There is also a layer of fat below the skin that acts as a cushion.

Accepted Answer

Do not have: the ultrasound report. The CT report is concerning and suggest there is a complex structure in the right area of the ovary and note that this need further followup.  Will probably need laparoscopy as soon as this can be done.  This is suggestive of  number of things. To go into detail is inappropriate and needs to be discussed with your doc. Best wishes.

Question 8

could you please describe the structure of the mature ovary?

Accepted Answer

Atrophic: at 52 years old it is likely that your ovaries are reaching menopause if not already there, and so I would expect them to be fairly small, like a plump white raisin. as you reach menopause, it is unlikely for you to have any follicular cystic activity.

Question 9

could you please describe how hormone structure determines its function?

Accepted Answer

Hormone-Receptor: Hi. All hormones work by binding very specifically with high affinity to their cognate receptor. This is often describe as lock &amp; key; only one specific key will open a lock. The receptor has a binding pocket for the hormone, and the hormone's structure is what makes it have binding specificity for its receptor. Hormone binding to its receptor sends a signal to cell to regulate some function.

Endocardium: Endocardium: inner lining of the heart. Heart valves are made up of endocardium.
Myocardium: thick muscle mass in the middle of the heart. Function: electrical conductivity and contractility of the heart
pericardium or epicardium: outer protective fibrous layer.
