A breast cancer client has just learned that her tumor clinical stage is T3, N2, M0. After the physician leaves, the client asks the nurse to explain this to her again. The nurse will use which statement in his or her answer? Your:A) tumor is very small and has zero number of mitoses. B) tumor has metastasized to at least three distal sites and you have cancer in your lymph nodes. C) tumor is large and at least two lymph nodes are positive for cancer cells. D) extent of disease is unknown, but it looks like your cancer has stayed intact and not spread to the bloodstream.

C) tumor is large and at least two lymph nodes are positive for cancer cells.

Explanation

Tumor staging group client according to the extent and spread of the disease using the TNM system. TNM stands for tumor , node, metastasis. In the TNM system T1,T2,T3 and T4 describe tumor size. N0, N1, N2 and N3 describe the lymph node involvement. M0, M1 describes the absence or presence of metastasis.

The tumor clinical stage was given as T3, N2, M0.

This means the tumor is large( T3) and at least two lymph nodes(N2) are positive(M0) for cancer cells.

from my research i have to the conclusion that decomposers, such as fungi, bacteria and invertebrates, play a critical role in nutrient cycling and without them the earth's ecosystem may not support life as we know it. elements such as carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus exist in limited amounts on earth, although huge amounts of carbon are being released into the atmosphere from underground sources now by humans. it is still extremely important that other nutrients be retained by the process of re-use. decomposers are organisms that are able to chemically break down dead material and make these elements available for use by other organisms. without this breakdown of dead material, dead bodies would pile up. so decomposers also play a role in clean up also. without them, life might not continue as we know it and dead material would overwhelm the earth.
