Who Represents Me? All residents of North Carolina are represented in the United States Senate by both Senators Richard Burr and Thom Tillis. Representation in the NC House, the NC Senate, and the US House is determined by district. Each resident of the state has one representative in each of those legislative bodies, determined by the district in which their residence falls.
In medicine, a prosthesis (plural: prostheses; from Ancient Greek prosthesis, addition, application, attachment) is an artificial device that replaces a missing body part, which may be lost through trauma, disease, or congenital conditions.
Hooks can cost only a few hundred dollars, but are limited functionally. Cosmetic prosthetic hands resemble the real thing, but are about as functional as a mannequin's hand. Electric models offer the best of both worlds, but are often prohibitively expensive. The hand, plus surgery to attach, can cost up to $60,000.
