High School GPA Averages. The overall average GPA nationally is a 3.0, but this may be deceptive. The average in core subject areas is actually a bit lower. The average GPA is brought up to a 3.0 by the higher grades that students receive in courses that are not part of the core curriculum. The core curriculum in the data that I looked at was considered to be math, science, English, and social studies courses.
Hyper- means 'above' or 'over.' It is used in terms such as hypergastric and hypercystic. Hyper- is used in these terms along with the word roots, gastr- for stomach and cyst- for bladder, to let you know that something is 'above the stomach' and 'above the bladder' respectively.
The English word ulcer means an area of tissue erosion. The term peptic ulcer literally means tissue erosion in the digestive system. A symptom is something the patient feels and reports, such as a stomachache, while a sign is something other people, including the doctor detect, such as a rash.hen a peptic ulcer affects the stomach it is called a gastric ulcer, one in the duodenum is called a duodenal ulcer, while an esophageal ulcer is an ulcer in the esophagus. When the lining of these organs is corroded by acidic digestive juices secreted by stomach cells peptic ulcers can form.
