In this given situation, we should stand behind him and administer abdominal thrusts.

<h3>Which part of the body should abdominal thrusts be administered?</h3>

Place the fist's thumb side against the person's stomach, just above the belly button and below the ribs. The muscle of the diaphragm can be felt. With the other hand over the fist, make a quick, powerful upward thrust into this muscle. Keep performing abdominal thrusts until the thing exits.

In order to remove things from the throat, the Heimlich maneuver employs abdominal thrusts. The diaphragm is a muscle that lies beneath the lungs. To assist the lungs in exhaling air, this muscle contracts. The Heimlich maneuver works by creating an artificial cough.

Here is how Lydia found the product 4/5 x 10. Use the model given to show that Lydia's answer is correct.
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer: Lydia's answer is correct.

Explanation:

The solution used by Lydia is:

4/5 × 10 = 4 × 1/5 × 10

= 4 × 10/5

= 4 × 2

= 8

The above solution by Lydia is correct.

Given the question, 4/5 × 10, this will be:

= 4/5 × 10/1

Let's multiply the numerator first, this will be: = 4 × 10 = 40

The denominator will be: = 5 × 1 = 5

Therefore, 4/5 × 10/1 = 40/5

Now when we divide 40 by 5, we will get 8. Therefore Lydia is correct.

alex41 [277]

Answer: Fibrous pericardium and Serous Pericardium

Fibrous pericardium

This layer is the most superficial layer which consists of dense connective tissue. This layer of the heart protects it from over filling of blood, anchors the heart to the surrounding wall.

Serous pericardium
