The correct chest compression depth is about 1½ inches. The correct rate of compressions is 100 to 120 per minute.

According to current basic life support recommendations, a compression depth of one third to one half of the anteroposterior chest diameter should be used for newborn and toddler resuscitation. A study was done to determine the actual compression depths in newborns and kids. 36 newborns (1 year old) and 38 kids (aged 1 to 8 years) had their chest computed tomography scans analyzed. Chest computed tomography scan measurements of the anteroposterior diameter were taken from the anterior skin perpendicular to the skin on the posterior thorax, either at the interni pple line or the center of the lower half of the sternum.

The mean age was 3.6 months for the newborn group (25 boys and 11 girls). The average age of the 21 boys and 17 girls in the child-age group was 4.0 years. When current criteria were followed, compression depths ranged from 3.4 to 5.1 cm for infants and 4.4 to 6.6 cm for children. The compression depths at the interni pple line compared to the lower half of the sternum were same. These 2 were found beneath intrathoracic structures that suggested similar compression landmarks. In comparison to the suggested compression depths for adults (3.8-5.1 cm).

How did slaves contribute to the economic success of the Southern Colonies?
NikAS [45]

If the Confederacy had been a separate nation, it would have ranked as the fourth richest in the world at the start of the Civil War. The slave economy had been very good to American prosperity. By the start of the war, the South was producing 75 percent of the world’s cotton and creating more millionaires per capita in the Mississippi River valley than anywhere in the nation. Slaves represented Southern planters’ most significant investment—and the bulk of their wealth

olasank [31]

In order to answer this question, I will use two different perspectives of ethics: the consequentialist perspective, and the deontological perspective.

Consequentialism argues that the morality of an action lies with its consequences. This means that an action with bad consequences is an immoral action, and vice versa. In this case, killing the last remaining Redwood would not have any negative consequence on any being in the world, as no one benefits from it anymore. This means that the act is not immoral.

A deontological perspective states that there are principles that should be taken as rules, and which govern what is right and what is wrong. Therefore, rules and duties are central. For example, a principle might state that "all life is valuable." As the Redwood falls under the definition of life, killing it would be considered an immoral action.
