The tracing of uterine activity measured with a solid-tipped intrauterine pressure catheter (IUPC) depicts no contractions. However, you are palpating contractions that are strong in intensity with a frequency of every 3 minutes and a duration of 60 seconds. A possible cause for this finding is (select an answer): The connections to the system are not connected.

An IUPC counts the number, length, and force of contractions. During palpations peaks of strong intensity is recored.As in this case IUPC seems to be not connected as its near impossible to get no contractions when palpation are high.

And one unit is the amount of pressure required to raise a mercury column by one millimetre. The intensity of the contraction is assessed from the baseline (when the uterus is relaxed) to the rise of the contraction and is recorded in units. According to studies, after spontaneous labour, 200 units of contractions per 10 minutes are typically sufficient for vaginal birth.

What in-group biases do you see around you? Explain
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The in-group bias is the tendency that people have to favor their own group above that of others. This bias can have a powerful influence on both individual and group behavior. It may be as simple as favoring your own sports team, or it can be something on a much larger scale, such as favoring people who share your race, ethnicity, religion, or nationality.

Describe respiration in frog and tadpole​
adell [148]

Answer:

Frog - The frog has three respiratory surfaces on its body that it uses to exchange gas with the surroundings: the skin, in the lungs and on the lining of the mouth. ... A frog may also breathe much like a human, by taking air in through their nostrils and down into their lungs.

Tadpole - Tadpoles open their mouths as they swim and take in water. As the mouth closes, muscles transfer the water to the gills. These consist of thin membranes called lamellae, which take oxygen from the water where it enters the blood stream through the process of diffusion.

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Aa, bb

Explanation:

Recall that this question calls our attention to the theory of evolution as postulated by Charles Darwin. Species that are well adapted to their environment are more likely to survive, reproduce and pass on these favourable characteristics to their offspring.

In this case, the coral reefs are pink and pink Isopod species with small bodies are likely to escape the predators. Hence the genetic combination Aa(pink body) and bb(small body) are more likely to survive and reproduce.
