You must obtain consent before performing the Heimlich maneuver on a conscious adult. This statement is false.

<h3>What is Heimlich maneuver?</h3>
  • To conduct the Heimlich maneuver (abdominal thrusts) on another person:
  1. Put yourself in their rear. For balance, place one foot just in front of the other. Arm yourself at the waist. Lean the individual slightly forward. Get on your knees behind the youngster if they are choking.
  2. A fist should be made. It should be placed just above the person's navel.
  3. Use the other hand to hold the fist. As though trying to hoist the individual up, quickly thrust upward while pressing firmly into the abdomen.
  4. Up to 10 abdominal thrusts should be performed to free the obstruction. Perform routine cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) with chest compressions and rescue breaths if the victim becomes unconscious.

Why do hydrogen bonds rely on polar and covalent bonds
Yuki888 [10]

Hydrogen bonds rely on polar and covalent bonds because the hydrogen will have a very slight positive proton charge because of the negative electrons being pulled more towards the other element. Because of this proton positive charge, the hydrogen will be attracted to other electronegative charges. This is information on a polar covalent bond. This explains why this is really reliable for hydrogen's usage.

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

The interaction between cellulose-digesting organism in the gut of a termite and the termite is +

Explanation:

This relationship that exists between termites and the organisms present in their gut that are capable of degrading cellulose is a relationship called mutualism. Mutualism is part of the biological interactions in which both organisms benefit from the coexistence of both. For this reason this relationship would be positive.

The food of termites is wood, but they cannot produce the enzymes they would need for degradation of the wood. Thanks to this, there are small organisms called protozoa that are found in the intestine of the termites that allow them to degrade the cellulose present in the wood, these organisms help them to degrade the cellulose that by themselves they could not do since termites do not contain the cellulose enzymes responsible for cellulose degradation .In this way TERMITES can get what they need to perform its metabolism and biological functions.
