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.

F the plankton contain 100,000 kcal of energy, about how much energy will the manta ray obtain from eating the starfish? 10 kcal
AveGali [126]

Answer:

100kcal

Explanation:

The law in energy transfer in the food chain is that only 10% of total energy is transferred.

The food chain between the plankton and starfish follows;

Plankton - Mussels and Oysters - Starfishes - Manta Ray

Plankton being the producer produces 100,000kcal

Mussels/Oysters get 10% of 100,000kcal= 10,000kcal.

Starfish gets 10% of 10,000kcal = 1,000kcal

Manta Ray being the final consumer of starfish gets 10% of 1,000kcal = 100kcal
