<span>In this case, the nurse would believe that the patient was experiencing Tension pneumothorax. Tension pneumothorax is the build up of air over time in a pleura space. It is generally caused by a laceration in the lung which lets air pass into the pleura space but then get stuck there. It presents a pressure which makes ventilation difficult, it cause the same effects as a one way valve.</span>

A virus<span> is a small </span>infectious agent<span> that </span>replicates<span> only inside the living </span>cells<span> of other </span>organisms<span>. Viruses can infect all types of </span>life forms<span>, from </span>animals<span> and </span>plants<span> to </span>microorganisms<span>, including </span>bacteria<span> and </span><span>archaea
</span>While not inside an infected cell or in the process of infecting a cell, viruses exist in the form of independent particles. These viral particles<span>, also known as </span>virions<span>, consist of two or three parts: (i) the </span>genetic material<span> made from either </span>DNA<span> or </span>RNA<span>, long </span>molecules<span> that carry genetic information; (ii) a </span>protein<span> coat, called the </span>capsid<span>, which surrounds and protects the genetic material; and in some cases (iii) an </span>envelope<span> of </span>lipids<span> that surrounds the protein coat when they are outside a cell. The shapes of these virus particles range from simple </span>helical<span> and </span>icosahedral<span> forms for some virus species to more complex structures for others. Most virus species have virions that are too small to be seen with an </span>optical microscope<span>. The average virion is about one one-hundredth the size of the average </span>bacterium<span>.</span>

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Names are universal

Explanation:

Current naming system that is followed all over the world is called binomial nomenclature. There are many significant and useful features of this classification system however one of the most important feature is the universality of the name.

The scientific names of organism are usually Latin derived and composed of two  parts  among which first is genus name and second is specie name.

For example<u>: Rosa indica</u> is the scientific name of Rose and it is same all over the world. Unlike common names we dont have to search for name to make others understand which flower we are talking about because if we know scientific name anyone can understand it.

Hope it help!
