Answer:

The correct answer is cardiac tamponade.

Explanation:

Cardiac tamponade is the cause of the pericardial space being filled with liquid. This syndrome occurs in emergencies, as is the example of a stab penetrating wound and <u>if it is not treated urgently it can result in pulmonary edema, shock and even death. </u>

What happens in this case is that the pericardium receives a high pressure which causes that the pumping of blood it is not carried out correctly, and the heart is compressed decreasing the filling during diastole.

The most appropriate procedure to treat this type of emergency is a <u>pericardiocentesis </u>that allows <u>studying and draining the fluid lodged in the pericardium so that the pressure can decrease.</u>

arsen [322]

Answer:

osmolarity depends upon molarity.

glucose is a non-ionizing substance. it won't break down and will go as a whole.

osmolarity means the solute concentration of a solution.

here, the solvent is water.

therefore, 1 osmole = 1 mol

the ions of glucose after forming a solution (i) = 1

osmolarity = 1.5 M glucose × 1

                   = 1.5 osmoles of glucose.
