Answer:

This position is incorrect. The woman should be standing.

Explanation:

To perform Heimlich's maneuver both you and the choking person must be on their feet. You should start the maneuver by hugging the person around the waist, making fists between

the ribs and the abdomen. Pull the person up and toward you quickly and vigorously

However, there may be a situation where the choking person may lose consciousness and not be able to stand up. If the person can no longer stand, the maneuver can be applied while sitting or lying down, but the efficiency is reduced and the choking person will be more difficult to help.

This prompts your pancreas to release <u>glucagon</u> to stimulate breakdown of glycogen in the liver into glucose.

<h3>WHAT IS THE ROLE OF GLUCAGON?</h3>

Glucagon is responsible for breaking down glycogen and releasing glucose, when the body is hypoglycemic, between meals, to maintain the glucose level and provide energy to the cells. This is what we call glycogenolysis.

With this information, we can conclude that starvation causes your pancreas to release glucagon to stimulate the breakdown of glycogen in the liver into glucose.
