Food is digested, or broken down, so that the nutrients can be extracted for use by the body as it passes through the digestive system. If food wasn't digested you would not have energy required to run vital chemical reactions and eventually resulting death

Food has to be digested into smaller component nutrients that are then absorbed and used throughout your body. Calories in food provide your body with the energy it needs to complete vital processes such as cellular maintenance and reproduction, and respiration. also you might get fat and you die

You have just delivered a premature baby. Your assessment reveals that he is breathing adequately; however, his heart rate is 90

Answer:

The answer is letter B, keep him warm and ventilate with BVM.

Explanation:

In order to know more about the answer, let's check out the meaning of "Premature Baby" first.

Premature Baby- a baby born through premature birth (fewer than 37 weeks). Babies are normally born at the usual 40 weeks. Health problems may occur with premature babies, thus it is very important to monitor them.

In the situation above, the premature baby's heart rate is only 90 beats/min. A resting heart rate for a newborn infant is 130-150 beats per minute. This means that the baby above has a slow heart rate. In order to increase the hear rate, it is important to keep the baby warm and to ventilate with a "Bag Valve Mask" (BVM). An increase in internal temperature increases the heart rate. Increasing ventilation will also help increase the heart rate.

Remember: Inhalation increases the heart rate.
