Gnesinka [82]3 years ago

Typhitis, also called neutropenic enterocolitis, is an infection that often develops in cancer patients who undergo chemotherapy. In many cases, surgical intervention is required.

Without surgical intervention, the patient would be transferred to an ICU (Intensive Care Unit) for monitoring, and the nurse would perform some or all of these emergency actions:
1. Bowel rest and nasogastric suction,
2. Serial abdominal examinations,
3. Providing intravenous fluids, blood, and platelet transfusions when needed,
4. Using antibiotics to fight the infection, and obtaining cultures to determine if the antibiotic is working,
5. Not administering medication that could worsen the situation.

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

The acid in the lemon juice denatured the milk proteins.

Explanation:

The important biomolecule of the living organism is protein. Proteins are made of the repeating units of the alpha amino acids that are attached together through the peptide bond.

The proteins get denatured if they are subjected to the change in the temperature conditions or the additions of the chemicals. The addition of the lemon juice that acts as the acid coagulates the protein present in the milk and results in the clump formation.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a).
