There are choices for this question namely:

a) "Exhale forcefully while the chest tube is being removed."
b) "While the chest tube is being removed, raise your arms above your head."
c) "During the removal of the chest tube, do not move because it will make the removal more painful."
<span>d) "When the tube is being removed, take a deep breath, exhale, and bear down."

The correct answer is "when the tube is being removed, take a deep breath, exhale, and bear down". This is called a Valsalva maneuver and this functions to prevent the air from leaking back to the pleural space and eventually prevent pneumothorax. After which, a clean, air tight, dressing shall be applied to the wound.</span>

Which statement best explains why the population stabilized and why?!
goldenfox [79]

Answer: C. The population size became limited due to factors such as availability of food.

Explanation:

Out of all the choices, C is the most likely to happen since more often then not, food runs out because a species has too many members. C is an example of the environment’s carrying capacity limiting the chipmunk species.

Since we are not told if the chipmunk population is really small, interbreeding may not happen. Predators hunt prey, not eat fruits like chipmunks do (I’m assuming what chipmunks eat.) If there was a predator species that came in, they would hunt the chipmunks instead of competing for the same resources. D just doesn’t make much sense in my opinion because that wouldn’t limit the chipmunk population.

They are also referred to as primary consumers because they directly feed on plants without any other nutritional option. They, therefore, occupy the second trophic level on a typical food web. </em>
