Answer:

Shoulder dystocia

Explanation:

  • If during the vaginal cephalic delivery, there is a requirement of additional obstetric maneuvers after the head of the fetus has been delivered however the gentle traction is failed then this condition is known as shoulder dystocia.
  • Shoulder dystocia occurs when the shoulder of the baby gets stuck in the pubic bone of the mother after the head has been delivered due to which the baby retracts his head back into the birth canal.
  • Gestational diabetes is one of the conditions that impose a risk on the baby to have shoulder dystocia during the delivery.
  • Since in the given question it is mentioned that the mother has gestational diabetes and the head has been delivered but seems to retract back, this points out that the condition suspected is shoulder dystocia.

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

from the intermembrane space to the matrix

Explanation:

In the electron transport chain (ETC), electrons flow from one protein complex to another. However, as this electrons are transfered, protons (H+) is built up from the intermembrane space of the mitochondria to the mitochondrial matrix.

Hence, according to this question, a proton gradient is formed when hydrogen ions (H+) are moving from the intermembrane space to the matrix of the mitochondrial.

How many new volumes would each new cell contain whenever a cell splits?
Elenna [48]
The specific volume will be different for various kinds of cells. The safe answer would be that the new cell will pretty much have the same volume as the one that it divided from. This is true for most eukaryotic cells unless other factors like epigenetics or mutations come into place.

One example of moments a cell would increase in volume is during hypertrophy. This simply means that the cell is increasing in size (compared to: hyperplasia -- which is an increase in number of the cells). Hypertrophy is definitely an increase in volume of the cell but this doesn't necessarily translate to cell division (i.e. just because the cell is big now, doesn't mean it will still be big when it divides).

Another moment of increasing volume of the cell and now also related to cell division would be during the two stages in the cell cycle (i.e., G1 and G2 phases). This is the growth phase of the cell preparing to divide. However when mitosis or division happens, the cells will normally end with the same volume as when it started.

This are safe generalizations referring to the human cells. It would help if a more specific kind of cell was given.
