The correct option is B.
Having short breath and sharp pains in the chest are indications of cardiac distress and it indicate that the heart is been exerted upon. The first thing the nurse should do is to ask the patient to sit down in order to reduce the exertion force on the heart. Resting will allow the patient to become stabilized, the nurse can then check the patient's need for oxygen application.

Process by which plants become fertilized without water; animals help
sergeinik [125]
Animals such as bees or wind can carry pollen from one flower to another flower and fertilize the plant that way. Plants can also self-pollinate which happens when a plant’s own pollen fertilizes its own ovules.

True or false? cell death normally does not occur unless there has been an injury to the cell.
Evgen [1.6K]

The statement 'cell death normally does not occur unless there has been an injury to the cell' is false.

A cell can be described as the basic building block of life. All living organisms are known to be made of cells.

There are various reasons that a cell might die. A cell might die when its function is over. A cell might also die for the formation of other structures in the body. For example, the formation of an outer layer of the skin requires dead cells. A cell might kill itself if it has no use or finds that it has been invaded by an antigen.

Hence, the statement that cell death occurs only due to injury is false as cell death can occur due to various other reasons.
