<span>The nurse should report the arterial oxygen level if it is below 50. Respiratory distress may be secondary to the initial diagnosis of acute pancreatitis and could indicate Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome. The symptoms of ARDS may be confusion, agitation, hypoxemia, respiratory distress, crackling heard in the lungs, fever, tachypnea, dyspnea, and/or a dry cough.</span>

Why do your fingers look like prunes after swimming for a long time?
Alina [70]

Answer:

pruney fingers are caused by shrinking blood vessels. When you soak in water, your nervous system sends a message to your blood vessels to shrink. Your body responds by sending blood away from the area, and the loss of blood volume makes your vessels thinner.

Genetic engineering can be used to disrupt specific genes in the genome of an organism. Predict how the browning of apple slices
adell [148]

Answer: Fruit will not brown. Browning requires a functional enzyme.

Explanation:

Genetic engineering refers to the manipulation of an organism's genes. Scientists use a variety of molecular tools and techniques to cut up and join genetic material from different species and to introduce this new hybrid DNA into another organisms. <u>The overall goal is to add or remove an organism's genetic makeup for the better, or to transfer DNA code from one species into the other, in order to form new combinations or heritable genetic material.</u>

Enzymatic browning is a reaction that occurs in fruits which results in negative effects on characteristics such as taste, color, and nutritional value. This reaction is a caused by phenolic compounds' oxidation by an enzyme called polyphenol oxidase, which causes the generation of dark pigments. This is often seen in apples which are rich in this enzymes and susceptible to this enzymatic browning.

If through genetic engineering, the gene encoding the enzyme responsible for the apple browing is removed, then this enzyme cannot be produced by the apple. Consequently, apples will not brown<u>,</u> because there will not be a polyphenol oxidase that oxidates the phenolic compounds.
