Gatrectomy is a procedure that involves removal of a part of the stomach (partial gastrectomy) or the whole stomach (total gastrectomy). It is carried out to removal stomach cancer or stomach perforations. In this case, the nurses initial action will be first not to tamper with fresh surgery tubes and then call the primary health care provider for blood draining from the NG tube after the procedure (gastrectomy)

By the separation of the East African Rift, there were a difference among them.

Explanation:

Both Monkeys and Apes, have a common ancestor, in the late Oligocene, around 25 million years ago. But later, there were a branch in the East African Rift. This was a product of the crash of the Asian and Indian Continental plates, pushing the Tibetan Plateau. In an area that some day were flat, now some mountains, deep lakes and valleys appear. The new mountains, were a natural barrier for the sea wind, causing a dry weather and the lost of forest in this are. Since this is a topographical limits for some species, then the differentiation starts to Apes and Monkeys. One of the evidences is that the first hominids could develop the brain capacity, also the brain size.

List five proteins of the myofilaments and describe their physical arrangement
alex41 [277]

The five proteins of the myofilaments are the following:

<span>1.  </span>Myosin, shaped like a golf club, with two polypeptides intertwined to form a shaftlike tail and a double globular head, or cross-bridge, projecting from it at an angle.

<span>2. </span>Fibrous actin is like a bead necklace—a string of subunits called globular (G) actin. Each G actin has an active site that can bind to the head of a myosin molecule.

<span>3. </span>Tropomyosin. It blocks the active sites of six or seven G actins and prevents myosin cross-bridges from binding to them when a muscle fiber is relaxed.

<span>4. </span>Troponin a smaller calcium-binding protein bound to each tropomyosin molecule.

<span>5. </span>Titin (connectin), run through the core of a thick filament, emerge from the end of it, and connect it to a structure called the Z disc.

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

Water's high heat capacity is a property caused by hydrogen bonding among water molecules. When heat is absorbed, hydrogen bonds are broken and water molecules can move freely. When the temperature of water decreases, the hydrogen bonds are formed and release a considerable amount of energy.
