Hey there,
Step 1: N<span>ever attempt to remove a patient from an electrical source unless the EMT is trained and equipped to do so.
Step 2: </span><span>Never touch a patient who is still in contact with the electrical source
Step 3: </span><span>Administer oxygen by nonrebreather mask at 15 lpm
Step 4: </span><span>Monitor the patient for cardiac arrest
Step 5: </span><span>Assess the patient for muscle tenderness with or without twitching and any seizure activity
Step 6: A</span><span>ssess for an entrance and exit burn injury
Step 7: T</span><span>ransport the patient as soon as possible.
Hope this helps :))

Answer:
The cell
Explanation:
<em>The smallest or most specific level of organization that all living organisms (including myself and my neighbors) have in common is </em><em>the cell.</em>
This is in accordance with the cell theory which has three basic components, including:
1. The cell is the basic unit of life
2. All living organisms are made up cells
3. Cells arose from pre-exsiting cells.
<u>Other levels of organisation include tissues which are group of cells specialized for a certain function, organs which are group of tissues serving similar function, and systems which are group of organs working together as a unit.</u>
Answer:
C. Constant supplies of freshwater are needed because body water is continually being lost.
Answer:
The correct answer is: <em>B. blood cells would be in a hypotonic solution, so water would rush into the cell causing it to expand and eventually burst</em>.
Explanation:
Cells have a certain solute concentration that produces an osmotic pressure of aproximately 300 mOsm. For that reason, IVs solutions must have a solute concentration which equals the cell osmotic pressure. That is usually acomplished by using an aqueous solution of NaCl 0.9% w/v or 5% w/v Glucose.
If an IV of pure water is administrated to a person, the blood cells will be in a hypotonic solution. That is, with a concentration lesser than the concentration inside the cells. Due to the difference in concentration, a net flow of water will be produced from the exterior to the cell interior. As the volume of the cell is increased, the cell membrane is damaged and eventually the cell will collapse.
