The nurse should anticipate that the client is experiencing Heart failure.  It causes shortness of breath (dyspnea), fatigue, jugular vein distention and a third heart sound (S3) experienced by the client. The symptoms results from the reduced ability of the heart to pump blood due to the improper functioning of the myogenic heart muscles and increased fluid volume.

The nurse should anticipate that the client has a heart failure, which causes the shortness of breath, jugular vein distention and fatigue that the client is experiencing. <span>The sound of S3 is lower in pitch than the normal sounds of the heart.</span> The presence of the third heart sound occurs soon after the normal two <span>"lub-dub" heart sounds. This is caused by the oscillation of blood back and forth between the walls of the ventricles originated by the inflow of blood from the atria. Furthermore, S3 may be normal to individual under 40 years of age and to some trained athletes but should vanish before middle age. </span>

Explain why is it not possible for human muscles to continue working for extended periods of time without oxygen. (2 points)
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Glycolysis occurs in muscle cells during high-intensity training without oxygen, producing energy quickly. This process also produces lactic acid, which is the reason why your muscles get so tired after the energy burst.

What outcome would this have on plants and animals
gavmur [86]

Answer:

All plants and animals on earth engage in a process called respiration. Respiration combines oxygen and the food created during photosynthesis to produce usable energy. One of the byproducts of respiration is CO2, this is the opposite of photosynthesis. It is not unusual for plants to stop taking in carbon dioxide to uptake small amounts of oxygen at night.

In the event that plants cease to take up CO2 all together, they will cease to convert sunlight into carbohydrates, and die. The death of autotrophs would lead to a chain reaction of the death of all higher order organisms. Mankind could survive on food stuffs on hand, but only for a very short time. It has been said that any western society, its members are just 3 meals away from revolution.

Social order would be completely lost during the initial food riots. Once the processed and packaged food supply is exhausted, it would be the law of the dying jungle. The strong and well armed would take from the weak and ill prepared. Livestock and game would be slaughtered as the next to the last food source disappeared. The shear volume of death would foul the water spreading pestilence and disease. In one or two years bands of humans would prey on other humans as they degenerate into cannibalism. There could be a few humans in protected bunkers and hideaways, but they too would eventually succumb to starvation or despair as the world died.

The fact that plants stopped converting CO2 into O2 would be of little consequence. Man would die of hunger 1000 years before oxygen was ever an issue.
