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>

Answer:

1. What is the relationship between body shape and the habitat where they are most commonly found?

2. What is the difference between toads having a thicker skin than frogs?  

Explanation:

<u>Toads and frogs are amphibians that belong to the same family, live in lakes, rivers and wetlands and have some similar characteristics</u>. Among their main differences are:

  • The skin of toads is rougher, drier and rougher. While frog skin is moist and smooth.
  • Frogs live in humid areas, although they can go out to dry land for food. Whereas toads can survive longer on the ground away from moisture, as they have greater water control in the body.
  • Frogs are characterized by long limbs that favor long hopping and swimming. On the other hand, toads have shorter legs.
  • Toads tend to be more rounded, muscular and stocky. Frogs tend to be more slender.
  • Most toads are poisonous. In contrast in frogs, not all species are poisonous.

Given these observations, two questions that may arise could be:

1. What is the relationship between body shape and the habitat where they are most commonly found? This is that frogs have longer legs which helps them to swim and that is why they are more commonly found in water. While toads have shorter legs that even allow them to burrow into the ground, they can survive longer on land.

2. What is the difference between toads having a thicker skin than frogs?  Toads have thicker and more impermeable skin than frogs, which allows them to live in drier places. Also, the blood of the toad is of higher osmotic concentration than water.
