Hello! If this takes place, then the EMT probably did not use the correct method. They should tilt the head while keeping the chin up. This prevents them from being able to gag. You would not want to change the oxygen flow because that one was probably correct for their situation. So just remove<span> the air supply and follow the head tilt-chin lift procedure.

I hope this helped!

I am, yours most sincerely,

Neurons have special proteins in their cell membranes that allow them to generate electric current. Are these proteins most like
V125BC [204]

Answer:

Sodium-Potassium pumps (proteins that help neurons generate electricity) are produced by ribosomes on the rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

Explanation:

Sodium-Potassium Pump (NA+/K+):

The Na+/K+ Pump is a transmembrane channel protein, responsible for maintaining the concentration gradient of sodium and potassium ions in the intra and extracellular environment. This is achieve by pumping 3 Na+ outside and 2 K+ inside the cell at the cost of one ATP. In neurons, these channels help in generating an action potential across the cell membrane that gives rise to a nerve impulse.

Production of Transmembrane proteins:

All membranes and their proteins are produced by  the ribosomes on the rough ER. The rough endoplasmic reticulum contains the enzymes required for lipid synthesis; and as cell membranes are made of lipids, the ER is the most suitable location for synthesis. Membrane proteins, particularly, transmembrane proteins like the Na+/K+ pump possess hydrophobic surfaces that don't dissolve in the cytoplasm but readily attach to the ER surface from where they can be transported wherever required.

Dimas [21]

Answer:

muscle cells will  become paralyzed when there is a lack of acetylcholine

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that in this scenario the muscle cells will  become paralyzed when there is a lack of acetylcholine. That is because the Acetylcholine (ACh) is an organic chemical within the brain and body that acts as a neurotransmitter to send signals from the brain to the muscle cells. Without those signals the muscle cells cannot respond and are therefore paralyzed.

The population would decrease I believe because that means that if there is more organism that an environment can handle that means there won't be enough resources for all of the organism like food that means the population will slowly die off.
