Answer:

The sandwich is the close representation of the fluid mosaic model which explains the structure of the plasma membrane.

Although the sandwich model is not completely correct, in the given options, the most closely related model is the sandwich model. The metal spring, swiss roll, and electric wire don't share many similarities to the fluid mosaic model.

Explanation:

According to the fluid mosaic model, the lipid bilayer membrane has embedded proteins that allow the transportation of molecules inside/outside the cell. The model was proposed by SJ Singer & G. L. Nicolson in 1972. Previously, it was believed that the structure of the cell membrane is closely related to a sandwich in which two protein layers embed the lipid bilayers. This model was proposed by Davson and Danielle.

The registered nurse is teaching a nursing student about care for a patient who is on oral warfarin therapy. Which statement mad
Paraphin [41]
<h2>1) option is correct </h2>

Explanation:

  • Bleeding from shaving cuts may be difficult to control, so the patient should be advised to use an electric razor only
  • Patients who are on oral anticoagulant medication have difficulty controlling bleeding from injuries or external hemorrhage
  • The nurse should teach the patient techniques such as the application of pressure to control bleeding
  • Dental extraction may cause bleeding, which may be uncontrollable for a patient who is on anticoagulant medication, so patients on such type of medication should inform the dentist before starting the treatment

1. Asexual- where exact copies of parent organism are formed, also only single parent is involved.

2. Sexual- Two parents of opposite sexes are involved, offsprings are not identical to parents. There is scope of variation in sexual reproduction.
