The complication that the nurse will most probably anticipate is severe bleeding and thrombus formation. Venous thromboembolism is a condition that involves the formation of blood clots. These blood clots could dangerously travel to the lungs and block some of the blood supply. Warfarin is a drug prescribed as an anticoagulant since it causes the blood to be thinner. It has been proven that warfarin can interact with some herbal medications. Depending on the type of herbal medications, this interaction can inhibit and enhance warfarin's action. In the case of enhancement, severe bleeding could occur, while inhibition of warfarin's action could lead to thrombosis (formation of blood clots).

To prevent this, farmers use some methods.

One is the usage of heaters, not allowing the freeze to set.

Another one is to spray the crop with water before the predicted overnight freeze. When water freezes and turns into ice, it releases latent heat. Then, the ice that builds upon the plant will insulate it from the colder surrounding air temperatures.

What is the main difference between weather and climate?
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer: Option B) The length of time over which the conditions are measured

Explanation:

Weather is the atmospheric condition of a given area over a short period of time, usually days to several months

Climate, on the other hand, is the atmospheric condition of a given area over a long period of time, usually over 2 years.

Thus, weather and climate differ based on the length of time over which the conditions are measured.
