Answer:

Moose is the largest and heaviest species of deer found in mainly Alaska, Canada, some parts of the United States. They are herbivores and feed on leaves, grass, bark, shrubs, and fruits.

Aquatic plants are a great source of protein and salt which is not found in an appropriate amount in leaves of trees but it is important for moss for its growth, therefore, aquatic plants are one of the essential parts of moose diet.

Aquatic plants also have minerals like iron, phosphorus, sulfur, iron, calcium and it also contains crude fibers that attract moose because of its rich nutritional quality.  

Therefore to obtain salt and these variety of nutrients moose spend some time eating aquatic plants which are not present in leaves of deciduous trees.

You have just delivered a premature baby. Your assessment reveals that he is breathing adequately; however, his heart rate is 90
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

The answer is letter B, keep him warm and ventilate with BVM.

Explanation:

In order to know more about the answer, let's check out the meaning of "Premature Baby" first.

Premature Baby- a baby born through premature birth <em>(fewer than 37 weeks).</em>  Babies are normally born at the usual <em>40 weeks.</em> Health problems may occur with premature babies, thus it is very important to monitor them.  

In the situation above, the premature baby's heart rate is only 90 beats/min. <em>A resting heart rate for a newborn infant is 130-150 beats per minute. </em>This means that the baby above has a slow heart rate. In order to increase the hear rate, it is important to keep the baby warm and to ventilate with a "Bag Valve Mask" (BVM). <u><em>An increase in internal temperature increases the heart rate. Increasing ventilation will also help increase the heart rate. </em></u>

<u><em>Remember: </em></u>Inhalation increases the heart rate.

What is the grizzly bear?

The grizzly bear is a North American subspecies of the brown bear. Grizzlies are typically brown, though their fur can appear to be white-tipped, or grizzled, lending them their name. Grizzly bears are protected by law in the continental United States—not in Alaska—though there have been some controversial attempts to remove those protections in recent years.
