Answer:

- First, place some gauze pads or a clean cloth on the wound and hold for 10 minutes.

- If the gauze or cloth becomes soaked with blood, without removing it, place another on top and continue pressing for another 10 minutes.

- If the blood does not stop flowing, place the wound raised upwards to avoid excessive bleeding.

While you call an Emergency Ambulance.  

Explanation:

Bleeding usually occurs from a cut or trauma that causes the blood vessels to break.

An arterial hemorrhage occurs when the outflow of blood comes from the circulatory system to the outside caused by the rupture of an artery.

Until the artery closes or the wound is cauterized, blood is likely to continue to flow until the person shows symptoms of confusion, slow heart rate, and shock that ultimately leaves the person to bleed to death.

Hey can someone help me with my essay. Should Athletes with Serious Concussions Receive Special Treatment in the Classroom?
raketka [301]
Personally I believe Athletes with serious concussion should get some special treatment. Getting a concussion is not fun. It can be very pain. Having a concussion can make it very hard to think. It also make you very sensitive to light. Giving them accommodations and giving the Athletes some special treatments will enable them to learn better.

When the client vacuums her floors for 20 min, what is the minimum amount of caloric energy she burns
Mekhanik [1.2K]

When the client vacuums her floors for 20 min, the minimum amount of caloric energy she burns is 80 calories. It depends on the weight of the person.

<h3>What is calorie burning?</h3>

The term calorie-burning refers to the calorie requirement for a given activity (either physical or mental activity).

Calorie burning largely depends on the physiological features of the individual and the time spend to carry out the activity.

For example, an activity of 20 minutes that requires 80 calories is due to the use of 4 cal per minute.

AfilCa [17]

“dorsal and ventral” are most commonly used. In the human, objects near the front are "anterior"; those near the rear are "posterior" – in the quadruped, these correspond respectively to "ventral" and "dorsal". On the limbs, an object closer to the main body is "proximal"; an object farther away is "distal"
