Answer:
Use a head tilt (tilting the head backward) and chin lift to prevent the tongue from obstructing the upper airway, and look for the foreign body that is causing the obstruction.

Explanation.
The backward head tilt and chin lift will prevent the tongue from obstructing airflow.
If the foreign object can be seen and removed, do so. Usually, it is not wise to use the fingers unless the foreign object is visible and accessible.

How did land whales eventually became aquatic?
cluponka [151]

Explanation:

To swim, they move their tails up and down, rather than back and forth as fishes do. This is because whales evolved from walking land mammals whose backbones did not naturally bend side to side, but up and down. ... Whales do the same thing as they swim, showing their ancient terrestrial heritage.

Cetaceans are fully aquatic marine mammals belonging to the order Artiodactyla, and branched off from other artiodactyls around 50 mya (million years ago). Cetaceans are thought to have evolved during the Eocene or earlier, sharing a closest common ancestor with hippopotamuses.
