A) moves substances across the cell membrane
Answer:
Because if the 4-year-old child passes out from holding his breath, he will immediately begin breathing again, keeping him alive.
Answer:
By panting or breathing heavily.
Explanation:
<em>An ectothermic animal is one whose body temperature depends on the temperature of the external environment.</em>
The body of ectotherms regulates temperature depending on the temperature of the external environment where such animal finds itself.
Hence, when the temperature of the external environment rises as a result of hot air, the body of an ectotherm (that is homeothermic, that is, maintain a relatively constant body temperature irrespective of the temperature of the external environment) will adjust so as to keep its temperature relatively constant.
Dogs generally pant (breathe heavily) to bring their body temperature back to normal whenever it rises beyond normal due to rigorous physical activities or high external temperature.
<em>Hence, a fox will most likely pant in response to hot air temperature just like dogs.</em>
The nurse should ensure that the absorption of the child
into his body would be reduced. The nurse should also increase the elimination
or excretion of the toxic being taken by the child and he should provide the
supportive care.
