An ultrasound can produce the image of a fetus by using waves that are labeled as "ultrasound waves" or in ultrasonic frequency.

This may seem like an odd concept but you should note that everything we see and hear is made up of waves, like light and sound, that are at different frequencies.

The reason why there are different color lights are because there are different type of frequencies. Some frequencies, such as ultrasonic, we can not see with our human eye.<span />

Answer:

Ultrasounds bounce inaudible sound waves off the solid structures in the body to create a 2D image.

The solid structures reflect sound waves, creating a white or gray appearance.

kiruha [24]

B is the correct answer

A prokaryote cell has no distinct nucleus with a membrane and neither does it have other specialized organelle.

In a eukaryotic cell, the genetic material is DNA in the form of chromosomes which are found within a distinct nucleus.

Examples of prokaryotes Streptomyces soil bacteria (from which streptomycin antibiotic is derived), Escherichia coli bacterium and Streptococcus bacteria (which causes strep sore throat).

Examples of Eukaryotes include protozoa such as amoeba, fungi, plants, animals and generally all multicellular organisms.

vlada-n [284]

The appropriate response of the nurse manager is to reprimand the nurse providing the colostomy care to a client without PPE because of the risk of transmitting nosocomial infections and maintaining hospital hygiene. The use of personal protective equipment should always be imposed in doing potentially infectious work, especially in the hospital.

olasank [31]

The right answer is: aorta to smaller systemic arteries to systemic capillaries to systemic veins to right atrium through the tricuspid valve.

The blood pathway is divided into two circuits, both beginning and ending in the heart.

- Systemic circulation (or general circulation, or "circulation")

It begins in the left ventricle, which through an artery distributes oxygenated blood to organs. Then the blood returns to the right heart (right atrium) through the cellar veins.

Each organ has an afferent vessel, supplying blood, and an efferent vessel carrying non-oxygenated blood.

- The pulmonary circulation (or "small circulation")

It begins in the right ventricle, from where the pulmonary artery sends blood without hematosis to a single organ, the lung. The blood is then oxygenated and returns to the left heart (left atrium) by the pulmonary veins.
