<span>The answer to this question would be: Heart rate 88
</span>
Respiratory distress in asthma patient can be dangerous. It won't only affect the respiratory system but also cardiovascular system. In asthma, the expiration phase is longer and harder because of the obstruction. This will cause lower amount of oxygen gain and lower amount of carbon dioxide dumped. The right ventricle also needs extra force since the lungs pressure is increased. The heart rate should be increased in this case to compensate the lower oxygen level. 

Heart rate 88 is normal, not increased. This is a sign that the heart is already tired and might go arrest.

Is this statment true or false ?? the united states population grows when more people are born worldwide each year than die worl
sesenic [268]

Answer: True

Explanation: The U.S. population is projected to increase from 312.2 million in 2010 to 400.9 million in 2050.33 For this four-decade period, that is an increase of 28% at an average annual rate of 0.6%. The anticipated annual rate of growth in the U.S. population is significantly slower than in the past. In the six decades from 1950 to 2010, the U.S. population had increased from 157.8 million to 312.2 million, a total gain of 98% at an average annual rate of 1.1%. Thus, the projected annual rate of growth in the U.S. population is only about half the rate of growth experienced in the recent past.  The projected slowdown in population growth is even sharper in the world overall. From 1950 to 2010, the world population increased from 2.5 billion to 6.9 billion, or by 174%. The average annual rate of growth—1.7%—was much higher than in the U.S. In the future, the global population is expected to increase from 6.9 billion in 2010 to 9.6 billion in 2050, or by 38%. The average annual rate of growth—0.8%—is only slightly higher than the rate projected for the U.S.
