Answer:

Hyperventilation refers to breathing, which is faster and deeper in comparison to the normal. It makes the concentration of carbon dioxide in the blood decline. Some of the reasons for sudden hyperventilation comprise asthma, anxiety, a head injury, emphysema, fever, and some medications.  

In the mentioned case, the most appropriate nursing action would be to provide the patient with a paper bag and make her breathe in it. The procedure of breathing using a paper bag is to take six to twelve easy, casual breaths, with a small paper bag held over the nose and the mouth. After that there is a need to withdraw the bag from the mouth and nose and to take easy and casual breaths.

Hyperventilating is indicative of low carbon dioxide, from what I've learned, a patient should breath into a brown paper bag or similar, to avoid this symptom. with med.technology, there r other methods also..

What TWO factors do scientists track and monitor in all types of freshwater ecosystem?
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

A: light availability

B: nutrients

Explanation:

Both nutrients and light availability affect the primary productivity of the freshwater ecosystem, therefore, scientists study both factors to track associated changes. This is because photosynthesis is driven by sunlight and nutrients availability. It is suggested that the abundance of autotrophs (e.g. phytoplanktons) in an aquatic ecosystem increases as light and nutrients availability increase. Thus, there will be more food available for secondary and tertiary consumers to feed upon. Resultantly, the aquatic environment will turn a biodiversity hotspot where many species of living organisms start dwelling. Thus, scientists mainly ecologists would focus on these two parameters at first that lead to consideration of other parameters.

Help please !! I really don’t understand this much☹️
morpeh [17]
Ok, so I wrote these out just to make it a little bit easier for you to understand what I am about to explain.

So for the first one you have two different traits that can be inherited- having freckles or having no freckles, F and f respectively. The dominant trait (or having freckles) is shown by the capital F, and is almost always expressed over the recessive trait, or the lowercase f. So, for example, if you have a genotype of Ff, the trait having freckles will show up instead of not having freckles. The only way that you could have the trait of no freckles show up is if there are two recessive alleles for having no freckles, or ff. In this case, you have two parents who are both heterozygous for the trait of having freckles, so in other words the mother has Ff and the father has Ff. Each parent passes down one allele to the offspring, so since you are breeding Ff and Ff, you should result in having the possible genotypes of FF, Ff, Ff, and ff. This means that there is a 25% chance that the offspring will be homozygous for having freckles, a 50% chance that the offspring will be heterozygous for having freckles and a 25% chance that they would be homozygous for having no freckles, or a 1:2:1 ratio.

Incomplete dominance is a little bit different that just a normal monohybrid cross. Instead of just the dominant gene showing up in a heterozygous genotype, both traits show up. So like the question says, if a homozygous red flower plant was crossed with a homozygous white flower plant, their offspring would not just be white or red, they would be pink because it is a mixture of white and red. So then if you crossed the heterozygous, or Rr plants, the result would be a 25% chance of getting a homozygous RR red plant, a 50% chance of getting a pink Rr plant, and a 25% chance of getting a white rr plant, or another 1:2:1 ratio.

Sorry for the wordy answer, but hopefully this helps you understand this a little better :)
