Answer: The correct answer to the question is option A

SEARCH FOR AN AED.

Explanation: AED stands for Automated External Defibrillator.

It is a machine that is used to re-establish a normal cardiac rythym in cases of cardiac arrest or when the heart stops beating momentarily.

It delivers electric shock via the chest to the heart inorder to stop an an irregular heart rythym and establish an effective one.

From the scenerio in the question,5 cycles and 2minutes of CPR has been done on the victim but no pulse is present, The next best thing to do is to use an AED to shock the victim inorder to re-establish the lost cardiac rythym and pulse respectively.

This is achieved placing the pads on victim, analysis the rythym, move slightly away from the victim to prevent any contact and then shock the victim by pressing the shock button as the AED instructs showing that the rythym presented is a shockable one.

Celery stalks that are immersed in fresh water for several hours become stiff. Similar stalks left in a 0.15 M salt solution bec
mixer [17]

Answer:

From this it can be deduced that the fresh water is hypotonic and the salt solution is hypertonic to the cells of the celery stalks.

Explanation:

When submerged in water, the celery stalks become stiff and hard, this shows that water moves within the stalk, thus, water is hypotonic in comparison to the celery stalk. Therefore, water moves from the region of higher concentration to the region of lower concentration.  

When the same celery stalk is administered into the 0.15 M solution it turns soft, which shows that water from the celery stalk moves out. Thus, the salt solution is hypertonic in comparison to the celery stalk. Therefore, freshwater is hypertonic and the solution of salt is hypertonic to the celery stalk cells.
