The nurse should notify the surgeon of sucking ability of the infant. The defect may interfere with the ability of the infant to latch around the nipple and might require a special device for feeding.  

The lip can be repaired during the first weeks of the infant life. However, the palate is better to wait until 6 months to 1 year to be repaid to promote facial growth.

Breathing into and out of a paper bag for a long period of time will lead to?
Ilya [14]

Breathing into and out of a paper bag for a long period of time will lead to respiratory acidosis.

<h3>What is respiratory acidosis?</h3>
  • When the lungs are unable to expel all of the carbon dioxide the body produces, a condition known as respiratory acidosis develops.
  • Body fluids, particularly the blood, become too acidic as a result.
  • The main causes of respiratory acidosis are inadequate ventilation and carbon dioxide buildup.
  • The main issue is an increase in arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure (pCO2) and a decline in the arterial bicarbonate to arterial pCO2 ratio, which causes a drop in blood pH.
  • When there is acute respiratory acidosis, the body initially tries to make up for it.
  • If the acidosis lasts more than 12 hours, a reaction known as metabolic compensation2 takes place.
  • By increasing the release of hydrogen ions through ammonium, the kidneys will lower the blood's acidity.
  • Too much carbon dioxide in the body can result in general symptoms including headache, exhaustion, and twitching muscles.
  • Frequently, it goes away fast on its own.
  • But in cases of severe hypercapnia, the body is unable to return to a stable CO2 level, and the symptoms are more severe.

Why do you think invasive species are more of a problem in human altered biomes (anthromes) than they are in a biome that has no
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

invasive species are a problem both in anthropogenically altered and natural environments

Explanation:

An invasive species can be defined as a non-native species introduced into a new environment which then becomes abundant. Only in the US, it is believed that there are approximately 4,000 invasive species (some examples include the feral pigs, grey squirrels, European rabbits, etc.). In general, invasive species have a negative impact on the ecosystem, especially by displacing native species and thereby altering the trophic chain. In anthropogenically altered environments (anthromes), human beings are considered to be an invasive species.
