You are working in an outpatient clinic when a mother brings in her 20-year-old daughter, C.J., who has type 1 diabetes mellitus

(DM) and has just returned from a trip to Mexico. She has had a 3-day fever and diarrhea with nausea and vomiting. She has been unable to eat and has tolerated only sips of fluid. Because she was unable to eat, she did not take her insulin as directed. You note C.J. is unsteady, so you take her to the examining room in a wheelchair. While assisting her onto the examination table, you note her skin is warm and flushed. Her respirations are deep and rapid, and her breath is fruity and sweet smelling. C.J. is drowsy and unable to answer your questions. Her mother states, "She keeps telling me she's so thirsty, but she can't keep anything down."
Required:
List four pieces of additional information you need to elicit from C.J.'s mother.

Which is a major by product of respiration? Choose the correct answer.
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

This question is incomplete as it lacks options, however, it can be answered. The answer is:

CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2)

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is the process by which glucose is broken down in an organism's cell to release energy. Although the process involves series of reactions, however, the general equation is as follows;

C6H12O6 + 6O2 ➡ 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy

Based on the above equation, the inputs are glucose and oxygen while the outputs are carbon dioxide and water. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the major byproduct of the respiration process.
