Medicine
1 answer:
ss7ja [257]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The correct answer is option D. give furosemide.

Explanation:

Digoxin is a drug that uses in the cardiovascular condition. It inhibits the Na-K ATPase enzyme, which functions to maintain the intracellular environment by regulating the entry and exit of sodium and potassium.  

Digoxin toxicity may occur due to the low level of potassium (inside the cell)due to the inhibitaion of the sodium-potassium pump.  Furosemide is a diuretic drug that decreases salt concentration (such as ions) in the body by increasing urine output. and causes a low level of potassium in the body

Thus, furosemide increases digoxin toxicity as during low levels of potassium, digoxin can easily bind with the sodium-potassium pump and shows severe effects.

If you were to sit on a horse's back you would be on the ______ aspect of the bone.
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

The correct answer to this question: If you were to sit on a horse´s back you would be on the ____ aspect of the bone, would be: D: Dorsal.

Explanation:

Given my research this question does not refer to the aspect of the bone itself, but rather, the positional reference of the bones with regards to the part of the horse where you are sitting. Thus, the full question found ends with; ___ aspect of the horse, not the bone. This has to do with how we term the position of bones, and other structures, relative to one another, ventral, inferior or anterior, posterior and dorsal. But because we are talking about a human bone´s position in relation to the body of an animal, like the horse, then we would say that the position of our sitting bone, relative to the horse, would be dorsal.
