How does Chinese music sound different from the music you listen to?

Medicine

Len [333]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

In general Asian music, but most particularly Chinese, has called the attention of westerners because of the sensed differences with the music that we are accostumed to listen to in the west. This is why, when we go into a restaurant that is Asian, and we hear the tunes being played, we become aware of how different they sound from what we are accustomed to.

There are several reasons for why this happens, but the most important of all is the difference in the scale system that Chinese music composers use, versus ours. While in the west we use a 7-note scale system, most Asian music, and most particularly Chinese music, use what is known as the pentatonic, or 5-note scale.

Also, Chinese music is usually played with solo instruments, or very small ensembles, not how it is done in the west, and the emphasis tends to be on certain types of wind instruments such as zheng, and also on cymbals and gongs, which give this type of music a very peculiar characteristic.

These are only a few of the reasons why Chinese music may sound so different to what western people are used to.

Which treatment is WRONG when there is severe toxicity of digoxin?
ss7ja [257]

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.
