A primigravida is admitted to the birthing unit in early labor. A pelvic examination reveals that her cervix is 100% effaced and

dilated 3 cm. The fetal head is at +1 station. In which area of the client's pelvis is the fetal occiput?

The fetal occiput is in the Ischial spines.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

During labor and delivery, the baby passes through the “pelvic bones to reach the vaginal opening”. The pelvis is located between the hip bones and is wide/flat in females. The pelvis has the uterus, cervix and vagina. The muscles in the uterus push the baby down. The baby’s head presses the cervix releasing oxytoxin. Then it dilates and allows the baby to pass through fetal station.

Fetal station is the fetus/baby is in the pelvis. Occiput is the lower part of the head/skull. The presenting part of the baby passes through the birth canal. Most of the time it would be “baby's head, shoulder, the buttocks, or the feet”. Ischial spines are “bone points” on the “mother's pelvis”. It is the “narrowest part of the pelvis”.

<u>0 station:</u> This is the position when baby's head is at the Ischial spines. The baby is "engaged" when largest part of the head enters the pelvis. If the presenting part lies above the Ischial spines, the station is reported as a negative number from -1 to -5.

An increase in the membrane permeability for a solute will result in an increase in the driving force for diffusion of that solu
Kazeer [188]

A membrane's permeability has an impact on the diffusion rate. As membrane permeability increases, the diffusion rate rises.

  • The dispersion of materials is also impacted by changes in temperature and pressure values.
  • The passive diffusion rate of penetrated molecules through the biomembrane can be used to quantify a membrane's permeability.
  • It is well acknowledged that the permeability of any particular molecule depends mostly on its size, polarity, charge number, and molar mass.
  • The capacity for materials to flow into and out of a membrane is known as permeability. The ease with which a chemical can diffuse across a cell membrane determines its permeability.
  • Only chemicals that can dissolve in fat can typically pass through a cell membrane.
  • The electrical potential gradient across the cell membrane and the concentration gradient of the permeant ion across the membrane together make up the net electrochemical driving force.

That is the opbposite of synthesois reaction
yaroslaw [1]

The two basic reaction types are synthesis and decomposition. ... Decomposition reactions are the opposite of synthesis reactions because they take apart larger molecules and/or compounds. The generic equation for a synthesis reaction is A + B à AB, where A and B are the pieces that make up the compound/molecule AB.

What are the stages of the nitrogen cycle??
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

·        Nitrogen fixation

·        Nitrification

·        Assimilation

·        Ammonification

·        Denitrification

Explanation:

Nitrogen fixation is the process where nitrogen is converting into ammonium.

Nitrification is the process of ammonium oxidation into nitrate.

Assimilation is the process where animals and plants receive NO3. Plants are using this nitrate for proteins and acids.

Ammonification is the process where the nitrate that is contained in plants and animals is recycled after their death.

Denitrification is e the last process in this cycle and during this process nitrate is converting to gases.
