Answer:

Purulent exudate is mainly formed of pus and often referred to as exudate of suppurative nature.

Explanation:

Purulent exudate is comprised of plasma fluid, active neutrophils, some renmants of dead neutrophils, dead microbes, fibrinogen and cells of parenchyma with necrosis and widespread infections. The purulent exudate generally resembles a thick liquid that may become yellowish, greenish or brownish depending upon nature of infections. When the exudate only contains fibrin or fibrinogen then it is referred to as exudate of fibrinous nature.

During the breakdown of polymers, which of the following reactions takes place?

fomenos

Answer: Option A."Hydrolysis"

Explanation:

Polymers breaks down into monomers following hydrolysis reaction.

hydrolysis is a chemical reaction that occurs when a water molecule inserts across the bond.

In hydrolysis reactions, the polymer breaks or divide into two components one part that gains hydroxyl molecule (OH–) and the other part that gains gains a hydrogen atom (H+) due to split of water molecule.

Hence, the correct option is A.

12.36Un balón lleno contiene 12 kg de oxígeno, O2, bajo una presión ma-nométrica de 40 atm. Determine la masa de oxígeno que se

const2013 [10]

Answer:

Quedan 7.317 kilogramos de oxígeno en el balón y se extraen 4.683 kilogramos de oxígeno en el proceso.

Explanation:

Asúmase que el balón es rígido. Supongamos que el oxígeno se comporta como un gas ideal, entonces la ecuación de estado es la siguiente:

$P\cdot V = \frac{m\cdot R_{u}\cdot T}{M}$ (1)

Donde:

$P$ - Presión, medida en atmósferas.

$V$ - Volumen, medido en litros.

$m$ - Masa, medida en kilogramos.

$M$ - Masa molar, medida en kilogramos por kilomol.

$T$ - Temperatura, medida en Kelvin.

$R_{u}$ - Constante de los gases ideales, medida en atmósfera-litros por kilomol-Kelvin.

El aire experimenta un proceso isocórico e isotérmico, entonces obtenemos la siguiente relación:

$\frac{P_{1}}{m_{1}} = \frac{P_{2}}{m_{2}}$ (2)

Nótese que los subíndices 1 y 2 representan los estados inicial y final de proceso.

Si sabemos que $P_{1} = 41\,atm$ , $m_{1} = 12\,kg$ y $P_{2} = 25\,atm$ , entonces la masa final del aire es:

$m_{2} = \frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}} \cdot m_{1}$

$m_{2} = \left(\frac{25\,atm}{41\,atm}\right)\cdot (12\,kg)$

$m_{2} = 7.317\,kg$

La masa que se ha extraído del balón es:

$\Delta m = m_{1}-m_{2}$

$\Delta m = 12\,kg-7.317\,kg$

$\Delta m = 4.683\,kg$

Quedan 7.317 kilogramos de oxígeno en el balón y se extraen 4.683 kilogramos de oxígeno en el proceso.

A 27 year old male with a history of asthma was hospitalized with

vitfil [10]

Answer:

The diagnosis will show the presence of Streptococcus pneumoniae.

Explanation:

Actually, it is known that cough and fever are associated with all pneumonia. This means that , a culture will be needed to specifically identify the exact type of pneumonia.

In this case, Streptococcus pneumoniae was identified by the gram reaction and a test known as optochin-inhibition test.

The optochin - inhibition test inhibit the growth of streptococcus pneumonia. This occurs at low concentration. Optochin readily mixes with agar medium because it is water soluble.
