Answer:

apply direct pressure to the injury site while manually stabilizing the stick in her arm

Explanation:

Spinal immobilization can generally be explained  as the use of adjuncts such as cervical collar, that are  being applied to minimize movement of the spinal column.

In this case, since the area where the girl is injured is the forearm, it has no direct connection with the spinal column, this means that, the cervical spinal immobilization is unnecessary.

Therefore, there should be direct application of pressure to the injury site while manually stabilizing the stick in her arm.

The spontaneous action potential established in cardiac contractile cells is highly dependent on which of the following? A. The
Arada [10]

Answer:

E. All of the above

Explanation:

In cardiac contractile cells there is rapid depolarization, then a plateau phase and repolarization.

when an action potential stimulates the cell, voltage-gated channels open quickly commencing the positive-feedback mechanism of depolarization. This in turn raises the membrane potential to approximately +30 mV, and this closes the sodium channels. Next comes the plateau phase, where membrane potential declines relatively slowly due to the opening of the slow Ca2+ channels, allowing Ca2+ to enter the cell while few K+ channels are open, leading to K+ to exit. Once the membrane potential reaches approximately zero, the Ca2+ channels close and K+ channels open, allowing the exit of K+. The repolarization lasts approximately for a while and here is when the membrane potential drops until it reaches resting levels once more and repeats the cycle.
