Answer:

Pulmonary circulation is the system of transportation that shunts de-oxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs to be re-saturated with oxygen before being dispersed into systemic circulation.

Explanation:

Deoxygenated blood from the lower half of the body enters the heart from the inferior vena cava while deoxygenated blood from the upper body is delivered to the heart via the superior vena cava. Both the superior vena cava and inferior vena cava empty blood into the right atrium. Blood flows through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle. It then flows through the pulmonic valve into the pulmonary artery before being delivered to the lungs. While in the lungs, blood diverges into the numerous pulmonary capillaries where it releases carbon dioxide and is replenished with oxygen. Once fully saturated with oxygen, the blood is transported via the pulmonary vein into the left atrium which pumps blood through the mitral valve and into the left ventricle. With a powerful contraction, the left ventricle expels oxygen-rich blood through the aortic valve and into the aorta: This is the beginning of systemic circulation

The ability for a muscle to work against a resistance for an extended period of time is.
zysi [14]

A muscle's endurance is its capacity to contract repeatedly against a fixed resistance over an extended length of time.

Tearm endurance:

The capacity for enduring difficulty or adversity, especially the capacity for long-term stress-inducing effort or exercise, such as a marathon runner's endurance. 2: the act of enduring many sufferings or an instance of doing so. 3: persistence of the play's significance, permanency.

Types:

The types of endurance are aerobic endurance,

anaerobic endurance : Anaerobic exercise is a type of exercise that breaks down glucose in the body without using oxygen; anaerobic means "without oxygen".

speed endurance :is the ability to prolong the amount of time where a near maximal speed can be maintained.

strength endurance :Strength endurance is the specific form of strength displayed in activities which require a relatively long duration of muscle tension with minimal decrease in efficiency"

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The nursing instructor is pointing out the various complcations which can occur during pregnancy in women with diabetes mellitus. The instructor determines the session is successful after the students correctly choose which complication that can occur if the diabetes is not kept under control?

A. hydramnios

B. hypotension

C. Placenta previa

D. Cerebral Vascular accident

Explanation:

Out of control diabetes can result in hyperglycemia which tend to lead to excessive amniotic fluid( hydramnios or poly hydramnios) because of Osmotic presure fluid shifts. A small placenta is more common than placenta previa. the woman may experience hypertension verus hypotension if the diabetes is not controlled. cerebral vascular accidents are usually not related to diabetes but to circulatory issues.

A 17-year-old male develops pneumonia, diabetic ketoacidosis, and metabolic acidosis. Respiratory compensation to a metabolic ac
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

The best answer from the choices, to the question: The cause of the hyperventilation is described by which of the following statement:___, would be, B: A decrease in the bicarbonate concentration stimulates ventilation.

Explanation:

The acid-base balance in the human body, is a very restrictive one. Normal ranges in this base are: 7.35 to 7.45. Whenever the values go either below 7.35 or above 7.45, we are talking about a person going into acidosis or alkalosis. Both situations are pretty serious and they have to do with the balance between the amounts of bicarbonate, and CO2 in the form of carbonic acid, in the blood. The normal ratio of bicarbonate to carbonic acid, is usually 20:1. Chemoreceptors, especially central ones in the neck, measure constantly that the balance is kept and if this is not the case, then several mechanisms will be put into place to recover it. One such measure is respiratory, and the other is metabolic. In the case of this 17-year-old, he has a pneumonia, which means that from the start, one of his recovery mechanisms is impeded, which is the respiratory mechanism of balance. He is also having metabolic problems with his system of compensation because his body is already producing high levels of H+ ions and not enough bicarbonate. Hyperventilation in this person is attempting to expel as much CO2 as possible, to try and restore the balance. The first thing that is sensed by the receptors is the changing in the 20:1 ratio, the increase in pH due to too much carbonic acid, and thus the body initiates the use of CO2 expulsion by the lungs, while metabolic mechanisms come into play.
