The correct answer is "securing the airway and providing ventilation".
It has been proven that the first priority when dealing with drowning victims is to try and resuscitate the victim. This is done by securing the airway and providing ventilation. Especially, in this prehospital stage, the first responders should assess the airway, breathing, circulation and cervical spine. After securing that the victim has normal breathing and circulation, the healthcare professional should focus on correcting any abnormal physiological functions, such as hypoxia and hypothermia.

What is a recombinant plasmid?
Mkey [24]

Answer:

DNA plasmid that contains both "old" and "new" gene segments and confers new characteristics to the organism in which it is placed.

Explanation:

During the genetic engineering procedure, which aims at producing an organism with better and desirable characteristics, a DNA called PLASMID is usually used to convey the gene of interest into the organism.

A plasmid is a self-replicating extra-chromosomal DNA found in the bacterial genome. The plasmid becomes a RECOMBINANT PLASMID when a foreign DNA of interest is inserted into it, in order to act as a vector (carrier). Therefore, a recombinant plasmid is a DNA plasmid that contains both "old" i.e bacterial genome and "new" i.e foreign gene segments and confers new characteristics to the organism in which it is placed.
