Shortness of breath is very common in the last trimester of pregnancy. This is because, the baby inside the uterus is growing and it starts to push the uterus that compresses the lungs above the diaphragm. This, leads to restricted expansion of the lungs while breathing and causes shortness of breath. Another reason for shortness of breath can be due to low iron content in the body.
If a pregnant woman in her last trimester reports occasional shortness of breath, the nurse should instruct her to:
1. take deep breath and start doing prenatal yoga
2. sleep on the left hand side
3. practicing good posture and standing straight
4. relax as much as possible
<span>Epithelial and connective tissues combine to form four types of membranes: mucous membranes (epithelial tissues are moist), serous membranes (line cavities that are not open to the outside environment), cutaneous membranes (skin that covers the surface of the body), and synovial membranes (produce synovial fluid).</span>
Diffusion is the movement of particles from a high concentration area to a low concentration area.
Things that can go through a membrane are ions (charged), small polar molecules. Big molecules can't go through the membrane due to its large size and disrupting the membrane.
Passive transport is the movement of substances acrpss the cell membrane w/o the use of energy. Active transport needs energy to move substances across a cell membrane.
Answer:
Water cycle is also called hydrological cycle. In this cycle water moved continuously above the surface of the earth for the continuity of life. Water is evaporated from the sea and ocean in the process of evaporation. This water goes to the atmosphere and form clouds. These clouds moves to hilly areas and comes to the ground in the form of rainfall and snowfall etc. Some water is stored on the mountains in the form of snow and the remaining downward through streams.
