Vehicle emission mainly releases carbon monoxide and pollutes the environment. Therefore, the statement is true.

Further Explanation:

Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless, toxic, and tasteless air pollutant. It is produced by incomplete combustion of fuels, for example, natural gas, coal, gasoline, wood, and oil. Majorly carbon monoxide is released by vehicle emission in most of the country. By breathing, a very high concentration of CO that is mainly present in a polluted environment decreases the transport of oxygen through hemoglobin.  

It is a leading cause of death in the US country. It affects the health of an individual and causes headaches, chest pain, and heart problems. CO is mainly released by vehicle emission in the US and develops an unhealthy environment. This gas reacts with other pollutants and affects the environment adversely. To control the release of carbon monoxide from the vehicle, they use an automotive catalyst. By this, carbon monoxide production is decreased by twenty-one percent.

The nurse caring for a 24-year-old woman admitted with pneumonia explains how antibiotics work to help cure her pneumonia. Which
solong [7]

Answer:

The antibiotics should be taken correctly, respecting the times of take, the doses and the days of the treatment; otherwise the bacteria could not be eliminate and develop the disease again.

Explanation:

    Pneumonia is an infection that settle in the lungs. They may affect the region of the pulmonary alveoli where the terminal branches of the bronchi and sometimes the interstices (space between one alveolus and the other) emerge.  Basically, pneumonia is caused by the penetration of an infectious or irritating agent (bacteria, viruses, fungi and allergic reactions) into the alveolar space, where gas exchange occurs. This location should always be very clean, free of substances that could prevent air from contacting the blood.  Some symptoms of the disease are: high fever, dry or yellowish or greenish cough, shortness of breath and difficulty breathing.

   Treatment of pneumonia requires the use of antibiotics and improvement usually occurs within three or four days.

If the person begins to feel better and discontinues the treatment, theres a high chance for the bacteria to return with more resistance to the body, and may even aggravate the initial situation. The drug kills nonresistant bacteria, left over resistant ones.  So its important to not interrupt the treatment.
