The correct answer is: check for correct placement of the NG tube.

An adequately functioning nasogastric (NG) tube shouldprevent nausea and vomiting because stomach contents

are continuously being removed. Using the NG after abdominal surgery is a routine postoperative procedure until gastrointestinal tract start tofunction properly. The patency of the tube should be checked together with the amount and character of gastric drainage.

<h3>Oxidative Phosphorylation</h3>

Explanation:

The process by which ATP is generated by utilizing the large amount of energy released during the transfer of electrons from NADH or FADH₂ to the O₂  through a series of electron carrier present in the mitochondrial membrane is called oxidative phosphorylation.

The process of electron transfer is accompanied by the pumping of protons across inner membrane of mitochondria, from the  mitochondrial matrix to intermembrane space establishing electrochemical proton gradient.

The ATP synthase complex present in the mitochondrial membrane allows the protons to move down the proton gradient  as a result enough energy is released to add a phosphate group to ADP and form ATP inside the mitochondrial matrix.
