faltersainse [42]3 years ago

The best answer is D.

Man obtains most of his amino acids from diet, and mostly the essential amino acids. Of the basic set of 20 amino acids, man can only make 9,  but these are considered non-essential anyway. They are made from non-protein raw materials such as pyruvate.

Amino acids themselves are the building blocks for proteins.

Protein is the raw material for muscle growth and repair.

Hormones are made from protein and  cholesterol.

Hemoglobin molecule is made up of four protein chains with a heme group attached to each .

However in all these processes, enzymes which are protein in nature are employed but it is only creation of amino acids that does not need protein as a raw material.

read this excerpt from act ll, scene ll, of romeo and juliet. which theme is depicted through juliets monologue
stiks02 [169]
The main takeaway of Juliet’s monologue in this scene is that the only thing that keeps her and Romeo apart is their last names. She argues that names mean nothing because it is not actually a part of a person. She says that it is just another way to keep her and Romeo apart. “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose, by any other word would smell as sweet?” Juliet is saying that names are only used to describe something and she asks why is it that if we call a rose something else, it would take away from the beauty of both the flower and the word. When she says this, the main theme is only names separate them, but they are both of affluent families, so why would she be seen as lesser if she took on the Montague name and shed the Capulet name? But the only problem is that she basically tells Romeo that if he cuts his ties to his family and his name, that he can have her. I guess the most basic theme to draw from this is that “Love is selfish” because she is asking Romeo to change HIS name because she can keep her name and riches.

How can rescuers ensure that they are providing effective breaths when usimg a bag mask device??
finlep [7]

A bag-mask is a medical device designed to ventilate a patient in respiratory arrest.

It must be on hand in an emergency department of the hospital or an ambulance.

It can be used before or after intubation while waiting for a mechanical respirator.

It can be used in CPR.

The bag-mask is preferably connected to a source of oxygen.

To use it requires 2 hands:

The right-hand holds the ball and exerts pressure with the 4 fingers to push the air (press with the thumb is an error).

The left hand applies the mask to the mouth and the nose, keeping a good seal, then putting the hand on the chest of the victim to check if there is an expansion/shrinkage of the rib cage due to the entry of the air.
