How energy is conserved even though the amount of energy available

1 answer:

The amount of energy at each trophic level decreases as it moves through an ecosystem. As little as 10 percent of the energy at any trophic level is transferred to the next level; the rest is lost largely through metabolic processes as heat.

You are assessing a patient and notice he has a collapsed jugular vein. What does this indicate?

svlad2 [7]

Upon examination & assessment, a patient with collapsed jugular veins results in a clinical diagnosis of Hemothorax.

How is collapsed JVP related to hemothorax?

Hemothorax is the accumulation of blood between the visceral and parietal pleurae (pleural space).
Respiratory discomfort and tachypnea are common clinical findings in such individuals.
This exercise demonstrates hemothorax evaluation and treatment and discusses the role of the interprofessional team in improving care for individuals with this disease.

A frequent consequence of acute thoracic injuries is hemothorax.

It is a blood clot in the pleural space, which can be seen between the visceral and parietal pleura.
The most common mechanism of trauma is a blunt or penetrating injury to intrathoracic or extrathoracic tissues that leads to thoracic haemorrhage.

Bleeding can occur in the chest wall, intercostal or internal mammary arteries, major vessels, mediastinum, myocardium, lung parenchyma, diaphragm, or belly.
Although CT scanning is the preferred method of assessing intrathoracic injuries, it may not be practicable in individuals with unstable trauma.
The pulmonary windows are now included in the Extended-Focused Assessment with Sonography in Trauma (eFAST) technique.

Semen contains all of the following, EXCEPT

kap26 [50]

Answer: C. Clotting enzyme

Explanation:

Semen is the fluid that is discharged by the male reproductive organs. It is composed of sperms and viscous fluid to facilitate the flow of sperms to the female genital tract. It consists of fluids secreted from various glands. The seminal vesicles secrete about 70% of the semen. It consists of fructose. The prostrate gland secrete about 20% volume of the semen. The fluid consists of acid phosphatase, and proteolytic enzymes. The bulbourethral gland secretes about 5% of the total volume of semen. It consists of mucoproteins.

The clotting factors or enzymes are absent in semen as these are produced by the blood platelets at the site of injury.
