Answer:

iron

Explanation:

Also known as micro minerals, trace elements are a set of inorganic chemicals needed by humans in small quantities, which perform various metabolic functions in the body, especially in the formation of enzymes vital to the most diverse biochemical processes performed by cells. They are acquired through balanced and diversified diets.

Iron is an example of a vital trace element for the human body. Iron acts as a component of hemoglobin, myoglobin and respiratory enzymes; It is critical to the process of cellular respiration as it binds to O2 leading it to cells and CO2 to return it abroad. It can be ingested by feeding with livers, egg yolk, legumes, nuts and green vegetables. Also, iron is essential to prevent anemia.

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
Body substance isolation (BSI) is generally the preferred method of isolation because it gives a good amount of protection against infection. 
Infection can be spread via body substance so by isolating it you can prevent it. Patient out of hospital disease mostly is unknown and it's better to do a stricter precaution. In a case of new disease emerge, BSI practice can delay the spreading of disease.

HELPPP ASAP<br>what are some advantages and disadvantages of a birthing room in a hospital?​
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The parents are not on "home ground" and do not have the same control they would at home.  Hospitals are primarily associated with illness.  Hospitals can seem impersonal and intimidating.  As a large institution, the hospital has rules, policies and red tape; they are rarely altered to accommodate an individual.  Less privacy is available.  The father is often less actively involved in a hospital setting, and may fell like an "outsider".  The mother's birth is usually managed by experts trained in pathology, not normal births.  The risk of iatrogenic complications and infection to the mother and baby is greater among mothers who deliver in hospitals, than among those who give birth at home or in a birthing center.  The mother is at a significantly higher risk of having an unnecessary cesarean section.  Some routine separation of the mother and baby is almost unavoidable.  Most hospitals do not allow the mother much rest.

i hope this helps :)

How Does Someone Get Infected? Name the body fluids and an explanation, if any, of how it can be transmitted. High Risk Body Flu
love history [14]
Highest risk body fluid would be blood because it has high nutritional value and pathogen is multiplying on there. Most pathogen will be transmitted by blood.

Droplet from cough also highly contagious since it easily contacts with any part of the body. Inhalation also makes the infection easier since it contacts mucosa.

Vaginal secretion and seminal fluid can transmit many virus but it depends on how many virus in the blood.

Saliva is composed by water and enzyme so it's low risk on virus spread. But it's on the mouth(which wasn't sterile) so it can be contaminated by various things. 

In normal condition urine and spinal fluid is sterile, but in a case of infection, it can be contaminated.

Sweat is mostly water and salt so it's safe.
