Answer:

The five-and-five first aid action recommended by the red cross

Explanation:

When an infant is choking and becomes unresponsive, the five-and-five approach is recommended as a first aid treatment to dislodge the material blocking the airway.

<em>The five-and-five action involves alternation between giving the subject five back blows and five abdominal thrusts until the the choking material is dislodged or the subject becomes unconscious.</em>

If the infant becomes unconscious, CPR should be performed and further help should be sought.

What dies survivor ship curve mean? What an easy way to remember what it means?
vredina [299]
Survivorship curve = so, first of all, it's a curve, as in a graph.

It describes "survivorship" - the rate of survival, in other words: out of 100 organisms that are born, how many survive. This rate is different among species, for example, most humans live out to most of their life span, and almost all can survive well beyond a reproductive age.

However, in frogs for example, many many individuals are born, but only few can survive to adulthood: most die very young, before reproductive age.

So if you hear about a new species: let's say dogs, and you want to know how long they would live, you would look at their sirvivorship curve (and in some breeds of dogs, those that are likely not to be in shelters, but in homes, the survivorship curve would be similar as in humans: almost all individuals born can live long.
