Answer:

The correct answer is a. elevated ADH levels

Explanation:

The function of ADH is to regulate the excretion of water from kidneys. As Dan has been lost in the desert for 2 days his body must be dehydrated and in stress which gives signal to hypothalamus gland to increase ADH level.

Once ADH level is increased his kidney starts reabsorbing as much water as it can preventing his body to become dehydrated and  reduce his urine amount.

So the correct answer is a. elevated ADH levels

uysha [10]

Answer:

10 per 1,000.

Explanation:

The death rate and birth rate affects the population dynamics of the particular area. The birth rate increases  the population size whereas the death rate decreases the population size.

The death rate of a population can be calculated by the following formula:

Crude death rate = total death/ total population

Here, total death = 1,000 and total population = 100,000.

Crude death rate = 1,000/ 100,000 = 0.01 or  10 per 1,000.

Thus, the correct answer is option (c).

How to calculate the heart rate from the electrocardiogram ?​
Masja [62]

Answer:

ECG paper is a grid where time is measured along the horizontal axis.

Each small square is 1 mm in length and represents 0.04 seconds.

Each larger square is 5 mm in length and represents 0.2 seconds.

Voltage is measured along the vertical axis.

10 mm is equal to 1mV in voltage.

The diagram below illustrates the configuration of ECG graph paper and where to measure the components of the ECG wave form

Heart rate can be easily calculated from the ECG strip:

When the rhythm is regular, the heart rate is 300 divided by the number of large squares between the QRS complexes.

For example, if there are 4 large squares between regular QRS complexes, the heart rate is 75 (300/4=75).

The second method can be used with an irregular rhythm to estimate the rate. Count the number of R waves in a 6 second strip and multiply by 10.

For example, if there are 7 R waves in a 6 second strip, the heart rate is 70 (7x10=70).
