DanielleElmas [232]

1. "I can't believe this is happening right after my stomach surgery."

Explanation:

When blood flow is blocked due to formation of clots or other factors, the brain does not receive enough blood due to which there is obstruction in the flow of energy. This causes Ischemic Stroke in patients and must be treated immediately.

Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) dissolves blood clots and restores perfusion in clients with ischemic stroke.

It must be administered within a 3-4.5 hour window from appearance of symptoms for effective healing.

The nurse assesses for contraindications to tPA due to the risk of hemorrhage.

No history of intracranial hemorrhage or active bleeding should be present in the case of this patient.

You can tell tara that exposed newborns tend to <span>have lower Apgar scores. 

Analgesia will reduce pain in the labor, but the pain is causing the release of many hormones that will assist in labor. The absence of those hormones can make the baby have lower Apgar scores after labor.</span>

Which of the following is NOT necessary for respiration?
nekit [7.7K]

The right answer is surprisingly E.

Quinones, flavoproteins, cytochrome c, and electrons are important elements, essential for the respiratory chain.

Oxygen in respiration plays a role of final acceptor of electrons (and turns into H2O), but there are other final acceptors of electron transport depending on the species (nitrates for Pseudomonas, Sulphites for Clostridium ...). This allows us to classify respiration in two: aerobic respiration (with oxygen) and anaerobic respiration (without oxygen but with another electron end acceptor).

When is the carbon stored in plants released?
natulia [17]
<span>Carbon is released when a plant dies. This is because during cellular respiration, the plants intake carbon-dioxide from the atmosphere, converting it to oxygen which is then expelled. The carbon is stored and used as one of the plants staple resources. With such activities as deforestation, large amounts of carbon are released into the atmosphere while simultaneously decreasing the planets ability to filter harmful greenhouse gasses.</span>

The hormone ______, which is secreted by the adrenal cortex, causes the kidney to conserve ________ ions and excrete ________ io
balandron [24]

The hormone <u>adrenocorticotropin hormone</u> (ACTH). which is secreted by the adrenal cortex, causes the kidney to conserve <u>sodium</u> ions and excrete <u>potassium</u> ions and indirectly helps to maintain systemic blood pressure.

<h3>What are hormones?</h3>

Hormones are chemical messangers or substances which are produced by the body and released to the sites where they are needed in the body

So therefore, the hormone adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH). which is secreted by the adrenal cortex, causes the kidney to conserve sodium ions and excrete potassium ions and indirectly helps to maintain systemic blood pressure
