The correct answer is B. Some people think that mice are dirty and frightening.

Explanation

An argument is a way to enunciate or justify a proposition, this can be oral or written and should be characterized by coherence and consistency because it has the objective to persuade the audience about the position of the author. On the other hand, a counterclaim is an argument used to refute or oppose another argument or statement and because of this, it should be coherent and consistent to successfully contradict and prove as invalid the argument in opposition. In the case of Shane, who says that "white mice are clean and friendly house pets" the counterclaim should show the way in which the assumption of mice as clean are friendly is incorrect, because of this the correct answer is "B. Some people think that mice are dirty and frightening", because this statement is in  opposition with Shane's argument, it has coherence and consistency and it directly contradicts the main point of Shane's argument.

To evaluate a patient for hypoxia, the physician is most likely to order which laboratory test?
Yuri [45]

To evaluate a patient for hypoxia, the physician will carry out the arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis.

           Hypoxia refers to the deficiency or lack of oxygen in the blood. In extreme cases, it might be even fatal to the individual and lead to death.

           In the arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis, a sample of blood is taken from the artery and measured for the amount and pressure of the gases like oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood.

           This is a laboratory test that shows the amount of the required gases in the blood. By measuring the amount of the gases, we can understand if the person has hypoxia or not. Thus, this test is carried on the person.
