The next step would be to follow the AED prompts.

An AED or Automated External Defibrillator refers to a lightweight, small apparatus, which evaluates an individual's heart rhythm and can determine the irregular heart rhythms, like VF (ventricular fibrillation) or VT (ventricular tachycardia), also called Sudden Cardiac Arrest.

Automated external defibrillators can assist in saving many lives at the time of sudden cardiac arrest. However, even after training, memorizing the steps to use an AED in the right manner can be tough.

Answer:

Follow the AED prompts .

Explanation:

Automated external defibrillator (AED) is used in the case in which a person suffers from the Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA). This step can increase the chance of survival of the patient.

As the woman is unresponsive, the next step in this case is to follow the aed prompts. These prompts include ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia. The patient must be reduced from the water and the area must be covered if the patient has scar for the pacemaker.

Thus, the answer is to follow the AED prompts .

Sort the examples into proper mechanisms of reproductive isolation.
vovangra [49]
The mechanisms of reproductive isolation prevent the reproduction of two individuals from different species. The prezygotic mechanisms disrupt the stages of reproduction before the forming of the zygote or prevent the mating at the start, and the postzygotic mechanisms affect the stages of reproduction after the forming of the zygote.
So, the first and the third example (the urchins and the grasshoppers) show the prezygotic mechanism, as the two individuals are not able to mate or form a zygote.
The second and the fourth example ( zonkey and the death of a zygote) show the working of the postzygotic mechanisms, as the zygote is formed, but it seems to be inviable, and the zonkeys are sterile, preventing the individual to reproduce.

A species of fly has two alleles for the length of their legs. The allele for long
stira [4]

Answer:

According to Hardy Weinberg law (p+q)2=1 where p is fequency of one allele and q is the frequency of another allele.

According the question

 q represent the short legs and 33 of 100 organism have short legs.

   As a result the frequency of q with respect to the 100 organism is 33/100

                                                                                                                  =0.33

Therefore q=0.33

 we all know that

            (p+q)2=1

             ∴  p+q= 1

             ∴  p=1-q

               p= 1-0.33

                   p=0.67

The frequency of p is 0.67
