Answer:

C. If I decide to drink, I should stop taking disulfiram at least one week prior to consuming alcohol.

Explanation:

This is because alcohol is contraindicated in disulfiram.

Mechanism of action of disulfiram:

Disulfiram works by blocking the breakdown of alcohol in the body. If then taking alongside alcohol, alcohol will build up in the body (toxins) and cause sickness.

Which situation is not a reason why a woman might need a Cesarean section (C-section) delivery? The baby has a negative blood ty
Burka [1]

Answer:

The baby has a negative blood type.

Explanation:

A Cesarean section would be done most of the time when the unborn baby is in danger such as when the baby can't get enough oxygen or no oxygen at all or other circumstances. The baby gets its blood type from its mother and father but if it's negative it doesn't mean the child can possibly DIE... This option is the selected option. The rest of the options show when and why the woman might need to do a Cesarean section.

Exercise requires the use of oxygen to produce energy.
Alenkinab [10]

It certainly does. If you mean this to be a true false question, then the answer is huge yes.

People with deficiencies in Red Blood Cells will certainly tell you that they are listless and can do very little work because they are not getting enough oxygen going through their bodies. They are not lazy, nor incompetent, because every activity is daunting because they just cannot do the work.

If this in not what you are looking for please leave a note.
