To have some kind of context, torsemide is also known as the 'water pill' It induces you to produce more urine than usual. Since the doctor prescribed a daily dosage of 20 mg torsemide, this will be the basis of the nurse. If this medication is to be maintained within four days, then the total amount of dosage would be:

20 mg/day * 4 days = 80 mg 

The total dosage in 4 days would be 80 mg. But since only 10 mg tablets are available, you have to divide 80 by 10. This means that you need 8 of these 10-mg tablets within the course of four days.

Answer;

The above statement is true

Water is an abiotic factor in terrestrial environments.

Explanation;

-The living things in an ecosystem are called biotic factors. Living things include plants, animals, bacteria, fungi and more. The non living parts of an ecosystem on the other hand, are called abiotic factors. In an ecosystem some abiotic factors are sunlight, temperature atmospheric gases water and soil.

-Water is considered an abiotic factor in terrestrial environments, similar to rocks, wind, or sunshine. While all life on Earth requires water to survive, water itself is not alive and is therefore not considered a biotic factor.
