Answer:

The nurse should give fluids and water to the client.

Explanation:

The nurse should give water to the patient because the absence of bowel sounds means that the person has nothing in his or her digestive system. in other words, there is no food or fluids that can help to hydrate the body and if the person is thirsty, it means that his or her body is demanding water to help with dehydration.

Besides, the patient has the skin burned, so the natural barrier to stop dehydration ( the skin), is damaged. As the client can not retain water properly in his or her body, the person dehydrates quicker, so the client needs more fluids and water

The nurse should give fluid immediately.

In burns, the patient skin might be damaged to the point where it can no longer hold up the water. This will cause the patient to lose much water from the skin. It will be much more if the burns area is wide.
The client thirst, lower urinary output indicate a dehydration. Administering fluid via intravenous route is recommended if the patient can not do it orally.

In your own words Describe how autotrophs and heterotrophs obtain energy. please this answer must be at least 150 words any one
blsea [12.9K]

The autotrophs are the primary producer in the food chain and they are the ones who initiate the food chain. They produce food by using sunlight or sometimes chemical energy or reactions. They primarily use carbon dioxide, sunlight and water to form sugars or carbohydrates which become their energy source. They use the process of photosynthesis or chemosynthesis to generate food. Examples of autotrophs are green plants, green algae, bacteria.

Heterotrophs cannot make their food via sunlight or other inorganic sources and hence are dependent on the autotrophs or other animals. The heterotrophs have been ranked as secondary and tertiary consumers and cannot be producers.  They consume the organic products made by autotrophs to obtain energy for various metabolic and biological activities. The heterotrophs can be herbivore, carnivore, fungi, parasitic plants.

Some are photo-hetrotrophs,  who use light as energy but cannot use carbon  dioxide as the carbon source since they cannot fix the carbon like autotrophs.

Answer:

I think it just all exists at once, if it never is created or destroyed. It must have just appeared at the same time at some point. It doesn't exactly come from anywhere, but that's my opinion. There might be another scientific answer out there, but that's what i think. I hope this helps.
