There are three types of waste prevention, these are primary, secondary and tertiary waste prevention / recycling.

Primary waste prevention refers to a situation in which the material to be disposed is not changed in anyway, before been reused. Such material can be given to friend or donated to a charity organization. The material is always used for the same purpose as the original use.  

Secondary waste prevention involves some kind of modifications while tertiary waste prevention usually involves the use of chemicals and heat.

Andrej [43]

Answer:

The correct answer would be c. The cell has a greater level of structural support.

Phospholipds are the structural units of a cell membrane. They are consist of two components; hydrphobic lipids and hydrophylic polar heads.

They make a bilayer structure in which polar heads are in contact with water and lipid part are embedded within the layer.

  • Lipid bilayer gives the rigidity or shape to the cell.  
  • It isolates the cell from the sorroundings.
  • It is semi-permiable in nature and thus prevents or control the movement of substances across the membrane.
  • Being liquid in nature, the cytoplasm would have dispersed in the surrounding in absence of cell membrane.

Hence, most appropriate choice would be c. The cell has a greater level of structural support.

  • Gestational diabetes is one of the conditions that impose a risk on the baby to have shoulder dystocia during the delivery.
  • Since in the given question it is mentioned that the mother has gestational diabetes and the head has been delivered but seems to retract back, this points out that the condition suspected is shoulder dystocia.
