Answer: Fibrous pericardium and Serous Pericardium

Explanation:

The pericardium can be defined as the fibroserous sac( double layered) which covers the whole heart. The gap between two layers of serous pericardium is filled with serous fluid. This fluid protects the heart from external shocks.

Fibrous pericardium

This layer is the most superficial layer which consists of dense connective tissue. This layer of the heart protects it from over filling of blood, anchors the heart to the surrounding wall.

Serous pericardium

This layer provides lubrication to the heart by resisting the friction which occurs during the various type of heart function.

Answer:

a) 3000 mg

b) 5 capsules

Explanation:

Given that:

The patient weighs 165 pounds ≈ 75 kg,

The amount of medication required by the patient = 40 mg/kg/day,

The capsules are in 150 mg and the patient should take 4 equal doses per day.

a) The total number of  milligrams per day = Weight of the patient × amount of daily medication required by the patient.

Therefore, The total number of  milligrams per day = 75 kg × 40 mg/kg/day = 3000 mg per day.

The patient requires 3000 mg per day.

b) Since the patient requires 3000 mg per day and it must be taken in 4 equal doses:

The number of milligram taken per dose = 3000 mg / 4 = 750 mg per dose.

since each capsule is 150 mg, the number of capsule taken per dose = 750 mg / 150 mg = 5 capsules
