Answer:

C)Obstructive shock

Explanation:

Obstructive shock is type of shock in which there is a physical obstruction of blood vessels or the obstruction of the heart. It can result from the inability to produce sufficient cardiac output, irrespective of the normal  functioning of the myocardium and intravascular volume. In other words, obstructive shock occurs when blood is not able to go where it is required to go.

One treatment used in treating this type of shock is to give the patient a sufficient amount of intravenous fluids and also drugs that will increase blood pressure to allow the flow of blood to oterparts of the body.

An example of obstructive shock is pulmonary embolism.

Therefore the client described above is at a risk of experiencing obstructive shock.

Murljashka [212]
Metabolizing nitrogen in prokaryotes is very important to other organisms since these prokaryotes are able to convert ammonium in the soil to nitrate and, then, the denitrifying bacteria could use the nitrate produced instead of using oxygen in their metabolism in order to release nitrogen molecules. by the denitrification process, thus completing the nitrogen cycle. Without the nitrogen metabolism in prokaryotes, the nitrogen in the atmosphere could not be used or utilized to synthesize essential organic compounds that are needed by other organisms. It is only the prokaryotes that has the ability fixing nitrogen or can do the process of nitrogen fixation.

The z value for a 99.5% confidence interval estimation is
kompoz [17]

Answer & explanation:

A confidence interval is an estimated range of a parameter of interest. Confidence intervals are used to indicate the reliability of an estimate. For example, a confidence interval can be used to describe how reliable a search result is.  

In other words, a high confidence interval Z value implies that a survey is more likely to indicate the actual values being presented.

In biostatistics, for example, the Z value can be used in calculations to assess the prevalence of a particular disease and the factors associated with it in a population.

The value of Z, however, is not used as a percentage (like the 99.5% addressed in this question) for calculations. A universal table is used to convert Z values and use them in statistical calculations.

Some examples of Z value conversions can be found in the table attached in this question.
