Answer:

The answer is letter B, keep him warm and ventilate with BVM.

Explanation:

In order to know more about the answer, let's check out the meaning of "Premature Baby" first.

Premature Baby- a baby born through premature birth <em>(fewer than 37 weeks).</em>  Babies are normally born at the usual <em>40 weeks.</em> Health problems may occur with premature babies, thus it is very important to monitor them.  

In the situation above, the premature baby's heart rate is only 90 beats/min. <em>A resting heart rate for a newborn infant is 130-150 beats per minute. </em>This means that the baby above has a slow heart rate. In order to increase the hear rate, it is important to keep the baby warm and to ventilate with a "Bag Valve Mask" (BVM). <u><em>An increase in internal temperature increases the heart rate. Increasing ventilation will also help increase the heart rate. </em></u>

<u><em>Remember: </em></u>Inhalation increases the heart rate.

Motor (efferent) neurons carry information _____ the brain whereas sensory (afferent) neurons carry information ______ the brain
Norma-Jean [14]
Neurons are the building blocks of the nervous system. They are the links so that information could be processed as electrochemical signals. There are three fundamental kinds of neurons in our body:

1. Motor neurons - they carry signals from the central nervous system (CNS) to the body parts such as muscle movement
2. Sensory neurons -  they carry signals from other body parts to the CNS
3. Interneurons - interlinking neurons between the brain and the spinal cord

Thus, the correct and complete statement above should be

<span><em>Motor (efferent) neurons carry information </em><em>from </em><em>the brain whereas sensory (afferent) neurons carry information</em><em> to</em><em> the brain.</em></span>
