Answer:

The correct answer is - A wood-frame house built on bedrock.

Explanation:

An earthquake would damage a steel-frame building built on sediment in comparison of a wooden house built on the bedrock due to the fact that waves of an earthquake do not go through solid things easily such as the earth core or the bedrock land rather than reclaimed land or sediments.

So, the bedrock will shake less than the hotel or heave building built on sediment. A house that made up of wooden-frame would shake only whereas the steel-frame might damage more.

What is the relationship between emerging scientific ideas and open-mindedness?
il63 [147K]
Open-mindedness is needed for the emerging scientific ideas to be accepted (or : to not be rejected without consideration).

Additionally, open-mindedness as a attitude often leads to new scientific ideas emerging: it means that people are more comfortable to try out new things and to test new hypotheses.

Morphine 4mg IV push is ordered. The vial states 10mg/mL. How many mL will you give?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

If a vial of morphine has 10 mg/mL, and a dose of 4 mg is required to be administered intravenously, 04 mL must be administered to fulfill the indication.

Explanation:

Morphine is a drug, an opioid derivative, with a potent analgesic and sedative effect. Its use is intended for acute or chronic severe pain, mainly related to cardiovascular disease, cancer or severe trauma.

One vial of morphine vial has a concentration of 10 mg/mL, so if 4 mg is required, a simple calculation must be made:

Morphine: 10 mg ------------ 1 mL

Dose:          4 mg ------------ X

X = (4 x 1)/ 10

X = 4/10

X = 0.4 mL

<em><u>To administer 4 mg of intravenous morphine, 0.4 mL of the injection should be used</u></em>.

____ 13. geologists call individual layers of sedimentary rocks __________, whereas several of them together are called ________
Deffense [45]
Geologists call individual layers of sedimentary rocks beds, whereas everal of them together are called strata.
Sedimentary rocks are formed when sediment is deposited out of air, ice, wind, gravity, or water flows carrying the particles in suspension. The sediment is often formed when weathering and erosion break down a rock into loose material in a source area. Strata are layers of rocks that are laid down as sediment, often in the sea, and are slowly changed by pressure, heat and chemical actions into rocks.
