What is the recommended way to determine if a baby requires supplemental oxygen in the delivery room? assess the color of the ba
Vladimir79 [104]

The right answer is to look for cyanosis by determining the color of the baby's chest and abdomen,


Cyanosis refers to the bluish coloration that the skin and mucous membranes take when the blood contains a small amount of oxygen-bound hemoglobin.

When there is little oxygen in the blood, it takes on a dark red color. And when all the vessels (of the whole body or a region of the body) carry low oxygenated blood, then it gives the skin the bluish color characteristic of cyanosis.

Symptoms may be associated with that of cyanosis, depending on what causes it. For example, breathing difficulties, chest pain, fever, heart failure or general fatigue.

Which characteristics are always present in all living organisms
mina [271]
Let's think about this question and ask our selves what is life?
Think about a non-living thing, like a bike. 

Does this bike have kids? Does it need to eat or sleep? What is it made up of? What does it need to survive? Does it need to be able to sense the environment around itself? 

You're probably saying, no the bike doesn't do a lot of these things.

Humans, animals, and pretty much all living things need to perpetuate their genes by means of reproduction, whether it is asexual or sexual. 
We need to animals need to eat and sleep, but you can just categorize this as a metabolic process. Plants need Nitrogen and CO2 and sunlight, to undergo metabolic processes and make glucose (another metabolic process). We also must be able to maintain an equilibrium while conducting metabolism (homeostasis).
We need to be able to sense the environment around ourselves to survive. 
If you look at simple organisms, they are often able to detect different chemicals and know to be attracted or stay away from certain substances. 

All living things are made up of cells.
