<span>A nurse can apply pressure support hose. When this type of patient becomes pregnant, there is a reduction in blood flow through the pulmonary circulation. This increases hypoxemia. If it is not properly managed, the patient could die. The nurse needs to maintain the venous return in the patient.</span>
<span>Generally speaking ,karyotyping, can determine the gender of an individual and the presence/
absence of chromosomal defects which could lead to disabilities ,diseases and
problems in the person’s growth and development, as well as the probability
which it could be passed on to the offspring. This is done through the evaluation
of the number, shape, size, and position of the chromosomes within a body cell. </span>
<span>Sesamoid bones are small masses embedded in some tendons and are usually located in places where a tendon passes over a joint.Their functions are to adjust the pressure, to decrease friction, and to change the direction of a muscle pull.Thus, protecting the tendon, and improving its mechanical function.</span>
Natural Selection is when traits are "naturally" selected for, because "survival of the fitttest." Example would be a species becoming bigger over time, because the smaller animals of that species were more likely to be eaten by predators. Natural selection is when the "best" trats are passed down due to chance
Selective breeding is if an outside forece (like a dog breeder) "chooses" a triat to be passed down. Example, instead of breeding a brown dog with a white dog, the breeder breeds two black dogs together in orer for the litter to all have black fur
Answer:
The skinfold method, the measurement of subcutaneous fat folds, is the most widely adopted field method for the assessment of body fat, especially in children.
It is based on the principle that fat is of a known density and by “summing” measurements of subcutaneous fat thickness across the body, total and regional fat can be estimated.
Skinfold thickness measurements are typically used to rank individuals in terms of relative total “fatness”, or to assess subcutaneous fat at various regions of the body.
Population specific equations are used to derive estimates of percent body fat.
In infancy, it might be the sole tool available for assessing body composition longitudinally as other methods may not be feasible, or may only be suitable for use at body sizes e.g. PEA POD, can only measure infants up to 10kg.
