Answer:

C. Homeostasis

Explanation:

"Homeostasis" refers to the process of maintaining the body's equilibrium. The body tries to adjust to different stimuli in order to help it function in normal ranges. For example, when a person is exposed to a cold weather all of a sudden,<em> the person starts to shiver in order to maintain homeostasis</em>. <em>Shivering</em> is a contraction of the muscles that <em><u>allows the generation of heat</u></em>.

On the contrary, when a person is exposed to the sun during summer,<em> his body will start to sweat in order to maintain homeostasis</em>. <em>Sweating</em> allows the heat to dissipate from the body thereby lowering the body's temperature.

geniusboy [140]

The question is incomplete,below is the complete question.

Mr. B has been transferred to your floor to wait and see whether the chest tube allows his lungs to completely re-expand. But when he arrives, he is in severe respiratory distress. He says "I felt better before I came into the ER! Is this tube doing anything?"

You tell the Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS). As the two of you move him into the bed, you notice that his chest tube bottle is lying on its side on the gurney, with air going into it. When you point this out to the CNS, she immediately grabs the bottle and sets it upright on the floor. You see air start bubbling through the fluid right away. "That was the problem!" she says. "They lost the water seal, and air was going into his chest from the bottle. You would not believe how many times that happens on transport." When you examine Mr. B, you have trouble detecting his lung sounds on the left. Even stranger, his apical heart sound is in the wrong place - it is over toward the right side of his chest. His respiration rate and heart rate are both increased, and he is struggling to breathe. "Let's give him a little oxygen. He'll be a lot better in a half-hour," says the CNS. "Check back on him."

QUESTION - Why would accumulation of air in his pleural space cause his heart sounds to be in the wrong place?

Accumulation of air in Mr B pleural space will cause his heart sound to be heard in the wrong place because the left side is his chest is being filled up with air making the organs in his chest to to be pushed over to the right side.
