Isotopes

Atoms of the same element; number of protons remain the same, number of neutrons vary. Chemical properties remain the same. Atomic mass varies.

Na sodium with 11 neutrons = atomic mass of 22

With 22 neutrons the mass is 23.

Both have 11 protons in the nucleus.

Which statement by the nurse is most appropriate when addressing a client with a barbiturate overdose who awakens in a confused
Lynna [10]

Which of the following statements by the nurse is most appropriate when addressing a client with a barbiturate overdose who awakens in a confused state and exhibits stable vital signs?

1. "I'm here to help you beat your drug habit. But it's you who will need to work hard."

2. "It's time to get straight and stay clean and put an end to your torture."

3. "I'm glad you pulled through; it was touch and go with you for a while."

4. "You're in the hospital because of a drug problem; I'm one of the nurses who will help you."

Answer:

4. "You're in the hospital because of a drug problem; I'm one of the nurses who will help you."

Explanation:

Clients like the client in the question given above, who is in a confused state, need to be addressed in a calm and reassuring manner and in easy to understand terms. This would enable the client to better understand his situation and allay whatever anxiety that might arise.

Statement 1, 2 and 3 all contain vague and confusing words that seem judgmental, which will only confuse the patient the more and make him anxious.

Statement 4 is the most appropriate statement the nurse can make in addressing the client in his confused state of mind.

In Indian cuisine, sometimes a papaya is added to make meat cook faster. Why does this method work?  

A- Papaya helps increase the temperature of the meat, hastening the cooking process.

B-Papaya has the enzyme papain, which tenders the meat tissues, hastening the cooking process

<u> C-Papaya has the enzyme papain, which increases the pH of the meat recipe, hastening the cooking process.</u>

Name the area on a cladogram that represents the point from which the species split from the ancestor.
Rama09 [41]

Answer: Node

Explanation:

Cladograms are a graphical representation of the evolutionary relationship between organisms. These are usually shown as branches from a central point, which represents a common ancestor. In rooted cladograms, the branches are shown relative to the time elapsed since evolving from a common ancestor joined at the node, or point of divergence.

Evolution typically occurs after accumulating mutation, and natural selection of beneficial traits that confer greater chances for survival.

A expresses dna that has been derived from another species. 2. dna that has been altered to contain genes, or portions of genes,
OlgaM077 [116]
1. A transgenic organism expresses DNA that has been derived from another species. These organisms have altered genomes and are generated in the laboratory for the purposes of research, for example, the "knock-out" mice are tansgenic mice with a particular gene of interest disabled. 
2. Recombinant DNA is the DNA that has been altered to contain genes, or portions of genes, from different organisms. The DNA molecules are formed in the lab using recombination methods to bring together genetic material from multiple sources and therefore creating sequences that are not found in the genome. 
3. Restriction enzymes are found naturally in bacteria and they cut DNA at specific nucleotide sequences. These enzymes are also called restriction endonucleases, they cleave DNA into fragments at or near specific recognition sites called restriction sites. They are found in bacteria and archaea and they serve to provide a defense mechanism against invading viruses.
4. Biotechnology is the use or alteration of organisms, cells, or biological molecules to produce food, drugs, or other goods. Living systems and organisms are used to make or develop products. Biotechnology enhances cellular and biomolecular processes to develop technologies and product for the purposes of improving life and health. 
5. Polymerase chain reaction is a technique that is used to quickly synthesize billions of copiies of a specific segment of DNA.  It is a quick and a very efficient way to generate many copies of DNA.  The process is applicable when there are small quantities of DNA to analyze. The events of PCR involves; separation of DNA strands, addition of primers, use of DNA polymerase to produce second strand of DNA. 
6. In the process known as transformation, bacteria take up pieces of DNA from the surroundings. Bacterial transformation results from the uptake of naked DNA (DNA without associated cells or proteins). Transformation may also occur naturally in some species of bacteria.
