The result of this treatment will decrease the osmotic pressure of the blood, causing the cell is losing water molecule by osmosis. 
Administering pure water as resuscitation fluid might also lower the concentration of electrolyte in the blood, causing electrolyte imbalance. It is recommended to use normal saline(0.9% NaCl) solution for resuscitation as the solution is having the same osmotic pressure, thus won't inducing osmosis.

How does a single change in nitrogen base alter the formation of a protein
jasenka [17]


During translation to RNA, the nitrogen bases on the DNA molecule are translated to complementary RNA bases. Afterwards, these bases are again used to form amino acids.
Three bases make up a codon, which codes for a specific amino acid. If a base is changed, the codon will become changed. This will result in a different amino acid being produced in and the primary structure of the polypeptide will be altered.

The aberrant twitching of muscles that are stimulated (innervated) by the facial nerve  (also known as Cranial Nerve Seven, or CNVII) is known as the Chvostek sign.

The facial muscles on the same side of the face will occasionally contract when the facial nerve is touched in front of the ear (called ipsilateral facial spasm). Frequently, the muscles that regulate the nose, lips, and brows will spasm.
