Answer: ↓ Down below ↓

<em>(***Please read all of it, and add if you would like***)</em>

CPR: CPR is an emergency procedure for a person whose heart has stopped or is no longer breathing. When someone's blood flow or breathing stops, seconds count. Permanent brain damage or even death can occur. If you know how to perform CPR or Cardiopulmonary resuscitation, you could save someone's life. CPR can maintain circulation, blood flow, and breathing until medical help arrives. Even if you haven't had CPR training, you can do hands-only CPR for a teen or an adult whose heart has stopped beating. Hands-only CPR is not recommended for children. Hands-only CPR uses chest compressions to keep blood circulating until medical help has arrived. If you <em>have</em> had training, you can use chest compressions, clearing the airway, and do rescue breathing. Rescue breathing helps get oxygen to the lungs for a person who has stopped breathing.  To keep your skills in good form, you should repeat the training every two years which is highly recommended.

AED: An A<em>utomated External Defibrillator</em> (AED) is a medical device designed to analyze the heart rhythm and deliver an electric shock to one to restore the heart rhythm/beat back to normal. Uncoordinated heart rhythm is called Ventricular fibrillation. It's often responsible for sudden cardiac arrest, or sudden heartbeat stopping. Sudden cardiac arrests occur when ventricular fibrillation takes place or when the heart stops beating altogether. Without medical attention, the victim may collapse, lose consciousness, becomes unresponsive, and die. Many victims of cardiac arrest have no history of heart disease and are stricken without a warning. Chances of survival from sudden cardiac death diminish by 7 to 10% for each minute without immediate CPR. After 10 minutes, resuscitation rarely succeeds, and the patient or victim... dies.

<u>Natural gas is indoor pollutant</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

From the options given above smog and vehicle exhaust are outdoor pollutants. Oxygen is not a pollutant at all. The only option left is natural gas.

Determine what would happen to the rate of glycogen breakdown if a liver preparation containing glycogen phosphorylase is treate
My name is Ann [436]

The rate of glycogen breakdown is a muscle preparation containing glycogen phosphorylase is treated with (a) phosphorylase kinase increases and ATP; (b) PP1 decreases; (c) epinephrine increases.

Glycogen

In animals, fungi, and bacteria, glycogen is a multibranched polysaccharide of glucose that acts as a source of energy storage.  The primary form of glucose storage in the body is represented by the polysaccharide structure.

One of two types of energy reserves, glycogen is used for short-term storage, while the other type is triglyceride storage in adipose tissue (body fat), which is used for long-term storage. Glycogen is predominantly produced and stored in the liver and skeletal muscle cells of humans.  Glycogen can account for 5–6% of the liver's fresh weight, and an adult liver weighing 1.5 kg can hold about 100–120 grams of glycogen.
