Biology

BlackZzzverrR [31]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Not very successful considering the fact that there is still acid rain even with more advances in technology such as the development of hydroelectric power plants and other renewable forms of energy so as to reduce the continuous burning of fossil fuels.

Explanation:

Acid rain is produced when sulfur and nitrogen in their oxide forms are released into the atmosphere where they get to meet with water and other chemicals. Since water contains hydrogen and oxygen, it reacts with sulfur and nitrogen in their oxide form to produce weak acids which come down to the earth as it rains. Fossil fuel combustion is a man-made practice of releasing sulfur and nitrogen in their oxide form into the atmosphere which eventually results in acid rain.

lord [1]
The correct answer is to obtain a thorough history of the seizure type and incidence. The patient is already taking phenytoin for 10 years so there must be an underlying seizure disorder. The type of the seizure (absence, tonic-clonic, etc.) should be characterized as this will affect the management of the patient. Placing an airway in a patient without respiratory distress is unnecessary and may even produce traumatic injury to the patient. Asking to remove dentures and eyeglasses is also unnecessary.
