Answer:

Water pollution is known to be a growing problem of 21st century all over the world. As a result of water pollution, pure water is transferred to less scare day by day. The most unique advantage of aquatic environment is the existence of life, and the most special feature of life is its biodiversity. There are many reasons for water pollution that affected negatively biodiversity. The planet’s biological diversity is affected greatly by any human activity. Six threats affect aquatic biodiversity; climate change, overexploitation, water pollution, habitat degradation, flow modification and exotic species invasion. Biodiversity maintenance is considered one of the leading keys to ecosystem services retention. So it can be said that the ultimate challenge nowadays is the protection of freshwater biodiversity.

Answer:

apply direct pressure to the injury site while manually stabilizing the stick in her arm

Explanation:

Spinal immobilization can generally be explained as the use of adjuncts such as cervical collar, that are being applied to minimize movement of the spinal column.

In this case, since the area where the girl is injured is the forearm, it has no direct connection with the spinal column, this means that, the cervical spinal immobilization is unnecessary.

Therefore, there should be direct application of pressure to the injury site while manually stabilizing the stick in her arm.

A diabetic, who does not utilize insulin properly, will metabolize fats instead of glucose. A condition called diabetic ketoacid

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:The correct answer to the question is option D

THE PH IS BELOW NORMAL (ACIDIC) BECAUSE THE BUFFERING CAPACITY WAS EXCEEDED.

Explanation: When insulin is being utilized well by a diabetic,glucose is metabolized because the insulin administered helps the body cells to pick up glucose from the food we eat and convert it to energy for the body to work with and function well.But when insulin is not being utilized properly by a diabetic,fats are metabolized instead of glucose that is to say that,the cells in the body are not sensitive to the glucose supplied by the food we eat which makes the body to be hypoglycemic (low blood glucose level),the body inorder to raise the blood glucose level starts breaking down stored fats in the body at a rate that is higher than normal inorder to provide energy, the liver then processes the broken down fats into a fuel that is known as ketones, these ketones are released into the blood causing the blood to be acidic,the buffering property of blood on a normal note is suppose to resist the changes in the PH of the blood,but when the buffering capacity is exceeded,there won't be any resistance to the change in the blood PH which will inturn lower the blood PH level making it acidic.

This is exactly what happened to the diabetic being described in the question.
