For a 2 year old patient who was severely dyspneic and now unresponsive and no longer breathing, you will instruct your EMT to insert an OPA and begin give positive pressure ventilations with a BVM with 100% O2 to the patient. Palpate for a pulse and if <10 seconds you cannot feel a pulse, you will begin chest compressions.


The good thing about respiratory codes in children is that they normally always code due to lack of oxygenation. Once they are finally re-oxygenated, they will typically come around with better vitals.

In an experiment, a certain colony of bacteria initially has a population of 50,000. A reading is taken every 2 hours, and at th
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

1) Recursive definition: p_n = (50,000)3^n

2) At the beginning of the 4th interval

Explanation:

1)

The initial population of the bacteria at time zero is

p_0 = 50,000

Here we are told that the reading is taken every two hours; we call this time interval "n", so

n=2 h

And also, after every time interval n, the number of bacteria has tripled.

This means that when n = 1,

p_1 = 3 p_0

And when n=2,

p_2 = 3 p_1 = 3(3p_0)=9 p_0

Applied recursively, we get

p_n = 3^n p_0

And substituting p0,

p_n = (50,000)3^n (1)

2)

Here we want to find at the beginning of which interval there are

p=1,350,000

bacteria.

This means that we can rewrite eq.(1) as

1,350,000=(50,000)3^n

By simplifying,

27=3^n

Which means that

n=3

However, this means that the number of bacteria is 1,350,000 after 3 time intervals; therefore, at the beginning of the 4th interval.

What does it mean when it says that aerobic respiration occurs in the cytoplasm “TO” the mitochondria???
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Kerb cycle

<u>Explanation</u>:

The result from mitochondria is ATP, that acts as a currency of the energy in the cell. In the cytoplasm of mitochondria kerb cycle occurs. In this process it has several other process, once it uses acetate and water to give NADH from NAD+ and gives carbon dioxide as waste. The NADH formed is fed by oxidative phosphorylation or electron transport. The outcome of these processes is oxidation of nutrients to give chemical energy in ATP form.

kaheart [24]
<span>Our body uses glucose for our main source of energy. We take in many sugars in our diet. Break down of these sugar begin in the mouth by saliva. The majority of break down and absorption of sugars occur in the small intestine. Sugars are broken down to monosaccharides to include glucose which is the main source used to produce energy in our body by cellular respiration. </span>
