Explanation:

She will feel pain in back which will spread around abdomen. It will then increase in frequency and intensity. She will see pinkish blood and mucus on her underwear and

clear fluid. When it comes to labor contractions, they usually begin in the back and expend through the abdomen. Cervical capillaries secrete blood as a result of pressure from the fetus. Leaking colostrum from the nipples will occur through the pregnancy. It’s not rare that a woman notices urinary incontinence.

Pretest: communication and child care

Deffense [45]

Explanation:

An important part of an early years childcare worker's job is the ability to communicate with a wide variety of people. The childcare worker must develop communication skills in order to work effectively with children, parents/carers, colleagues and other professionals. Good communication skills help with effective interaction.

Effective communication involves listening, understanding and responding to people. In order to develop listening skills, you need to pay attention to what's being said. You must think about what's being said and respond in a way that will encourage the person to keep talking. To show that they're paying attention, the childcare worker should ensure that they look at the person who's speaking and make eye contact without staring excessively. Asking questions will show an interest and it's important not to interrupt the speaker. You also need to make encouraging sounds and use short words or sentences.

Communication includes facial expressions and body language, e.g. gestures (non-verbal communication). You should respond to what's being said with facial expressions, e.g. a smile, a frown or a nod. A childcare worker can appear open, friendly or unfriendly depending on body language and tone of voice.

For others to be encouraged to listen, they need to feel comfortable so the childcare worker needs to make them feel at home. Standing too close to someone can make them feel uncomfortable, but standing too far away can give the impression that the childcare worker isn't interested in them. The body language of the listener can sometimes show whether or not they feel at home, and so you should try to respond appropriately to this.

Children often want to be close to an adult when speaking to them so the childcare worker should ensure that they go down to the children's level by sitting or crouching next to them. Standing above them can make them feel uncomfortable.

Key features of effective communication

seeing the effect of your words and gestures on others

Answer: Why the Body Needs to Defend Itself

Germs are everywhere! You're surrounded by all kinds of creepy crawlies, from bacteria to viruses to fungi. I'm not saying this to turn you into a germophobe. In fact, most of them are perfectly harmless, but there are some that can wreak havoc on your body. And it's because of those few, the ones that cause you to get sick, that our bodies have a sophisticated set of defense systems both inside and out. Let's talk about how these defense systems work.

The first lines of defense for your body are the external defense systems. These are the parts of your body designed to protect you from harmful outside agents by preventing them from getting into your body in the first place. Sometimes this can be a little confusing because, scientifically, there are several places you might think of as internal that are considered by biologists to be external. Your skin is external, so that's an easy one. But did you know that your stomach is external, too? Nasty stuff can be eaten by you and pass through your entire digestive system without anything bad ever entering your system. So your digestive pathways are actually external. External defense systems include your skin, tears, mucus, saliva, stomach acid, cilia (small hairs) and helpful bacteria in your bowel.

Your skin provides a physical block to stop bacteria and viruses from finding their way straight into your blood. It forms part of the integumentary system, which also includes your hair and nails, which trap dirt. Skin doesn't always work perfectly because you can get cuts that allow pathogens to find a way in, but on the whole, it's a pretty good block. It must be because the skin is usually teeming with bacteria. If you do end up getting cut and bleeding, cells called platelets rush to the sight of the cut and cause blood to clot into harder lumps. This stops the bleeding fast and protects your body.

Tears in your eyes and mucus in your nose and throat are also tasked with trapping these dangerous organisms if they try to make it into your body. This is important because some of the most common ways people get colds is by touching their eyes with dirty hands or breathing pathogens into their bodies. The cilia, or small hairs in your windpipe, also make this less likely by gradually pushing organisms back up towards your mouth and nose where they can be removed from the body.

If organisms can't be trapped, it's possible they can be killed with saliva or stomach acid. Saliva contains enzymes that break down the cell walls of many bacteria and stomach acid is highly corrosive and kills much of what remains. In a similar way, helpful bacteria in the lower gut can take care of much of what remains by outcompeting pathogens and making it harder for the dangerous stuff to establish itself.

A pharmacist is asked to compound 60 ml of an isotonic eye drop. drug x (a liquid with an e-value of 0.33) and sodium chloride w

Setler79 [48]

The correct answer is 500mg.

First convert the ratio strength to a percentage(0.2%).

Drug X accounts for 0.0396 g of NaCl.

It would require 0.54 g of NaCl if that was all we were using.

Lastly, 0.54 g - 0.0396 = ~ 0.5 g NaCl ( or 500 mg, rounded as per the instructions ).
