A patient is brought to the hospital unconscious and is a known diabetic patient. The medic was unable to get a bedside glucose

reading. Upon analysis, the laboratorian got a glucose reading of 800++ mg/dL. The ++ means the concentration is higher than the analyzer can read. As a laboratorian, explain how you would do a 1/2 dilution and what the patients actual result is if the analyzer reports a 459 mg/dL sugar following the dilution.

Answer: 918 mg/dl would be the actual blood glucose level. 459 X 2 = 918.

The lab technician adds equal amounts of the plasma sample to an equal amount of the dilution, ie 1:1.

An IV bag of 500 mL solution is started at 1900. The flow rate is 38 gtts per minute, and the drop factor is 10 gtts per mL. At
Ronch [10]

Answer: your bag will finish at 2112.

Explanation: (38gtt/min) × (10gtt/ml).

Cross multiply. (38gtt×1ml) × (1min×10gtt)

This gives you 38/10...and the gtts cancel out so, it's 38ml/10min.

Simplify this to 3.8 ml/min.

Now, 3.8ml/x min = 500 ml.

Take 500/3.8. This gives you about 132 minutes if you round to the nearest minute. 60 min/he means 132 min = 2h12m. 2h12m from 1900 is 2112.

Please compare and contrast the following three theories of intelligence: Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences, Rob
Maslowich

The three theories are correlated trying to unravel the mysteries of the mind, claiming that there are different types of mind and intellect.

<h3>Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences</h3>

He believes that intelligence can be approached from various aspects and that individuals have different types of minds, thus presenting different intelligences.

<h3>Robert Sternberg's Triarchic Theory of Intelligence</h3>

The triarchic theory articulates three sub-theories expressly referring to the internal world (information processing), the external world (interaction with the environment), and the role of intelligence in adapting to both (the mediating individual experiences).

<h3>Spearman's "G Factor" theory </h3>

This set of positive correlations between tests of different abilities was called the general intelligence factor, or “g”. ... General intelligence theorists claim that "the positive correlation between all tests of cognitive abilities is an inexorable fact of nature.

With this information we can conclude that the three theories about intelligence try to understand the human intellect.

jasenka [17]

Answer:

The correct option is : a. serous fluid in the pericardial cavity

Explanation:

The heart is enclosed in a sac containing the heart, known as the  pericardium. The pericardium has two layers- fibrous and serous layer.

The serous layer of the pericardium produces and secretes the pericardial fluid into the pericardial cavity.

The pericardial fluid is a lubricating serous fluid present in the pericardial cavity. It reduces the friction caused between the pericardial membranes by lubricating the epicardial surface.
