Biology
1 answer:
Natali [406]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

This tool is divided into three sections representing the principles in the Medication practice standard: authority, competence, and safety.

Explanation:

Rights of Medication Administration

1. Right patient

  • Check the name of the order and the patient.
  • Use 2 identifiers.
  • Ask patient to identify himself/herself.

2. Right medication

  • Check the medication label.
  • Check the order.

3. Right dose

  • Check the order.
  • Confirm the appropriateness of the dose using a current drug reference.

4. Right route

  • Again, check the order and appropriateness of the route ordered.
  • Confirm that the patient can take or receive the medication by the ordered route.

5. Right time

  • Check the frequency of the ordered medication.
  • Double-check that you are giving the ordered dose at the correct time.
  • Confirm when the last dose was given.

6. Right documentation

  • Document administration AFTER giving the ordered medication.
  • Chart the time, route, and any other specific information as necessary.

7. Right reason

  • Confirm the rationale for the ordered medication.  What is the patient’s history? Why is he/she taking this medication?

8. Right response

  • Make sure that the drug led to the desired effect.  If an antihypertensive was given, has his/her blood pressure improved?
  • Does the patient verbalize improvement in depression while on an antidepressant?

Assuming dragon genetics follows the same rules as fruit flies, what ratio of genotypes would you expect if the genes were not l
andrew11 [14]

Assuming dragon genetics follow the same rules as fruit flies, we would get the same possible genotype for all 16 offspring provided that the genes are not linked.

Considering dragon genetics, flame eyes (F) are dominant to blue eyes (f) and burbling (B) is dominant to whistling (b).

Now, a dihybrid cross between two homozygous blue-eyed, whistling dragons will yield 16 offspring all with the same possible genotype .i.e. homozygous blue-eyed, whistling type.

Morgan through experiments on fruit flies observed that when the two genes in a dihybrid cross were situated on the same chromosome, the proportion of parental gene combination were much higher than the non-parental type.

He attributed this due to the physical association or linkage of the two genes and coined the term 'linkage' to describe the physical association of genes on a chromosome. The term 'recombination' is to describe the generation of non-parental gene combination.

So, I’m not too sure on how to answer this
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Whatever has the most unprotected land.

Explanation:

I cannot see which country is the lightest color/shade of grey on your paper in the picture, but if you see, its given you a meter of 'greatest percentage of protected land.' The darker color being more protected than the lighter. this corresponds with the map. Find the country with the lightest color, state it, and say why. (Use the meter as your reasoning)

If this makes sense, I hope it helps! :)
