Mnenie [13.5K]
Under standard precautions, the nurse should wear the following when cleaning a newly admitted infant with gastroenteritis after a vomiting episode: a single pair of disposable gloves, long-sleeved disposable gowns, mask, and protective eyewear in order to prevent the splatter of the infant's vomit to the eyes, mouth, and nose.

What are the ways in which captive breeding helps protect biodiversity? Check all that apply
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Following are the ways captive breeding helps conserve biodiversity:

  1. Captive breeding can increase population numbers
  2. Captive breeding can help remove species from the Endangered Species List
  3. Captive breeding can result in the eventual release of offspring into the wild.

Explanation:

Captive Breeding:

Captive breeding is an ex-situ conservation technique (taking the animal out of its natural habitat to increase population numbers in zoos or sanctuaries). Captive breeding involves selective breeding of endangered species to help produce a sizable population that can later be introduced back into the wild when their habitat improves.

Captive breeding programs include zoos, sanctuaries located away from the animal's original habitat. For example, the Toronto Zoo has operated a captive breeding program for the Blanding's turtle since 2012. The turtles are kept their for 2 years after birth and then released back into the wild.

Why does your arm feel numb if you put too much pressure on it?
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

If your cartilage, muscles, or tendons put too much pressure on a nerve, it might not be able to work right. This can cause numbness. An injury or overuse can cause a pinched nerve. Sometimes it's due to health problems like arthritis, a narrowing of the spaces between the bones in your spine, or a tumor on the spine.
