Any time someone stop breathing it is called apneas or they apneic. In sleep a chronic condition that may happen is Sleep apneas, which are a group of disorders where some may experience the inability to breath. These can be caused by two things; Obstruction (OSA or obstructive sleep apneas) is where some obstruction usually via muscle relaxation of the tongue or throat causes those tissues to block the airway passage, and nervous system dysfunction (CSA or Complex (or central) sleep apneas) which are caused by the spontaneous stopping of breathing due to stopping of electrical communication between the brain and lungs.

For Sleep apneas two tools are regularity used; a Mandibular advancement device (a mouth piece the pulls the bottom part of the mouth forward, and/or a CPAP (continuous airway pressure machine) which forces airway into the passageways. On an interesting note CPAP is also used to treat those with chronic fluid buildup in their lungs.

Flauer [41]

The increase in tissue fluid leads to an increase in the <u>hydrostatic pressure</u> of tissue fluid, forcing fluid into the <u>lymphatic capillaries</u>. Fluid then flows through lymphatic vessels toward the lymphatic trunks.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Small, thin-walled micro-vessels are lymphatic capillaries that are located in the spaces between cells and process extracellular fluid. Plasma is a liquid part of the blood that carries cells and proteins throughout the body.

The hydrostatic pressure of the tissue fluid is increased by increasing the tissue fluid. The increased hydrostatic pressure forced the tissue fluid into the lymphatic capillaries. The tissue fluid is then flown towards the lymphatic trunks through the lymphatic vessels.

Yahaira is ready to reach the next level in her fitness. She is in great shape, but she still lacks the power needed to lift hea
finlep [7]
The correct answer is beach volleyball.

To lift an object, Yahaira will mostly need power in her legs. Since freestyle swimming and road cycling are heavily cardio activities, she will not gain a lot of muscle mass in her legs, which is what she needs. Flag football would also be mostly cardio, since she wouldn't be accruing muscle mass to tackle others.

The answer is beach volleyball, because in volleyball, the majority of the power has to come from your legs when you bump, set, or spike the ball. This will increase her muscle mass, which will help her in lifting heavy objects.

PolarNik [594]

Answer: It tests an employee believed to be impaired by drugs and unfit for work.

Explanation:

The testing also helps to identify the recent use of the illicit drugs, dose consumed and use of alcohol. The random testing does not test the impairment caused due to stress or other reasons.

The tests are done randomly on employees and these are likely inspection of the physical status of the employees to check whether they are using drugs and how drugs have affected and impaired the body which is making the employees unfit to perform their daily work. Those employees which are found illicit drug user are warned and expelled from the service.
