ATLS EXAM (QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS A+ GRADED 100% VERIFIED) True or false? Although the mechanism of injury may be similar to those for the younger population, data shows increased mortality with similar severity of injury in older adults. ANS: True In the elderly population, what is decreased physiological reserve? ANS: aging is characterized by impaired adaptive and homeostatic mechanisms that caused an increased susceptibility to the stress of injury. Insults tolerated by the younge...

1. E-D = ERV 160. A healthy 30-year-old woman is referred for a life insurance physical exam. History reveals that she has never smoked and vesicular breath sounds are heard at the periph- ery of the lung with aus- cultation. In the patient's spirometry tracing below, the expiratory reserve vol- ume (ERV) equals which of the following? 2. .21*380 = 80 mmHg 161. A group of third-year medical students accom- panied a medical mission team to Peru, South Amer- ica. After arriving at the air...

Resultant tidal forces are produced by: the difference between centripetal and gravitational forces. the force produced by Earth's rotation matched with the spin of the Moon. density forces balanced by the force of buoyancy. the Coriolis effect (not a true force) combined with Ekman transport. none of the above. correct answers the difference between centripetal and gravitational forces The reason that a lunar day is _________ a solar day is because__________________. longer than; ...

A 60-year-old man is found to be unresponsive, pulseless, and apneic. You should: Select one: A. start CPR and transport immediately. B. begin CPR until an AED is available. C. withhold CPR until he is defibrillated. D. determine if he has a valid living will. B. begin CPR until an AED is available. Basic life support (BLS) is defined as: Select one: A. basic lifesaving treatment that is performed by bystanders while EMS providers are en route to the scene of an emergency. B. non...

Io experiences tidal heating primarily because __________. correct answers Io's elliptical orbit causes the tidal force on Io to vary as it orbits Jupiter. As you learned in Part A, Io's elliptical orbit is necessary to its tidal heating. This elliptical orbit, in turn, is a result of the orbital resonance among Io, Europa, and Ganymede. This orbital resonance causes Io to have a more elliptical orbit than it would otherwise, because __________. correct answers Io periodically passes Europa...

The tide-generating force is inversely proportional to the cube of the distance. - True There is no horizontal tide-generating force on Earth at points directly below and opposite the Moon. - True The barycenter follows: - a smooth orbit around the Sun. The difference between centripetal forces and gravitational forces is called the: - resultant force. t A If the resultant force has a significant horizontal component (tangential to Earth's surface), it produces tidal bulges on Earth, cre...
