Apatient is dehydrated and needs fluids in his cells. which type of iv solution will cause water to enter his cells? (dok 1 aks 2a) a. a hypertonic solution b. an isotonic solution c. a solution with a high salt concentration d. a hypotonic solution

D

Explanation:

A hypotonic solution means it is less concentrated in relations to the other solution – in this case the patient’s cells. The electrolytes that balance osmotic pressure in the body are sodium, potassium, chlorides, calcium, and etcetera. The IV needs to have less electrolytes so that when the IV is injected into the patient’s blood the water can move into the cells by osmosis. Osmosis continues until the cell cytoplasm is in osmotic equilibrium with the blood. It is imporant, therefore, to have the right electrolyte balance in the IV solution otherwise the cell will over-hydrate and begin lysing – especially if the kidneys of the patient do not rid excess water fast enough.  

from my research i have to the conclusion that decomposers, such as fungi, bacteria and invertebrates, play a critical role in nutrient cycling and without them the earth's ecosystem may not support life as we know it. elements such as carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus exist in limited amounts on earth, although huge amounts of carbon are being released into the atmosphere from underground sources now by humans. it is still extremely important that other nutrients be retained by the process of re-use. decomposers are organisms that are able to chemically break down dead material and make these elements available for use by other organisms. without this breakdown of dead material, dead bodies would pile up. so decomposers also play a role in clean up also. without them, life might not continue as we know it and dead material would overwhelm the earth.    

the answer is c) an oak tree
