Anurse is assessing a newborn in the well baby nursery. what type of respirations does the nurse expect to identify in a healthy newborn?

    Due to the shape of the airway, babies breathe almost completely through their noses and at a much faster rate than adults. If mom and dad breathe between 16 and 20 times per minute, the newborn breathes three times faster, reaching values between 40 and 60 times per minute.

carbohydrates: (starches and sugars) composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

lipids: (fats, oils, and waxes) are made of carbon and hydrogen atoms.

nucleic acids: contain hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, and phosphorus. they are polymers of nucleotides. a nucleotide has three parts, a 5-carbon sugar, a phosphate     (-po⬇️4) group, and a nitrogenous base.

proteins: made up of nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. they are polymers of amino acids.
