Answer:
a. preventing the cross-linkage of NAM subunits
Explanation:
The bacterial cell wall is made of peptidoglycan which is a polymer of alternating N-acetylglucosamine (NAG) and N-acetylmuramic acid (NAM) residues. The NAM residues are crosslinked to impart additional strength to the cell wall.
Most of the antibiotics that target the cell wall synthesis in bacteria inhibit the enzyme of transpeptidation which in turn cross-links the NAM residues of the polysaccharide chains of the bacterial cell wall. Examples of these antibiotics include penicillins and cephalosporins.
There are choices for this question namely:
<span>1 Pulse oximetry of 90%
2 Body temperature of 99° F
3 Heart rate of 40 bpm
4 Respiratory rate of 20 breaths per minute

The correct answer is "heart rate of 40 bpm". A heart rate of 40 bpm is classified as bradycardia. Bradycardia is defined as a slow heart rate below 60 bpm. A heart rate below 50 bpm is more than alarming to the health practitioner and suctioning should be stopped to give way for immediate intervention. A oxygen saturation of 90%, while below normal range of 95%-100%, is still considered safe. A body temperature of 99 degrees F and a respiratory rate of 20 breaths per minute is considered normal.
Levels of organization in ecology include the population, community , ecosystem, and biosphere.
Answer:
carbon dioxide is more soluble in water than oxygen and hence is mostly transported in the dissolved form in our blood.
Carbon dioxide can be transported through the blood via three methods. It is dissolved directly in the blood, bound to plasma proteins or hemoglobin, or converted into bicarbonate.
The majority of carbon dioxide is transported as part of the bicarbonate system.
Goodluck
