Surface tension is the property of water which allows for some lightweight insects to walk on top of a pond and not fall in. The molecules of water are held together by cohesive forces. The molecules of water present below the surface experience this cohesive force from all the directions, whereas the water molecules present on the surface experience a downward pull, as the force is not balanced. This leads to the concaving of the water surface inside a small tube.
C) water and energy ATP
The end products of respiration.
Answer:
The next dose will be 1 g of ampicillin after 4 hours.
Intrapartum antibiotic administration to women with group B that tested ampicillin or penicillin G, either antibiotic should first be considered for(2 g of ampicillin IV followed by 1 g every four hours until giving birth.
Explanation:
Group B streptococci (GBS) colonizes the vagina and rectum in 10–30% of pregnant women.1 In the newborn, GBS is a leading cause of neonatal sepsis and a major cause of pneumonia and meningitis.2
In 2002, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued guidelines to recommend that all pregnant women be screened at 35–37 weeks of gestation for GBS and, if positive, treated with intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis. The aims of prophylaxis are 1) to decrease colony counts at the time of delivery; 2) to prevent the organism from ascending and proliferating in the amniotic fluid compartment; and 3) to achieve adequate levels of effective antibiotic in the fetal bloodstream during labor.
For Ampicillin nonallergic patients, the protocol recommends a 2 g unit infusion of ampicillin, followed by 1 g every 4 hours until delivery.3 At least 4 hours of intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis are recommended.
Answer:
ZBWCYAX
Explanation:
Equation for the intermediates: Z↔W↔Y↔X
1) B catalyzes the breakdown of Z, therefore inhibiting B leads to the build up of Z.
2) If enzyme C is inactive then the organism will not receive Y to grow, thus Y is a by-product of C.
3) If A is inhibited then W, Y and Z build except for X, thus it make sense that A catalyzes a reaction that leads to X as a by-product.
4) Inhibiting C leads to the reaction toward making Z and W, thus it catalyzes the breakdown of C directly and Z indirectly.
