Chapter 6 Measuring Vital Signs Unit 1: Temperature‚ Pulse‚ and Respiration UNIT RATIONALE Important indicators of your patient’s/client’s health status are known as vital signs. Vital signs give you information about breathing‚ body temperature‚ and the heart. They are a good indication of how well the body systems are functioning. As a health care worker‚ you need to observe patients whenever you are near them. Your knowledge of vital signs and how to measure them helps you know when to report

Aim:- To investigate the effect of changing the temperature of glycerin on the index of refraction. In this experiment I will be using a simple method‚ which needs the following materials 40ml of glycerin in a beaker‚ protractor‚ a pencil‚ a laser‚ a paper to draw boundaries‚ circular plastic plates‚ hotplate‚ ruler and a digital thermometer. In this experiment 1 trial will be conducted for glycerin with 70 Celsius degrees ‚66‚62‚58‚ and another trial with 10 Celsius degrees. Scientific Background:-

different temperature on the cell respiration. Introduction： Cell respiration is the controlled release of energy from organic compounds in cells to form ATP‚and then release waste products. The process of cell respiration can take place in the presence or absence of oxygen. In either case‚the first stage of cell respiration is glycolysis.The effect of temperature on cell respiration mainly depends on the effect of temperature on of enzyme activity.Generally speaking in a certain temperature range

The effect of temperature on the permeability of cell membranes Introduction For my coursework‚ I intend to assess how temperature affects the plasma membrane of a cell. For this I will use the cell of a beetroot. Background What is a cell membrane? The cell membrane‚ also called the plasma membrane is a semipermeable lipid bilayer which is the surface of all cells that surrounds the cytoplasm. The membrane is called a bilayer as it has a double layer of phospholipids. Within the cell membrane

The effect of Temperature on the Xylem of Tomato Plants Question: How does temperature affect the Xylem in Tomato Plants? Introduction: Throughout this experiment I will be testing the size of the Xylem in Roma tomato plants when exposed to different temperatures. I will be placing six Roma Tomatoes in six different area which will each be in different temperatures. After three weeks of constantly watering the tomato plants with blue dyed water I will cut the plant from the root and examine

Optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) The anatomy of the optic nerve sheath : The intraorbital section of the optic nerve extends from the globe‚ where it inserts medially‚ to the optic canal located in the lesser wing of the sphenoid bone. It is encased by a meningeal sheath consisting of dura mater‚ arachnoid mater and pia mater. Cerebrospinal fluid is contained in the trabeculated subarachnoid space and is continuously and slowly filtered. As a result the optic nerve sheath is in direct

Niels Bohr’s model of the hydrogen atom‚ was the primary reason for the understanding of energy levels.Bohr was able to explain the bright line spectrum of hydrogen. Sparked by the recent discovery of the diffraction patterns‚ scientists believed electrons could be described as waves. Bohr hypothesized that energy is being added to the hydrogen gas in the electricity form‚ and then leaving the gas in the form of light. He figured the light rays to be quantized‚ meaning only certain frequencies of

Effects of Temperature on Beetroot Cell Membranes Background Information: A cell membranes is a thin structure that surrounds the whole cell. It contains the cytoplasm of a cell. The cell membrane is made up of hydrophilic region and a hydrophobic region. The hydrophilic region likes water‚ it is on the outside of the cell‚ the hydrophobic region is the inside of the cell where its protected from H2O. The cell membrane’s outer surface lets larger molecules into the cell. The inner surface deals
