Question

question 7 (1 point) listen blood pressure measures the strength of the and of the ventricles of the heart. question 8 (1 point) listen a diabetic patient who is pale and sweating, confused, and uncoordinated should be given.

Explanation:

Question 7

Blood pressure is related to the force and relaxation (or contraction - more precisely, the systolic (contraction) and diastolic (relaxation) phases) of the ventricles. The first blank is "contraction" (systolic pressure is from ventricular contraction) and the second is "relaxation" (diastolic pressure is from ventricular relaxation, or more accurately, the pressure during the relaxation phase after contraction). But more accurately, blood pressure measures the strength of the contraction and the relaxation (or the pressure during contraction (systole) and relaxation (diastole)) of the ventricles. So the first blank: contraction, second blank: relaxation (or the correct terms are systolic (contraction) and diastolic (relaxation - related to the pressure when ventricles relax)).

A diabetic patient with pale skin, sweating, confusion, and uncoordination is likely experiencing hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). The treatment for hypoglycemia is to give a source of fast - acting carbohydrate, such as glucose (in the form of fruit juice, glucose tablets, candy with sugar, etc.). So the patient should be given glucose (or a fast - acting sugar source like fruit juice, glucose tablets, etc.).

Answer:

First blank: contraction; Second blank: relaxation (or more precisely, for blood pressure, systolic (contraction) and diastolic (the pressure when ventricles relax, so the second could be "diastolic" related to relaxation, but the question asks for the strength of the [action] and [action] of the ventricles. So contraction (systole) and relaxation (diastole - the pressure during relaxation, but the action of the ventricles: contraction and relaxation. So the answers are "contraction" and "relaxation".
