While performing nasotracheal suctioning, the nurse notices that the client has blood pressure of 90/70 and a heart rate of 50 beats per minute. what is the priority nursing intervention in this situation?

Nasotracheal suctioning  remove fluids or mucus collecting in the airways so the patient can breathe. It literally suctions the airways through a tube threaded into the nose, so it is a delicate procedure. The values you mentioned indicate that the patient is experiencing bradycardia (slowed heartbeat) and hypotension (low blood pressure). Bradycardia and hypotension while doing nasotracheal suctioning indicate that the patient is not tolerating the procedure. In that case, stop suctioning right away and remove the catheter; that is the first priority. Then provide supplemental oxygen (on face mask if possible), and call the doctor.

desert perennials often survive by remaining dormant during dry periods of the year, then springing to life when water becomes available. most annual desert plants germinate only after heavy seasonal rain, then complete their reproductive cycle very quickly.

the two answers are a, the population of birds with large beaks will increase on the island, and c, the trait for large beaks will be passed on to future generations through natural selection. the reason for that is because if the birds that have beaks developed for eating small seeds lose all of their food, they will go hungry and eventually starve because they physically cannot eat the large seeds, therefore making the population of large beaked birds higher. also, if the trait of large beaks are dominant on the island over small beaks, then over time the large beaked birds will reproduce more and more, while the smaller beaked birds will reproduce less and less because they can't survive with the food provided. that leads to the trait of small beaks disappearing and the trait of large beaks taking over the island.
