The term "pericardiocentesis" means:

select one:

a. narrowing of the arteries supplying the heart.

b. surgical repair of the sac around the heart.

c. the removal of fluid from around the heart.

d. a surgical opening made in the heart.

Option (C)

Explanation:

'Pericardiocentesis' is a biological term that is usually defined as a process by which a fluid is removed from the sac that is oriented around the heart. This accumulation of fluid in the heart is commonly known as pericardial effusion. This process is mainly carried out with the help of a needle and a catheter, where the needle is injected into the tissues that are near to the heart.

This fluid that is eliminated from the body is further sent to the laboratories in order to carry out the medical test to determine if a person is affected by infection or cancer.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

because it says use -2,0,and 2 for x, we can plug those numbers into the equation. y/4=3/4(-2)+2   y/4= -1 1/2 +2 now to get x by itself, we can multiply each side by 4. y=-6+8 which equals y=2 when x=-2. now you can do the same thing with 0 and 2 as x. you get y=8 when x=0 and y=14 when x=2.

x   |   y

-2 |   2

0   |   8

2   |   14
