The correct answer is "High systolic, because when the heart pumps, the pressure inside the aorta would be greatest, causing the weak spot to rupture outward".

High systolic means the pressure generated due to the contraction of heart. As soon as heart will contract it will tend to squeeze out the blood accumulated inside it. Because of this out rush, this blood will enter the aorta and exert great pressure on the walls of the aorta. This high pressure will impact weak spot in the aorta adversely and cause it to bulge out.

<span>I believe the answer is,

High systolic, because when the heart pumps, the pressure inside the aorta would be greatest, causing the weak spot to rupture outward.

This indicates high blood pressure that causes rupture of the aorta or aorta dissection.</span>

olga55 [171]

Phlebotomy refers to a collection of venous blood. This operation can be practiced on all the superficial veins of the body, on those of the foot, the leg, the neck, the whole upper limb. It must be done in an area where there is a protruding vein and the least sensitive to limit pain to the patient. It should not be done in an altered, injured or infected area (like bruise)

The blood is collected on tubes with or without anticoagulant according to the analyzes that one wants to practice.

The reason for choosing the sampling site is for the most part practical, the veins are easily identifiable, and easily accessible for paramedical personnel. Their collection is less dangerous than that of arteries, which are generally thinner and close to the peripheral nerves.

Natalka [10]

Answer:

Hilda and her family are going on a sailing trip this summer, and Hilda is especially interested in spotting dolphins. In which zone of the ocean is Hilda most likely to spot dolphins? Hilda and her family are most likely to spot dolphins in the PELAGIC zone. To view shorebirds and crabs, Hilda should move towards the INTERTIDAL zone.

Explanation:

The Pelagic Zone

It is any water in an ocean or lake that can not be said to be positioned in proximity to the shore or in proximity to the bottom (the shore and the bottom are two distinct zones with a completely different properties.

Divisions of the Pelagic Zone

It can be grouped into subzones based on depth, we have the epipelagic, close to the top of the zone which as light been present, and the abyssopelagic, is nearer to the bottom with light being absent.

The intertidal zone

Its found between the high tide (upper limit) and low tide lines (lower limit), majorly on the beach at the water's edge.

The major attribute of the intertidal zone is that it is immersed with water at high tide and is in exposure to the air at lower limit. The intertidal zone is usually undergoing alterations leading to organisms that are uniquely adapted to strive there.

Organisms found in this zone are sea stars, crabs, mussels, barnacles, and various corals as they well situated to strive immersed in water and a region of their lives open air at lower limit.
