Lloyd recognizes you’ve taken the last 2 charts and opts to take the next one. You are dispatched for a 35 y/o female experiencing an asthma attack. Other than asthma, her history includes depression and anxiety. Her vitals on scene are BP 80/40, HR 140, SPO2 66%, RR 22 and shallow. She appears lethargic and unable to follow directions. She appears to weigh approximately 125 lbs. 1. (1 points) What potential V/Q mismatch is the patient experiencing? Explain why. 2. (1 point) Despite Lloyd’s attempts at oxygenating and aggressive use of nebs and epinephrine, the patient begins to become unresponsive. He asks you to get ready for an RSI. What medications would be selected, what route, and what order (to include time between) would be appropriate? 3. (3 points) Lloyd goes for the tube. After placing the blade in the mouth, he pushes the ETT forward, pulls the stylet out, and asks for the bag. “I watched it go through” he states as you begin to bag the patient. The ETCO2 shows: What has occurred here, how do you address it, and what are the next appropriate steps. Be specific in your process for this situation.

Population sizes in the coastal areas have been reasonably large, and there are significant differences between the coastal and the mountain habitats. The coastal habitat is more open (making birds more visible) and has a lower junco density (decreasing intraspecific competition) than the mountain forests. Given this information, which of the following evolutionary mechanisms is the most likely cause of the difference between the coastal and mountain populations?

Consider the following program: public class ClassNameHere {  public static int methodA(String s) {     System.out.print(“A”);     int x = s.length() ; // NullPointerException here      return x;   }   public static void main(String[] args) {     try {         int y = methodA(null); System.out.print(“B”);        System.out.print(“C”);     } catch (NullPointerException e) {        System.out.print(“D”);      } catch (Exception e) {        System.out.print(“E”);     } finally {         System.out.print(“F”); }   }}   Which of the following will print out when the program is run?  Select all values the print out.

A movie theater has seats arranged in a rectangular grid of rows and columns.  The grid stores the value true to mean that the seat is available for purchase and false to represent the seat is not available.  Below is a small sized grid to demonstrate this: false true true true false false true false true false false false false false true true false true false true true true true false   You will complete the method below that finds a block of adjacent seats in a row, if it exists.  If it does not exist, -1 will be returned.  If a block of seats is available, the index of the lowest column number will be returned.    The following table shows different possible calls to the method and the resulting int returned: call result  explanation find(available, 0, 2) 1     a block of 2 seats exists in row 0 starting a col 2 find(available, 0, 4) -1    no block of 4 seats in row 0 exists find(available, 1, 2) 6     a block of 2 seats exists in row 1 starting a col 6 find(available, 2, 2) 3     a block of 2 seats exists in row 2 starting a col 3 find(available, 2, 4) 3     a block of 2 seats exists in row 2 starting a col 4   Complete the dropdowns to write the method.  Ignore any small syntax errors, they are unintentional.    public static int find(boolean [][] available, int row, int seatsNeeded) {    int countAdjacent = 0;    int firstSeatAvailable = 0;    for [line1]      if (available[row][col] == true) {        if [line2]         [line3]        }       [line4]        if [line5]         [line6]        } else {         [line7]        }      } else {       [line8]      }    }   [line9]  }

Which of these does not have a transverse plane action at the knee? 

  Extra Credit worth 5 points:  A square current loop, A, has a circular current loop, B, inscribed perfectly inside it.  Both loops have the same current.  If the magnetic field due to the square loop at the center point C is 9 μT, what is the magnetic field at C due to the circular loop?  Start from the Biot Savart law, show all steps, and select closest answer.
