A patient was on saline I.V. cefotoxine 1G IV was given through the I.V. The patient developed severe burning althrough the hand. Later, gangrene resulted and ten days thereafter his right thumb and right digits 1,2,3 were amputated. It is case of medical negligence. I want all details as to how inadvertent inra-arterial injection could be given, its associated symptoms and the resulting consequences.

Five pirates raid the ship of a wealthy bureaucrat and steal his trunk of
gold pieces. By the time they get the trunk aboard, dusk has fallen, so they
agree to split the gold the next morning.
But the pirates are all very greedy. During the night one of the pirates
decides to take some of the gold pieces for himself. He sneaks to the trunk
and divides the gold pieces into five equal piles, with one gold piece left
over. He puts the gold piece in his pile, hides it, puts the other four
piles back in the trunk, and sneaks back to bed.
One by one, the remaining pirates do the same. They sneak to the trunk,
divide the coins into five piles, with always one coin left over. Each
pirate puts the gold coin in his own pile, hides it, and puts the remaining
four piles back in the trunk.

Please show work?

I'm not sure. I'd really like to find out. It was growing in the garden in my front yard (in West Virginia) over the summer. It had a dark purple, spikey bulb thing on top with leaves around the bottom of the bulb. I can't really remember if they were poking outward or wrapping around it..
It was a really sturdy flower with a thick stem. It smelled nice too. Personally, I thought it smelled like grapes. Idk how relevent that would be though.

Thanks for any help.<3

I am doing a project on how the moon affects the Earth. I know tides is one, but is there anything else? (it doesn't have to be major, as long as it's somewhat significant). Any info will be appreciated. Thanks!

I'm not sure about this question, i hope you can help....

Q. (a) A researcher measured the concentrations of oxygen in the air around some cells placed in strong sunlight. He found that as time passed the oxygen concentration continued to increase. Explain this observation.

Q. (b) The researcher then changed the light intensity until it was observed that the concentrations of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the surrounding air remained constant.

(i) Explain this observation
(ii) Was the light intensity increased or reduced by comparison with the conditions in Part (a) of this question?

thanks heaps!! :-) I appreciate you takin' the time.

You have two spinners in front of you. Spinner “A” contains two spaces each of the numbers one, two, and three. Spinner “B” contains six spaces with one deuce each. You have spun both spinners 12 times each. Which one is more likely to give you a sum of 24 under these circumstances?
