A68-year old patient with alzheimer disease was brought to the emergency room by the staff of a local nursing home. he presented as lethargic with a sallow complexion. he had an admission temperature of 102.4f and a respiratory rate of 33/minute. during respiration, the right side of his chest moved better than the left. he showed dense consolidation of the lower lobe of the left lung on physical exam. a sputum sample revealed blood and a greenish color. a chest x-ray showed tight consolidation of the left lung with evidence of formation of cavities in the lung tissue from cytotoxic damage. the patient complained of chills in the exam room, combined with his fever. a smear of his sputum demonstrated no acid-fast bacteria.

requried:

diagnose this case study.

Left Lobar pneumonia

Explanation:

Since  the  smear test with acid  acid fast bacteria  is negative,then the test is tuberculosis The respiration, chills,and fever pointed to pneumonia and  the consolidation  in the left suggested;left lobar.

i do not know and i have a 100 in this class

a fossil fuel is a fuel formed by natural processes, such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms, containing energy originating in ancient photosynthesis.[1] the age of the organisms and their resulting fossil fuels is typically millions of years, and sometimes exceeds 650 million years.[2] fossil fuels contain high percentages of carbon and include petroleum, coal, and natural gas.[3] other commonly used derivatives include kerosene and propane. fossil fuels range from volatile materials with low carbon to hydrogen ratios like methane, to liquids like petroleum, to nonvolatile materials composed of almost pure carbon, like anthracite coal. methane can be found in hydrocarbon fields either alone, associated with oil, or in the form of methane clathrates.

the theory that fossil fuels formed from the fossilized remains of dead plants by exposure to heat and pressure in the earth's crust over millions of years was first introduced by andreas libavius "in his 1597 alchemia [alchymia]" and later by mikhail lomonosov "as early as 1757 and certainly by 1763".[4] the first use of the term "fossil fuel" was by the german chemist caspar neumann, in english translation in 1759.[5]

in 2017 the world's primary energy sources consisted of petroleum (34%), coal (28%), natural gas (23%), amounting to an 85% share for fossil fuels in primary energy consumption in the world.[6] non-fossil sources in 2006 included nuclear (8.5%), hydroelectric (6.3%), and others (geothermal, solar, tidal, wind, wood, waste) amounting to 0.9%.[7] world energy consumption was growing at about 2.3% per year. in 2015 about 18% of worldwide consumption was from renewable sources.[8]
