Interpretation:

The type of the blood vessel that carries blood rich in the oxygen needs to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Blood vessels are of three different types and they are unique in their functions and structure. These three include the arteries, veins and capillaries.

Can you please help me with this question? As a dialysis patient, Michelle has a 4-h dialysis treatment three times a week. When she arrives at the dialysis clinic, her weight, temperature, and blood pressure are taken, and blood tests are done to determine the level of electrolytes and urea in her blood. In the dialysis center, tubes to the dialyzer are connected to the catheter she has had implanted. Blood is then pumped out of her body, through the dialyzer, where it is filtered and returned to her body. As Michelle's blood flows through the dialyzer, electrolytes from the dialysate move into her blood, and and waste products in her blood move into the dialysate, which is continually renewed. To achieve normal serum electrolyte levels, dialysate fluid contains sodium, chloride, and magnesium levels that are equal to serum concentrations. The table below shows  Michelle's blood tests prior to dialysis showing  the electrolyte levels in her blood are, and A dialysate solution that is…
