An effective maneuver for dislodging a foreign object in someone that is choking is called?.

Choice A rationale:

Increased blood viscosity is not typically associated with atherosclerosis. While high blood viscosity can contribute to cardiovascular problems, it is not a condition that you would expect to accompany atherosclerosis.

Choice B rationale:

Irregular heartbeat, or arrhythmia, is not typically a condition that accompanies atherosclerosis. While atherosclerosis can increase the risk of certain types of arrhythmias, it is not a direct result of the disease.

Choice C rationale:

High blood pressure, or hypertension, is often associated with atherosclerosis. The buildup of plaque in the arteries causes them to narrow and stiffen, which increases the resistance to blood flow and consequently increases blood pressure.

Choice D rationale:

Low blood pressure is not typically associated with atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis tends to increase blood pressure rather than decrease it.

Choice B rationale:

The bronchioles are part of the airway that leads to the alveoli, but gas exchange does not occur here.

Choice C rationale:

The bronchus is a larger airway that leads to the bronchioles and then to the alveoli, but gas exchange does not occur here.

Choice D rationale:

While the lungs contain the alveoli where gas exchange occurs, saying that gas exchange occurs in the lungs is not as precise as saying it occurs in the alveoli.
