decerebrate respone (extensor postureing)=brain stem hemorrhage*
deep, gasping inspiration with a pause at full inspiration followed by a brief, insufficient
release and end inspiration pause before expiration
due to lesion in the pons or upper medulla that causes the removal of input from the vagus
nerve and the pneumotaxic center

answer-protein C deficiency
protein C action - correct answer-vK dependent produced in the liver and is a powerful
anticoagulent that is activated by thrombin after binding with thrombomodulin
digests VIIIA and Va
