Tetanus requires hospitalization, treatment with human tetanus immune globulin (TIG), a tetanus toxoid booster, agents to control muscle spasm, aggressive wound care, and antibiotics. Metronidazole is the most appropriate antibiotic. The wound should be debrided widely and excised if possible.
Chemistry is also a physical science, and could be seen as a bridge between physical and life sciences. Chemical reactions happen in lifeforms like humans constantly, as studied in biochemistry, so understanding chemistry naturally leads to a better understanding of living organisms.
Physical science, which includes chemistry and physics, is usually thought of as the study of the nature and properties of matter and energy in non-living systems. Matter is the âstuffâ of the universe â the atoms, molecules and ions that make up all physical substances. Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. Energy is the capacity to cause change.
