The correct answer is C) :A person wants an endless supply of everything but cannot have it.

Even though scarcity and shortage may appear rather similar they are different.

By definition scarcity is inevitable which means that the quantity of a resource is limited naturally. On the other hand, shortage is not imposed by nature it is a situation created by men. It occurs when there is more demand than supply.

In this case, if the person cannot have the resource he or she wants for ever this means that the natural resource will inevitably stop existing at some point. This is an example of scarcity.

Fever in infants and young children is not an uncommon event. Many trips to the pediatrician’s office occur because of fever in
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Every symptom is not a fever symptom in infants.

Explanation:

Fever occurs when the internal "thermostat" of the body increases the temperature of the body above its normal range.

A child's normal temperature varies with his or her age, activity, and even time of day.

Infants usually have greater levels of temperatures than children of more than 1-2 years. They may have higher temperature during late afternoon and early evening. Temperatures might be low between midnight and early hours of the  morning. Checking temperature with palm on the forehead should not be the way to decide if the child has fever. Always use a thermometer to check body's temperature and conclude whether it is fever or not.

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

a) nonverbal communication usually conveys more information than verbal communication
