Stimulant, has a paradoxical effect in children, producing calmness in children with hyperactive behavior. The exact mechanism of action is not clearly understood.  Stimulant medications used to treat ADHD can suppress appetite, and the child may lose or fail to gain weight properly. The client is too young to manage his medications independently. Ritalin should be given in divided doses.

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

<u>A.  Building dams, deforestation cutting down trees), adding point sources to nearby streams to allow for run-off, building roads and structures, and salting roads.</u>

Explanation:

Removing non-native species from the environment helps the native ants to thrive without having any changes in the ecosystem effect them (i.e. new invasive animal).

Creating laws to prohibit fishing from local streams helps keep the fish alive and allowing them to continue to use this stream.

Planting trees and other plants to attract native species helps secure and grow the ecosystem of that area.
