Answer:

Grade II

Explanation:

  • When there is either a partial or complete tearing on ligaments that are responsible for supporting the joint of the ankle then it causes an ankle sprain.
  • Based on the exam findings as well as the loss in functionality of the ankle, an ankle sprain can be categorized as grade I, II or III.
  • In the given situation the 14-year-old girl has a grade II ankle sprain which is characterized by an incomplete tear of the ligaments along with moderate pain (as she rates it 5/10), moderate tenderness, loss of range of some functions, and swelling.
  • All of the characteristics of the sprain resemble those of the grade II ankle sprain tear and hence, it is characterized as a grade II ankle sprain.

____ 15. which excretory organ eliminates water and some chemical wastes in perspiration?
Nastasia [14]
I think the answer is skin. Skin contains sweat glands which secrete a fluid waste called sweat or perspiration; nonetheless, its primary functions are temperature control and release of pheromone. Its role as a part of the excretory is therefore minimal. Additionally, sweating also maintains the levels of salt in the body.
