Answer:

3- Breast-feeding can reduce an infant’s risk of infection, allergies, and certain chronic diseases.

.4- All mothers should consume 500 kcal extra daily while breast-feeding until weaning of the infant.

5- Women with AIDS or active tuberculosis should feed formula rather than breast-feed.

Explanation:

Breastfeeding is also a great benefit to the environment and society, that is, it does not require the use of energy for manufacturing or create waste or air pollution. Also, there is no risk of contamination and it is always at the right temperature and ready to feed. Given the importance of breastfeeding for the health of mothers and babies, Centers for Disease Control and prevention supports breastfeeding through hospital initiatives, work-site accommodation, continuity of care and community support initiatives. Colostrum is the earliest breast-milk produced, beginning in mid-pregnancy (12-18 weeks) and is continually produced for the first few days after baby's birth, it provides all the nutrients and fluid that your newborn needs in the early days, as well as many substances to protect your baby against infections.  Mothers with untreated and active tuberculosis infections are not advised to breastfeed. They may breastfeed after their infection is cured or brought under control so that it does not spread to the infant.

Describe one of the three types of volcanoes we discussed today
White raven [17]

Answer: Shield, Cinder Cone, and Composite volcano.

Explanation: A shield volcano is a volcano that is formed with lava is very runny and spreads to a wide area and then cools to form a shield volcano. These are common at Hawaii.

A cinder cone volcano is the smallest volcano. It's made from minor eruptions and cinders. They're short and usually erupt for a short period of time. Mexico's Parícutin volcano, is a cinder cone.

Composite or stratovolcanoes are the most common type of volcano. They form from thick, less runny lava. Since it is so thick, it cools then makes the volcano taller. Mount st helens, in Washington state is a stratovolcano.

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

1. warm blooded, 2. breast feed its young

Explanation:

Whales are warm blooded, which means they keep a high body temperature that does not change in the cold water. Fish are cold-blooded, so their body temperature changes depending on the temperature of their environment. AND hales are other mammals that feed their young milk too, although it takes plenty more to feed them than human babies
