B) Down syndrome

C) fragile-X syndrome

1. Igloos are buildings that are made of packed
Margaret [11]

The particles of the snow have kinetic energy, but being a solid, it has less kinetic energy than that of liquid water. So they move around in a place about its mean position.

Option C

<h3><u>Explanation:</u><u> </u></h3>

Igloos are the small homes made up of snow. It used to be homes for the people living in Arctic regions in past. Now some tribes still live in these igloos, or they are made by tourists for amusements.

Snow is basically precipitation of ice from clouds. Being the solid form of water, ice has molecules more compactly arranged in its crystal structure. Thus, the molecules cannot move here and there like in fluid. But having some kinetic energy, they have certain movements i.e vibrations around its mean position.

50 points and brainleist how can i gain weight if i was born 4 days early than due date DON'T GOOGLE
ivann1987 [24]
Being born a few days before your due date shouldn’t cause a big difference in your health. To gain weight you should try to eat thing high in protein, healthy fats, and some carbs. Most people try to gain weight by eating foods with a lot of saturated fat (is potato chips) but try to maintain a diet with a good calorie intake.

However I am not a professional and if you are worried about your weight, go to a nutritional to see what meal plan they will give you

This is what I try to eat, I am 100 pounds, 5.2, female.
Eggs (taste terrible in my opinion but are extremely nutritious) for breakfast
Salad with chicken for one meal
Meat dish with rice, or vegetables, sometimes spaghetti
