The correct answer would be:

"I'll place the crutches about 6 inches to each side."

This is called tripod position. In order to achieve a correct position, one must in a certain body position. Crutches should be six inches apart from both sides. Crutches should be between one and two inches below one’s armpits, while a person is standing straight, while handgrips should be in line with one’s hips.

What is the main difference between the conducting portion of the respiratory system and the respiratory portion of the respirat
Gnoma [55]
In the respiratory system, the main difference between the conducting portion of the respiratory system is its parts and function. The former contains air-transmitting passages (with respiratory system acting as a filter) as well as special portions functioning for smell, phonation and alimentation. The latter however, is a location where actual gas exchange occurs which of course contains different parts than the conduction portion.

Answer:

False!

Explanation:

Personal hygine is going to affect your health in some shape or form, but not 100% of the time. Genetics, where you live, and age also play a HUGE roll in whether or not you're going to fall ill (and that is just a small list).

Hope it helps!
