Answer:

Correct.

Explanation:

Harlequin ichthyosis is an extremely rare skin disease of the group called genodermatosis (group of hereditary dermatoses with metabolic disorders), it is also usually classified in autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis (ARCI, for its acronym in English) next to ichthyosis lamellar and non-bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma. It is the most serious form of congenital ichthyosis, it has become evident since birth and owes its name to the appearance of newborns suffering from the disease, reminiscent of a harlequin costume. Harlequin-type ichthyosis is a rare genetic disease of the skin characterized by large, thick scales that appear throughout the skin, as in turn is born with the eyelids turned so that instead of eyes the eyelids are completely red. It is usually associated with characteristic facial deformities and often abnormalities in other parts of the body, especially in the chest.

It is due to an alteration of keratinization whose pathophysiological mechanism is unknown, but it is believed that there is a dysgenesis of the lamellar layer, probably due to abnormalities of the skin's lipids, which results in massive follicular hyperkeratosis.

Svetlanka [38]
<span>In circle sentencing, the entire community has the opportunity to explain the possible impacts of the crime economically, physically and emotionally.

The term "circle sentencing" stems from a circle of representatives sitting together and trying to decide a sentence which doesn't include a jail term. Circle Sentencing is one of the alternative sentencing courts for grown-up Aboriginal Offenders. The Circle involves the local Aboriginal individuals during the process of sentencing the offenders. The representatives are mainly Aboriginal Elders and members of the prosecution or police and magistrate. The circle talks about the background and effects of the offense and may involve meeting the victim. The sentence may include community work. </span>

aniked [119]

Answer:

Articles of Confederation created a weak national government with most of the governmental powers retained by the states. The Articles provided no separation of branches. There was no president or any other independent executive, nor was there a federal judicial branch. Congress, the legislature, was the only branch of government. Members elected to congress did not vote as individuals, but as states.
