Answer:

The measurement of the circumference of a child's head is known as the head circumference.

Explanation:

It is defined as the measurement of the perimeter of the head in its largest part. This measurement goes from the part on the eyebrows and the ears, around the back of the head.

This information is common in routine checkups of a healthy child. If during this control a change in the normal growth of the head is observed, this may indicate a possible problem, for example water in the brain, which is known as hydrocephalus. If, on the contrary, the growth of the child's head is too slow, this is known as microcephaly.

Cannabis (marijuana) during pregnancy is dangerous for the fetus

During pregnancy, the active component of cannabis, which is THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), can go into the placenta and affect the fetus, including its birth weight (like the case in the question here) and brain function, reducing the baby's IQ and attention capacity.


Depending on the type of drug and the quantity consumed, it is also possible that the baby suffers from weaning at birth, that is to say from deprivation (inconsolable crying, irritability, tremors, feeding difficulties, etc.). .


Cannabis may also have longer-term effects in children (learning disabilities, behavioral problems, hyperactivity, etc.).

Answer:

D) When corals are babies floating in the plankton, fish swim with them and protect them from harm.

Explanation:

This is the statement that does not explain how fish and coral relate to one another. It is false that when corals are babies, fish swim with them and protect them. However, the rest of the statements are true. It is true that fish eat predators, and that they also eat seaweed and kelp that could smother the coral. Finally, it is also true that some fish live symbiotically with coral, luring prey for the coral to kill and eat.
