Answer:

5 milliliters

Explanation:

Weight of the child = 20 kg

Prescription order = 20 mg/kg 2 hours before appointment

The total amount of erythromycin required by the child= weight of the child x prescription order.

                       = 20 x 20 = 400 mg

Amount of erythromycin per 5 ml of the bottle = 400 mg

<em>Hence, the total milliliters of the liquid that the child should receive </em>= 5 ml

Most of hominins were probably nearly as efficient at bipedal locomotion as humans.  However, the bones of their pelvis were shorter from top to bottom than humans. This made their pelvis more stable for weight which supports standing upright or moving bipedially.
