Answer:

The correct option is: C) tetanus

Explanation:

Tetanus is a bacterial infection caused by Clostridium tetani, commonly found in the manure, soil, dust and saliva. This disease is characterized by muscle spasms, which begin at the jaw and travels to rest of the body and can also cause muscle fractures.

Other symptoms of this infection include headache, fever, abnormally high heart rate, difficulty in breathing, sweating, trouble swallowing and high blood pressure.

<u>Therefore, the baby is most likely suffering from tetanus.</u>

Hot and spicy are not _________ but __________________
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

alike, are similar.

Explanation:

Hot is when it is right out of the oven. The hot will eventually cool down. But, spicy is there always, and will not go away. (Unless you add something to cool it off)

So that is why the first blank is "alike", and the second is "are similar."

Hope this helped!
