mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Every symptom is not a fever symptom in infants.

Explanation:

Fever occurs when the internal "thermostat" of the body increases the temperature of the body above its normal range.

A child's normal temperature varies with his or her age, activity, and even time of day.

Infants usually have greater levels of temperatures than children of more than 1-2 years. They may have higher temperature during late afternoon and early evening. Temperatures might be low between midnight and early hours of the  morning. Checking temperature with palm on the forehead should not be the way to decide if the child has fever. Always use a thermometer to check body's temperature and conclude whether it is fever or not.

lukranit [14]

The South became devoted largely to agriculture, and especially to plantation-style farming. The lack of urban centers was not specifically the cause of a slave economy developing in the South. But it is the case that the plantation economy led to less development of some other professions and institutions that tend to be associated with industries and cities.


The weak position of banking and financial institutions in the South was further weakened by the Civil War. Banking was devastated in the South by the time the war was done. Confederate currency had become essentially worthless.  Their whole system of finances needed to be reconstructed during the Reconstruction era.
