Rickets is the disease in children in which an inefficient mineralization of the bone forming tissue causes deformities. This condition results in weak or soft bones in children, normally due to an extreme and prolonged deficiency of vitamin D. Vitamin D promotes the absorption of calcium and phosphorus from the gastrointestinal tract. The symptoms include bowed legs, stunted growth, bone pain, large forehead, and trouble sleeping among others.

From the list provided the eco-friendly activities are recycling materials, growing trees, burying organic matter and using fewer disposables.

Tom [10]

As enlisted in the symptoms, both fever and fatigue indicate a more serious problem. Having a painful, burning sensation when urinating indicates symptoms of a urinary tract infection (UTI). However, further tests are required to find out the true condition of the patient.

Even with any kind of infection, if the patient qualifies at least to or more of the following criteria of Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS), it is identified to be sepsis.

<span>·         </span>Temp >100.4 or <96.8

<span>·         </span>HR >90

<span>·         </span>RR >20

<span>·         </span>WBC >12,000 or <4000

<span>·         </span>Bands >10%

With the new episode of confusion, it is considered a red flag for older people. Though it may be a sign of a neurological problem, other symptoms mentioned in the scenario are mostly related to a common infection such as (UTI).

Stolb23 [73]

The outer planets are mostly formed of lighter elements because these three condense are a<u> lower temperature</u>.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The planets based on the location of the sun is divided into two, that is outer planets and inner planets.

The Outer planet which is far from the sun consists of larger quantity of lighter substances such helium, hydrogen, methane which would condense at the lower temperature. And remains gaseous inside the frost line that would exit far away for the sun so the temperature is low and the lighter materials are easier to condense in lower temperature to form terrestrial  rocks.
