The last step is to find ways to monitor diet and physical activity. It is important to keep track of any lifestyle changes. Revisit both the short- and long-term goals to staying healthy. Figure out ways to make sure those goals are being met. Monitoring diet and exercise will help a person overcome personal barriers that may try to steer them off course.
It is also important to rely on a network of trusted adults and peers for support. Body Mass Index (BMI) and stepping on the scale are just a few ways to monitor weight gain and body composition. Use these monitoring tools, and many more, to evaluate the success of maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
– “<em>the connection between body image and managing weight</em>”
Which details support the central idea of the passage? Check all that apply.
A) Exercise each day.
B) Revisit both short- and long-term goals.
C) Monitor diet and exercise.
D) Create goals with adults and peers.
E) Limit foods that increase BMI.
Answer:
The details which support the central idea are:
B, and C.
Explanation
The passage didn't asserted that exercise must be done everyday neither did it suggest that Body Mass Index can be increased. In any case, BMI can never be increased. That ideas is very hilarious as Body Mass Index is a model or a calculation which helps to indicate whether or not someone is obese or not.
The passage with regard to relating with adults and peers stated that they be connected with for support. It was not stated that one should create goals with them.

Answer:
Fracture healing is a biological process in continuum from fracture to healed stage. It involves a sequence of dynamic events which ultimately restores the integrity of the bone and its biomechanical properties.1 Bone is the only biological tissue which heals by making bone and the rest of the tissues heal by making a different tissue. The process of healing starts immediately after injury and continues thereafter. The events take place at the cellular level and the summation of these changes are seen as healing. The fracture healing is influenced by physical, chemical and environmental factors.2
Based on the symptoms,
Differential diagnoses for the boy includes:
- Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (RMSF) owing to his recent visit to Florida
- Meningitis
Course of treatment:
- The patient needs to be admitted
- Diagnostic tests including CBC, cultures of both blood and CSF to rule out meningitis should be done
Explanation:
Initial line of treatment with loading dose of doxycycline at 2.2 mg/kg and ceftriaxone at 100 mg/kg/day can be started.
RMSF is a contagious disease caused by ticks and is predominant in the southeastern regions of the United States like North Carolina. So the boy could have got the disease from his visit to N. Carolina. Doxycycline is a broad spectrum antibiotic is the most preferred treatment of choice for RMSF
Meningitis is a bacterial disease affecting the brain. Ceftriaxone is the treatment of choice for empirical treatment of meningitis.
Since the boy’s symptoms like fever, headache, petechial rashes etc are symptomatic of both RMSF and meningitis, both the antibiotics should be administered initially.
Then depending upon the culture results, other specific antibiotics and treatments can be started.
