The Systolic and Diastolic are separate numbers because the Systolic is supposed to be higher than the Diastolic. A perfect blood pressure is 120/80. Please mark as brainliest if correct:)

The top number of your blood pressure reading tells you the force of the blood against artery walls when your heart beats. It is called systolic pressure. The bottom number tells you what your blood pressure is when your heart is at rest between heartbeats. It is called diastolic pressure.

The __________ separates the common portion of the procedure description from the unique portion of the procedure description.
slega [8]

The correct answer for this question is Semi-Colon.

Semicolons (;) are a punctuation mark that serve two major purposes: They divide items in a long list. The Council, for instance, has 10 members, including three from Sydney, Australia, four from Auckland, New Zealand, two from Suva, Fiji, and one from Honiara, the Solomon Islands.

To join similar independent clauses, use a semicolon. A sentence that conveys a complete idea and makes sense on its own is referred to as an independent clause.

With a conjunctive adverb or transitional phrase, use a semicolon.

To separate items in a list, use semicolons.

How do schema, assimilation, and accommodation work together to help kids understand their world?
gulaghasi [49]

Schema, assimilation and accommodation

Explanation

Schema, assimilation and accommodation are three important concepts in Piaget’s cognitive development which the kids adapt to learn and understand their world.

Schema is the mental or cognitive idea, concept or framework which organizes and interprets information. Schema is built continuously during cognitive development of children through the interweaving of the adaptation processes of assimilation and accommodation.  

Assimilation helps a kid to take new information and add it to the existing schema or old information about the same concept. For ex., identifying a four-legged animal as a cow by a kid is assimilation of a new information.

Accommodation helps a kid to analyze and modify the new or old schema or information based on what is learnt or experienced. For ex., Identifying that all four-legged animals are not cow and they can be a horse or bullock also depending upon the difference in their structure is the accommodation made by the kid on top of existing schema of four-legged animals.
