Bryce is babysitting his neighbor. The boy has been flushed all afternoon, and Bryce thinks he might have a fever. He finds a thermometer in the bathroom cabinet and uses it to take the boy’s temperature. He is within the normal temperature range, and he doesn’t have a fever. What is MOST likely the boy’s temperature? (1 point) Responses 97.1°F 97.1°F 97.5°F 97.5°F 99.2°F 99.2°F 99.9°F
The normal body temperature range for a healthy individual is typically around 97°F to 99°F. Since Bryce found that the boy's temperature is within the normal range and he does not have a fever, the most likely temperature from the given options is 97.5°F. This is a common normal temperature and indicates the absence of fever.
u sure?
I appreciate your follow-up! To clarify, the normal body temperature can vary slightly depending on the individual and the method of measurement, but it generally falls within the range of about 97°F to 100°F.
Since Bryce's findings indicate that the boy does not have a fever, it's reasonable to conclude that his temperature would be on the lower to mid-range of normal.
In reviewing options again:
- 97.1°F and 97.5°F are both on the lower side of normal, while
- 99.2°F and 99.9°F are approaching or can be considered on the higher side for normal body temperature.
If he is within the normal range and does not have a fever, both 97.1°F and 97.5°F are acceptable, but 97.5°F is slightly more common as a typical normal temperature.
Given the context of the question and the options provided, 97.5°F would indeed be a safe and justifiable conclusion. Thank you for your patience!
While on a camping trip with some friends, Fabian is using his pocketknife to whittle a stick. His hand slips, and he cuts his arm. The wound is really bleeding, so Fabian wraps his shirt around it and holds the arm above his head. After a few minutes, the bleeding begins to slow so he carefully removes the shirt to look at the cut. It starts bleeding again. Why did Fabian’s cut MOST LIKELY start bleeding again when he removed the shirt? (1 point) Responses The cool air shocked the blood. The cool air shocked the blood. He disturbed the clot that had formed. He disturbed the clot that had formed. His heart started beating harder. His heart started beating harder. The wound got larger.
Fabian's cut most likely started bleeding again when he removed the shirt because he disturbed the clot that had formed. By removing the pressure and the material that was helping to keep the clot in place, he disrupted the healing process and allowed the bleeding to resume.
