The definition of high blood pressure -- anything above 140/90 -- remains the same under the new guidelines, James said. Lifestyle changes should be used to treat people who have high blood pressure readings that fall below the level where medicine is needed, he explained.
No. Mammals are divided into three infraclasses: monotremes, marsupials, and placental mammals. A giraffe is a placental mammal. This means that the baby is born live, and that it is born developed enough that it will not have to immediately crawl onto the mother's nipple and attach itself. In fact, baby giraffes can walk seconds after being born.
Their favorites are apples, bananas, and carrots. The life span for giraffes in captivity isnât increased much though. In the wild they can live from 15 to 25 years. In captivity that increases from about 32 to 40 years. The biggest change here is that the young have a better chance of living to adulthood.
