The distinction between the terms renminbi and yuan is similar to that between sterling and pound, which respectively refer to the British currency and its primary unit. One yuan is subdivided into 10 jiao (Chinese: è§; pinyin: jiÇo), and a jiao in turn is subdivided into 10 fen (Chinese: å; pinyin: fÄn).
Fleas are attracted to the warmth that the bodies of their hosts emit, vibrations and carbon dioxide, and they also like warm and carpeted environments where their hosts rest. These parasites feed on the blood of their hosts and can cause a number of conditions including skin infection and irritation, loss of hair and lethargy in their hosts.
Cat and dog fleas are commonly blamed for âsand fleaâ bites from small biting flies found in coastal areas. There are many creatures called âsand fleasâ by people at the beach. However, true sand fleas are present in sandy areas such as beaches and marshes and are crustaceans, not insects and are not harmful.
