Ahydrangea plant has blue flowers when grown in acidic soil, but has pink flowers when grown in basic soil. a clone of the pink-flowered plant is grown in acidic soil and produces blue flowers. this change in flower color is most likely due to

If these are the missing choices: a. to determine skin temperature, place the back of your hand against the patient's skin.b. determine body temperature by touching the patient's hands and feet.c. skin temperature will tell you very little about this patient's condition or well-being.d. the patient's skin temperature and color will likely be warm and red.my answer is: a. to determine skin temperature, place the back of your hand against the patient's skin. using the back of the hand to check for temperature rather than the palm is more effective because the back of the hand has more nerves that can feel and transmit the temperature than the palm.
