<h3>Anthrax is an uncommon, but deadly, disease produced by Bacillus anthracis, a spore-forming bacterium.</h3>
<u>Explanation</u>
- Anthrax bacteria usually enter the body through a skin wound. You can have become infected if you intake tainted meat or inhale the spores.
- ID50, the number of microorganisms needed to create a demonstrable infection by 50 percent.
- The ID50 for cutaneous anthrax attributable to Bacillus anthracis is 10-50 endospores, while the ID50 for inhalation anthrax is 10,000 to 20,000 endospores.
- Ciprofloxacin is the alternative treatment for anthrax when mutated forms are identified. It is suggested for post- inhalation anthrax.
Based on DNA sequences, it is believed that changes in nucleotide sequence between two species are equivalent to the time that has elapsed since the two species diverged from their common ancestor. Gene sequencing is being used in addition to morphology to determine evolutionary relationships between organism. Homologous sequences show greater evolutionary relationship
Answer:
Complete Tetanus
Explanation:
The nerve stimulus arrives at the fiber at such a rapid pace that there is no decrease in tension between stimuli detected. This results in a tectanic contraction that is fused (complete) . Thus the muscle fiber does not relax at all due to this complete tetanus.
<span>None of the above. All of the following affect
metabolism at some point in an individual's life. As a person ages, metabolic
rate generally slows down because of muscle tissue loss, and some hormonal and
neurological changes. Gender also affects metabolism because men are generally
larger in size than women that is why they tend to have faster metabolisms than
women. Genes or inherited traits from parents also affect metabolism, the rate
at which the body goes is dependent on inherited traits from parents, also the
diseases that come with abnormal genes can affect metabolism. Temperature can also
affect metabolism because the body adjusts to maintain its normal temperature
which can either increase or decrease metabolic rate.</span>
