The tetanus infection is considered to be a Droplet infection.

<h3>What is Tetanus?</h3>

Tetanus is a neurological disease which is characterized by the occurrence of spasms in the muscle.

Tetanus can be caused if initial care does not take place after the wound occurs and therefore, it is very important to immediately take care of the wound.

To treat the wound tetanus immunoglobulin and tetanus toxoids are given to the person, however, it is necessary to give the two injections using different syringes and at different sites, because the immunoglobulin can cause neutralization fo the toxoid.

Thus, this could be the answer.

What happens when the parasympathetic nervous system is activated
kolezko [41]

Answer:

Body functions stimulated by the parasympathetic nervous system (PSNS) include sexual arousal, salivation, lacrimation, urination, digestion, and defecation. The PSNS primarily uses acetylcholine as its neurotransmitter. Peptides (such as cholecystokinin) may also act on the PSNS as neurotransmitters. The parasympathetic nervous system is composed mainly of the cranial and sacral spinal nerves.

svetoff [14.1K]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Blood clotting</u> is a positive feedback.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

All the physiological process occurring in the body are monitored by two types of mechanism called negative feedback and positive feedback.  

Positive feedback is the reaction which occurs with the feedback from the actions the system has performed. The blood clot occurs with palette formation which is regulated with the blood lose (continuous feedback).

Negative feedback is a reaction that is the invert of the change distinguished, meaning it capacities to decrease the change. A change is recognized by a receptor and an effector is made to incite a contrary impact which facilitates further reaction.
