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.

Equal masses of granite, iron, copper, and lead are placed in sunlight. Based on specific heat, which material will warm up the
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Lead

Explanation:

The material that will warm up the fastest would be<u> lead.</u>

<em>The specific heat capacity of a substance is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit of the substance by one degree. The higher the specific heat capacity of a substance, the higher the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of the substance and vice versa.</em>

The specific heat capacity (in J/g °C) of granite, iron, copper, and lead are as follows:

Granite - 0.790

Iron    - 0.450

Copper - 0.385

Lead - 0.129

From the table, <u>lead has the lowest specific heat capacity, hence, it will be the fastest to get warmed when equal masses of all the substances are placed in the sunlight.</u>

Transpiration is the evaporation process used by plants for cooling and to regulate the amount of water within its body. Factors
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Transpiration is the process of water movement in the plant in which water is released from the leaves to the environment in the form of vapours.

The transpiration is important to the plant as:

1. Cooling Effect: Transpiration help lower down the temperature of the plant by evaporating water.

2. The ascent of Sap: leads to the uptake of water in the plant.

3.  Removal of Excess Water: removes extra water from the plant.

4. Maintain turgidity: helps maintain turgidity which leads to maintains shape and structure.

5. Photosynthesis: supplies water for the photosynthesis.

The process also has disadvantages to the plants as:

1.  Wilting: the excess loss of water causes wilting of leaves during noon.

2. Reduced Yield: the wilting reduces the formation of fruits, flowers and seeds.

3. Wastage of Energy: Loss of water leads to the waste of energy which is used in the conduction of water and absorption.

The climate change has changed the ability of the plants to undergo transpiration and plants has adapted to maintain equilibrium by producing hair, thorns, thick cuticle, sunken stomata, cladodes and phylloclades.

What happens during the Krebs cycle?
Katena32 [7]
Because for each glucose molecule there are two pyruvic acid molecules entering the system, two ATP molecules are formed. Also during the Krebs cycle<span>, the two carbon atoms of acetyl-CoA are released, and each forms a carbon dioxide molecule.</span>
