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.

type a paragraph describing how the circulatory and respiratory systems work together to deliver oxygen to the body tissue and r
ch4aika [34]
The circulatory or cardiovascular system's ability to deliver oxygen throughout the body depends on proper functioning of the respiratory system. The interactions between the cardiovascular and respiratory systems are best demonstrated by following the path of a red blood cell starting in the heart and traveling through the lungs.

A red blood cell that has just returned from delivering oxygen and that has brought back carbon dioxide would be in the right upper chamber of the heart or in the right atrium. When the atrium contracts, the cell is pumped into the right lower chamber of the heart, or the right ventricle. When that ventricle contracts, the red blood cell is pumped out of the heart through the pulmonary artery to the lungs.

In the lungs, the red blood cell enters tiny blood vessels that come into close contact with the walls of the alveoli air sacs of the lungs. The carbon dioxide in the red blood cell passes through the walls into the alveoli while the oxygen in the alveoli air passes into the red blood cell. The red blood cell then returns to the heart via the pulmonary vein.

From the pulmonary vein, the red blood cell enters the left atrium of the heart and then the left ventricle. The part of the heart muscle powering the left ventricle is very strong because it has to push the blood out to the whole body. The red blood cell is pumped out of the left ventricle via the aorta artery and eventually reaches the capillaries leading to the individual cells. There the cells absorb the oxygen from the red blood cell and pass on their waste carbon dioxide. The red blood cell returns to the right atrium of the heart via the veins to complete the cycle.

These circulatory and respiratory system interactions are ones that humans and higher animals such as mammals and birds share and that represent one of the basic functions of their bodies. Only when these two systems work and interact properly can the human or animal carry out other functions such as looking for food or reproducing.

Help me, please with this :)
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Please find the answer to the blank spaces in each statement of the attached image in CAPS.

1. All energy comes from the SUN

2. Plants, algae and some bacteria capture energy by PHOTOSYNTHESIS in their CHLOROPLAST.

3. Plants, animals, fungi, protists, and most bacteria release energy by RESPIRATION in their MITOCHONDRIA.

Note:

- Photosynthesis requires CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2) and WATER (H20) to make GLUCOSE (C6H12O6) and OXYGEN (02)

- Respiration requires GLUCOSE (C6H12O6) and OXYGEN (02) to make CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2) and WATER

Explanation:

The image in this diagram is depicting how energy flows from the ultimate source, which is the SUN to other living organisms. Plants, algae and some bacteria have the ability to capture energy from the SUN using pigments in their CHLOROPLAST in a process called PHOTOSYNTHESIS, which they use to synthesize their food. The process of photosynthesis requires CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2) and WATER (H20) to make GLUCOSE (C6H12O6) and OXYGEN (02) gas.

However, on the contrary, virtually all living organisms including: Plants, animals, fungi, protists, and most bacteria etc. release energy via an organelle called MITOCHONDRIA in a process called RESPIRATION. The process of respiration requires GLUCOSE (C6H12O6) and OXYGEN (02) to make CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2) and WATER.

Answer:

evolution of life on Earth

Explanation:

Life began on Earth at least 3.5 to 4 billion years ago, and it has been evolving ever since. At first, all living things on Earth were simple, single-celled organisms. Much later, the first multicellular organisms evolved, and after that, Earth's biodiversity greatly increased.
