Answer:

No.

Explanation:

Hepatitis C is the most common bloodborne pathogen.

Hepatitis C as of 2022 has a infection rate of 3.7 million.

Hepatitis B as of 2022 has a infection rate of 2.2 million, or <em>1.5 million</em> lower than Hepatitis C.

Therefore, Hepatitis B is not the most common bloodborne pathogen.

Answer

Adaptation,

Explanation:

The set of characteristic an organism exhibit in order to survive in an environment is called adaptation. This may be changes in physical characteristic or adjustment in  the usual behaviour.

Generally for an organims to survive in his habitat  adaptation is important.It is usually due to interaction of the effects of environments with the genotype and phenotype  of the organism. Thus mutation which gives variation is the factor which makes  organism to  adjust to the habitat. Therefore adaptation of organism to the habitat  is dictated by the  selective pressure in the habitat.  And this is passed down to subsequent generation.

Thus Shamar sensory cells gained adaptation with time, and she was able to sit comfortably in the tub. The behavioural and physical changes she demonstrated at onset  were the necessary changes needed to adapt.

Generally it can be physiological, behavioural, physical or structural depending on the  need to adjust to the habitat.

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is - the large cross-sectional area and greater length of the cytoplasmic core get less resistance than the smaller cross-sectional area.

Explanation:

The greater length and the large cross-sectional area of the cytoplasmic path or core get less resistance than the resistance of the current path which is the small cross-sectional area of axoplasm. This leads it to greater resistance than the resistance of the current path through the extracellular fluid.

Other than this there is also an unequal distribution of the ions that leads to the increase in potential difference as higher Na+ ions present in cytoplasm and high amount of K+ ion present in axoplasm.
