The public health team informs the community that acanthamoeba may be transmitted in trophozoite and encystment stage(s) of its life cycle.

<h3>Acanthamoeba:</h3>

Amoeba belonging to the genus Acanthamoeba are frequently found in soil, freshwater, and other habitats. The metabolically active trophozoite and a dormant, stress-resistant cyst are the two evolutionary forms of Acanthamoeba. Trophozoites are amoeboid-shaped and tiny, often measuring 15 to 25 m in length. Although Acanthamoeba species are naturally free-living bacterivores, in some circumstances they can infect people and other animals, leading to an infection known as acanthamebiasis.

One of the most common protozoa to be discovered in the environment is Acanthamoeba spp. They are found all over the world and have been removed from contact lens cases, dental treatment facilities, hospitals, sewage treatment plants, chlorinated swimming pools, residential tap water, bottled water, and the ocean.

In the last century, the extent of global rain forests has been reduced by _____. one-half
Elodia [21]

The correct answer is - one-half.

In the past century, the deforestation of the rainforests in the world had been devastating, and it is estimated that approximately one half of the tropical rainforests have been destroyed.

The reason for the large scale destruction of the rainforests is mainly because of clearing space for agriculture and for spaces where the cattle can graze. Unfortunately, the people that live the regions where the tropical forests are, are not well educated as to how to manage the land, and a big problem is that the soil of the rainforests is only good for 2-3 seasons, because it spends and erodes very quickly. Because of that, people just continue to clear more and more of it, thus leaving destroyed forest and destroyed soil behind them, without taking in consideration the long term effects.

Does a carbon monoxide detector go off continuously
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer: CO alarms have a life expectancy of around seven years. The CO alarm will beep every 30 seconds or display ERR or END. If a CO alarm is at its end-of-life, replacing the battery will not stop the beep. Most detectors will beep 4 or 5 times in a row about every 4 seconds. Do not mistake dangerous levels of poisonous gas for a detector with low battery.

Identify the eukaryotic cellular locations of the fundamental processes that are involved in the central dogma of molecular biol
Papessa [141]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The central dogma gives a description of how genetic information travels in biological cells from DNAs to proteins. DNAs are first transcribed into messenger RNAs in a process known as transcription and the resulting mRNAs are used in the synthesis of proteins in a process known as translation.

In eukaryotic cells, transcription process happens within the confines of the nucleus because the genetic material in the form of DNAs are always located in the nucleus. Thereafter, the mRNAs generated from transcription are transported to the cytoplasm of the cell where they become translated into proteins.

Hence;

  • <em>T</em><em>ranscription</em><em> happens in the </em><em>nucleus</em><em> of the cell.</em>
  • <em>Translation </em><em>happens in the </em><em>cytoplasm</em><em> of the cell.</em>

The region of the transcript from the 5’ cap to the nucleode just upstream of the start codon is called the 5’ untranslated regi
nignag [31]

In prokaryotes the 5' UTR is 3-10 nucleotides.

In Eukaryotes the 5'UTR is 100 to many thousand nucleotides long.

Explanation:

Leader sequence or 5' UTR starts at transcription site and ends at the initiation codon just one nucleotide away from it.

It is present in mRNA.

These are GC rich and form secondary structure, helps in protein synthesis.

Shine Dalgarno sequence in prokaryotes is an example of 5'UTR.

It acts as an entry point of ribosome.
