A <u>reservoir</u> is the primary habitat in the natural world from which a pathogen comes.

<h3>Pathogen:</h3>

An organism that causes the disease is called a pathogen. Your body is already teeming with bacteria. However, these organisms only become an issue if your immune system is compromised or if they are able to get into an area of your body that is typically sterile. Different from other organisms, pathogens can spread disease once they enter the body. A host is all that a pathogen requires to grow and survive.

The pathogen enters a host's body, avoids the immune system's defenses, and uses the host's resources to replicate before leaving and infecting a new host. Depending on the type, there are various methods by that pathogens can be spread. They can be transmitted by skin-to-skin contact, biological fluids, airborne particles, feces, touching a surface, and more. The reservoir is any population of organisms (or any environment) that harbors the pathogen and transmits it to the target population.

20% of wood is damaged and thrown away and only 20 kilograms is left vv is its original weight

sesenic [268]

The original weight is 4.

Explanation:

20%= 1/5 if u don’t know the percentage then u can simply by doing..

20/100 then u divide it. U can do this by any other numbers such as 2, 4,5,10 and 20. U can do which ever way u like but i would recommend doing it either by 10 or 20.

So if we divide it by 20 we do...

20/100 divided by 20= 1/5

Or

20/100 divided by 10= 2/10

2/10 divided by 2 = 1/5

You can see the bigger the number that fits in is faster, although u can do it any way u feel like doing.

So we have got 1/5 from 20%. Now we do...

1/5 divided by 20. So when we do this, we use the bottom number to divide it and the top number to times it.

So..

1/5 u could use as 20 divided by 5..
Then 1 times the number that u get from ur before sum.

The answer is 4.

Because 1/5= 20 divided by 5 = 4
Since we have a 1 left we do..

4 times 1 which is... 4.

( u don’t need to show these parts in doing ur working, but i am doing these so they can help u understand)

So the answer is 4 and is the original weight.

I hope this is clear and helps u! :D
