Answer: The correct answer is- C.Predator-Prey.

Parasitism can be described as a type of biological interaction between two species where one organism lives on the surface or inside the body of another organism in order to complete its life cycle and get essential nutrients. This organism is called parasite and the other is called host. The host is harmed by the parasite.

This is a type of prey- predator relationship as a prey is captured by predator as a food source and therefore, predator is benefited whereas prey is harmed.

Acid rain and other forms of pollution can cause soil acidification, which decreases the number of decomposers in the soil. What
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:The question is incomplete because the options are not given. Here are the options.

a. The level of energy available in the ecosystem would increase, which would cause the population of autotrophs to increase.

b. The level of available nutrients in the soil would decrease, which would cause the population of producers to decrease

C. The population of primary consumers would increase because of increased production by autotrophs.

d. The population of primary consumers would increase because of decreased competition from decomposers.

The current answer is option B.

The level of available nutrients in the soil would decrease, which would cause the population of producers to decrease.

Explanation:

This is because when the soil is acidic it will reduce the availability of plants nutrients in the soil and it will result in accumulation of toxic chemicals which can affect the growth of plants.

If nutrients are not available for plants growth which is primary producer, it will result in poor growth, low photosynthesis and hence the production of glucose will be reduced because nutrients is essential for plants growth.

Use of which type of fertilizer improves air quality?
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Recycled Ammonia

Explanation:

Ammonia can be extracted from livestock wastewater and used as a fertilizer. There are systems available that extract the ammonia and mix it with acids to create ammonium citrate or ammonium nitrate, both of which can be used as fertilizers. The extraction system removes ammonia from the waste, which significantly reduces the amount of ammonia that is released into the air. This has the added bonus of improving the air quality where animals are kept.

NARA [144]

Answer:

3. A client receiving chemotherapy and a client with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) coughing yellow sputum.

4. A client with pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and a client with coffee ground emesis.

5.Two clients with tuberculosis.

Explanation:

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic inflammatory lung disease that causes obstructed airflow from the lungs and this disease is not contagious, the yellow sputum indicates the presence of a potentially pathogenic bacteria (infection in your lungs), but it will not be transferred through the air.  A person on chemotherapy treatment has cancer which is also not contagious so these two people may be placed in the same room.

Pelvic inflammation disease (PID) is an infection of the female reproductive organs and is occurs when sexually transmitted bacteria spread from the vagina to the uterus, fallopian tubes or ovaries.  Coffee ground emesis is a type of vomit that looks like coffee grounds meaning there is old blood in the vomit (a person is vomiting blood).  These two are not contagious so the two people can be put in a room together.

Tuberculosis (TB) is an air borne disease that infects mainly the lungs and people may get infected by inhaling the TB bacteria (Mycobacterium tuberculosis).  So when someone with untreated TB coughs or sneezes, the air is then filled with droplets containing the TB bacteria, if a person who does not have TB inhales these droplets they will be infected with the bacteria as well this is called droplet infection.  If two people with TB are in the same room together there is no risk of one affecting the other because they are both already infected by the bacteria, unlike placing someone without TB with a TB patient, that person may be at risk of inhaling the droplet and being infected.  

Heart failure is a condition in which the heart does not pump enough blood to meet the body’s demands (the heart does not pump blood the way it should) and an airborne infection isolation room is a single occupancy care space that’s designed to isolate airborne pathogens to a safe containment area, so there can only be one person in that room we cannot put the heart failure patient in there.  Patients in these rooms have serious illnesses that may pose a risk to hospital staff and these rooms are used to protect the public from the spread of these diseases.

Varicella also known as chicken pox, is a very contagious disease caused by the varicella-zoster virus, and pertussis also known as whooping cough is also a highly contagious respiratory disease caused by the bacterium Bordetella pertussis, so one cannot put two people with different highly contagious diseases in one room.
