The correct answer is False. The correct word is Epidemic and not resistance.
An abrupt decrease in a host immunity of a pathogen or newly emerging novel pathogen that is found in the endemic equilibrium with the exceeded transmission threshold is where an epidemic occurs.

Which part of the cell theory do these results most support:

Vlad1618 [11]

<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Answer:</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2>

$\huge\textbf{Cell Theory}$

the Cell Theory was give by German scientists, Schleiden and T.Shwan in 1839. It stated that,

All organism are composed of one or more cells

The cell is the structural and functional unit of life
It is a de novo structure, that means it COULD arise from non living thing which was incorrect.

It was corrected by the German pathologist Rudolf Virchow in 1855. He made a convincing case, corrected and added the third point of the cell theory. It is,

Cells can arise only by a division of pre-existing cell. It is <u>NOT</u> a de novo structure.

Cell theory brought a great evolution in the field of biology which established the function of organism is the result of activities and interaction of the cell units.

$\huge\textbf{Question:}$

<u>Flask 1</u>: It is observed that there are no micro-organism, this is because the meat is sealed and no micro-organism could enter through it.
<u>Flask 2</u>: It is observed that there are micro-organism present because meat is not sealed but open.
<u>Flask 3</u>: As the S tube is used, the micro-organism are not able to reach the meat because of the curvy path

These observations support the point that<u> cells could arise only by a division of pre-existing alive cells</u> because in Flask 1 when there were no micro-organism present so there was no organisms found so no micro-organism arised, In flask 3 the S tube was used so no micro-organism could reach the meat thus there were no organism there which could divide to reproduce. The flask 2 was open, so the micro organisms reached the meat so they divided which means Cells can only arise by a division of pre-existing cells.

Which of these diseases results in meningitis caused by an encapsulated yeast?

amid [387]

Answer:

cryptococcosis

Explanation:

Cryptococcosis

It is an air-borne disease. It is caused after inhalation of soil which is contaminated by encapsulated yeast, Cryptococcus neoformans or C. gattii. The soil is infested with yeast which are contained in the waste of the birds. This disease affects the lungs since it is caused by inhaling the Cryptococcus. Cryptococcus can spread to skin and other organs, also involving the brain and meninges alongwith bones and joints.

Symptoms

Meningitis is common and can be discovered by symptoms like headache, vision problems and changes in behavior.

Lesions and ulcers on the skin which are similar to acne, are another sign of this disease.

Coccidioidomycosis

Another air-borne disease caused by inhaling dust containing spores. It is caused by Coccidioides fungus.

This disease, if ignored, can lead to severe damage to the respiratory organs, bones and/ or heart.

Visible symptoms include tiredness, fever, rashes and pain.

People with weaker immune system are easy victims of severity of this disease.

Candidiasis

This is caused by the yeast, Candida albicans. The skin and mucous membranes are the commonly affected areas. Candidiasis of the mouth results in thrush, which is usually found in infants. Vagina is another common area which is affected by this disease.

Histoplasmosis

This is the result of inhaling fungal spores which are carried by air. The lungs are the first organs to be affected. Initial symptoms include fever, cough, pain and bumps. More serious complications are indicated by blood in the cough, shortness of breath and heavy sweating.

Prevention

All the diseases discussed above are air borne diseases. The respiratory system is affected the most followed by the brain, since the microbe are easily spread through the body.

The most important prevention is the diet which helps boost the immune system. Another important prevention is cleanliness which is to be maintained until medical help becomes available.
