Dr. Snow believed sewage dumped into the river or into cesspools near town wells could contaminate the water supply, leading to a rapid spread of disease. In August of 1854 Soho, a suburb of London, was hit hard by a terrible outbreak of cholera.

The pandemic was the work of a 'super-virus' The 1918 flu spread rapidly, killing 25 million people in just the first six months. ... It's now thought that many of the deaths were due to the development of bacterial pneumonias in lungs weakened by influenza.

The WHO recommends strategies on how to prevent malaria transmission by controlling the mosquito population and on how to diagnose and treat malaria infections. There are two main prevention methods: Protective bed nets treated with long-lasting insecticides prevent bites from malaria-infected mosquitoes and kill them.

Edward Jenner. In 1775 Jenner began to study the relationship between cowpox (a comparatively harmless disease) and the more dangerous and disfiguring smallpox. ... He hypothesized that exposure to cowpox rendered the body immune from smallpox. After nearly twenty years of experiments, he developed the first vaccine.

I don't know how effective the shot was sorry

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:The timing of the cricket's depends on the temperature of the box

so the answer should be

timing of the cricket's chirps

Explanation:Hi!

There are a few types of variables in these types of experiments. They are independent, dependent, and controlled.

The independent is the one changed by the scientist, or in this case, the temperature. The controlled is the things that remain constant through every case, and the dependent is what is being observed, seeing if it changes through the altercation of the independent variable.

In this case, what is being observed is the timing of a cricket's chirps, because it is being watched whether or not temperature affects it.

Therefore, your answer is the third choice, or the timing of the cricket's chirps.

Hope this helped!

To check whether Earnest and Denise could have a baby with Type O blood, draw a Punnett square for a father who has blood Type A
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Answer is explained below and also see the document attached below for Punnett square.

Explanation:

ABO blood type (A, B, AB, or O) is based on the presence (or absence) of the A and B antigens in the red blood cells. The blood type, A has only the A antigen (and has anti-B antibodies) while the blood type, B has only the B antigen (and had anti-A antibodies). Also in the AB  blood type, both A and B antigens are present (but has no antibodies) while in the O blood type, both A and B antigens are absent (but has both antibodies).

The blood type is inherited from the parents and the offspring inherits one of the two alleles from each parent. The ABO blood type has three types of alleles: IA, IB, and i. Here, I is a term for antigen (isoagglutinogen).

The IA and IB alleles are dominant while the i allele is recessive. The blood type A is formed by either two IA alleles (IA IA ) or IA i. So, the genotype of blood type A is IA IA  or IA i. The blood type B is formed by either two IB alleles (IB IB ) or IB i. So, the genotype of blood type B is IB IB or IB i. The O blood type is formed only by two i alleles (ii). So, the genotype of blood type O is ii. The IA and IB alleles (IA IB) give the AB blood type, which is an example of codominance (the traits of both the alleles are visible in the phenotype). The genotype of blood type AB is IA IB.  

If the parents have blood type A and B, then they can have an AB blood type offspring. If the parents have blood type A and B and they both are heterozygous (IB i and IA i), then they can also have a O blood type child.

Here, the father has blood Type A (IA i genotype) while the mother has blood Type B (IB i genotype). Both the parents are heterozygous (IB i and IAi), so the possible genotypes of their child are IA IB (blood type AB), IA i (blood type A), IB i (blood type B) and ii (blood type O).

i.e.,            <u> Blood Type </u>                             <u>Genotype </u>

                           A                                     IA IA or IA i

                           B                                     IB IB or IB i

                          AB                                        IA IB

                           O                                            ii
