The answer is diphtheria. The symptoms of diphtheria usually track an incubation period of two to five days. Symptoms primarily are general and nonspecific frequently approaching a typical viral upper respiratory infection. Respiratory taking part usually starts with the sore throat and minor pharyngeal inflammation. The progress of the confined to a small area or coalescing pseudo membrane be able to happen in any part of the respiratory tract. The pseudo membrane is regarded as by the development of a dense, gray debris layer composed of a combination of dead cells, fibrin, red blood cells, white blood cells, and some organisms.

dsp73

Answer: d. migration away from productive growing areas

Explanation:

The rice, corn and wheat are the basic food crops. These crops are used for making several dishes their flour as well as the grains of rice and corn are eaten when cooked. These three crops are necessary to be grown on large scale to meet the basic  food requirements of the large growing population worldwide. The plant roughage of these three crops can be used to make biofuels. These are used as a fodder crops to feed poultry and cattles for meat harvest.

The demand will also increase when one is migrated to an unproductive region. However, the increased demand is due to decreased supply and not because of increased consumption hence, it will not directly contribute to increase in demand of crops.

Which statement is an example of the chemical potential energy in adenosine triphosphate (ATP) being turned into work?
evablogger [386]

Answer:

The correct answer is option (C) "After splitting ATP, a protein changes shape to pump ions across a membrane".

Explanation:

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an organic chemical molecule considered the "molecular unit of currency" of intracellular energy transfer, for the high level of energy that is released when ATP is breakdown into adenosine diphosphate (ADP). ATP provides energy to drive many processes in living cells. One example of how the chemical potential energy of this molecule is turned into work is that after splitting ATP, a protein changes shape to pump ions across a membrane. The energy of the splitting of ATP into ADP will provide energy for the protein being able to change shape, resulting in pumping ions across a membrane.
