ANSWER: (A) All species of Plasmodium can cause relapses.

EXPLANATION: All species of Plasmodium can cause relapses is FALSE.

Based on series of research on malarial parasites, only two species of Plasmodium can cause relapses (P. vivax and P. ovale.).

These species of plasmodium are known for causing relapses i.e the reappearance of parasitemia after treatment of affected individuals.

However, it is assumed that the subset of the parasites that caused the primary infection caused the relapses.

Furthermore, individuals who are cured of their blood stage may have a subsequent infection without reinfection (relapses). This is caused by the presence of the latent (exo-erythrocytic) stage, which exhibit dormancy in the body.

Answer:

Select the one statement that is false: a) All species of Plasmodium can cause relapses

This statement "All species of plasmodium can cause relapses" is false, because only two species of Plasmodium can cause relapses. These two are <em>Plasmodium vivax</em> and <em>Plasmodium ovale</em>. These species can cause malaria, people can develop symptoms even years after the initial infection due to activation of a dormant hypnozoite in the liver.

1.¿El ciclo del agua tiene un inicio específico?
raketka [301]

Answer:

1)El ciclo del agua no se inicia en un lugar específico, pero para esta explicación asumimos que comienza en los océanos. ... Corrientes ascendentes de aire llevan el vapor a las capas superiores de la atmósfera, donde la menor temperatura causa que el vapor de agua se condense y forme las nubes.

2)El sol, que dirige el ciclo del agua, calienta el agua de los océanos, la cual se evapora hacia el aire como vapor de agua. Corrientes ascendentes de aire llevan el vapor a las capas superiores de la atmósfera, donde la menor temperatura causa que el vapor de agua se condense y forme las nubes.

Do bananas contain radiation?
Ne4ueva [31]
<span>You are right in that bananas contain potassium and K-40 is a naturally occurring potassium isotope AND the K-40 in an average banana does decay at a rate of about 31 ATOMS per second (half-life is > 1 billion years). This is an extremely low level of radiation and nothing to worry about. Bananas will definitely NOT cause a "nuclear winter."</span>
