Answer:

Herpes simplex virus that could be determined by using serology or viral PCR.

Explanation:

Herpes simplex is an infection caused by the human herpes virus (HSV 1 and 2) that is characterized by the appearance of small blisters, especially clustered on the lips and genitals, but which can appear anywhere else in the body. The disease is highly contagious and can be transmitted through sex, or from mother to child during pregnancy. In pregnancy, herpes simplex may pose a concern. Inside the womb the child is protected but can become infected during normal birth. When infected, the newborn has extensive vesicular and ulcerative lesions on the face and chest.

Diagnosis in newborns can be done by viral culture, but this test is very evasive for babies, and the use of serology test or viral PCR is most recommended.

The movement is kind like Earthquakes because at divergent boundaries, lithospheric plates move apart and crust is created. At convergent boundaries, lithospheric plates move together in collision zones where crust is either destroyed by subduction or uplifted to form mountain chains.

The taiga biome is sometimes called a coniferous forest. This is because it is home to many coniferous trees such as pine, spruce, fir, and hemlock.

Taiga biomes are found between 50 and 60 degrees north latitudes. The taiga is the largest land biome on Earth, covering over 15 percent of the Earth's land. A large area of taiga is located in the northernmost forests across Europe, Asia, and North America. The taiga generally has two seasons. The summers are short, moist, and warm. The winters are long, cold, and dry. Most precipitation is in the form of snow, though rain does occur during the summer. Most animals in the tundra hibernate or migrate during the winter. Hawks, bears, foxes, wolves, deer, bats, and chipmunks can be found in the taiga.

____________ schedules produce the lowest levels of responding.
eduard
The answer is FR schedule or fixed ratio schedule. It is a timetable of fortification where a reaction is strengthened simply after a predefined number of reactions. Basically, the subject gives a set number of reactions and after that, the mentor offers a reward. One preferred standpoint of this kind of calendar is that it creates a high, enduring rate of reacting with just a concise delay after the conveyance of the reinforcer.
