<span>A diseases may be classified as either communicable or non-communicable. Communicable diseases are caused by pathogens who inhabit a host, man (I'm not saying man is the only host or man is necessarily the final host; there could be many host) who in turn passes the disease to another. Pathogens are viral, bacterial, parasitic and fungal. There are several stages before the pathogen metamorphoses into a full-blown disease. The stages in which several events happen builds up before the pathogen affects the final host is called a communicable disease chain. There are six stages ( Pathogen, reservoir, portal of ext, mode of transmission, portal of entry and susceptible host) in the communicable disease chain but the step a nurse shouod take is 1. Destroy the second link (Reservoir) by thoroughly sanitizing the environment. Obviously, this is where the Pathogens live. If the reservoir is taken care of; there's no way they could infect the host.</span>

cluponka [151]

Answer:

Of the 23 pairs of chromosomes in any normal human cell, the first 22 pairs provide directions for an individual's body and brain development. Scientists now estimate that about half of a person's personality traits and cognitive abilities can be traced to genetic influence and that psychological disorders arise from the interactions of many genes.

Explanation:

Chromosomes are small molecules that have the ability to carry all the genetic information needed to form a living being. These chromosomes are donated by an individual's parents and are used to form 23 pairs that determine all the internal and external characteristics of an organism. Among these 23 pairs, one pair will be responsible for determining the individual's gender, and the other 22 pairs will be responsible for the instructions that will make up the entire body and brain of the individual. Many scientists believe that chromosomes are responsible for even a part of a person's personality traits and that the genes they carry are directly related to the existence of psychological disorders.
