Answer:
neurocysticercosis
Explanation:
Cysticercosis is the infection caused by the cystic form of the pig's tapeworm, Taenia solium, and neurocysticercosis is when the central nervous system (CNS) is affected. It is usually possible through direct ingestion of helminth eggs, but it can also occur in a usual infestation (teniasis). It is an endemic condition in several countries in South America, Africa and Asia, accounting for about 29% of the causes of secondary epilepsy in these locations. It can also cause headache, hydrocephalus, meningitis, and even central nervous system infarction.
Answer:
α = 0 if β= 0
Explanation:
If both species want to persist in the same environment and their niches are also over lapping then both of the co-efficient values should be equal. There are two possibilities on these values for persistence. One is that one should compromise to the change produced by the invasive specie and two is that the new specie should compromise if he wants to stay (<em><u>Assuming that there is no competition</u></em>). In this way their niches won't overlap to a greater extent and therefore better chances of survival for both.
Answer:
Thyroid hormones
Explanation:
Animals and people exposed to pesticides such as insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides, have shown to be affected by their effect on the thyroid. These chemicals can produce endocrine alterations acting as thyroid disrupters. They affect many mechanisms in the organisms such as inhibition of thyroid iodine uptake, <u><em>interference with the thyroid hormone receptor</em></u>, binding to transport proteins, among others. They cause toxicity in the functioning of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis.
There are many studies that associate thyroid diseases with exposure to organochloride pesticides. Significant alteration in the TSH, T3, and T4 levels have been expressed by people directly or indirectly exposed to the chemicals.
Answer:
The correct answer is keystone predator.
Explanation:
In sustaining the composition of an ecological community, a keystone species plays an essential function. In the absence of keystone species, the ecosystem would fail to exist and would become drastically different. A predator is a classic illustration of a predator, which inhibits a specific herbivorous species from eradicating the dominant species of plants. In the non-existence of predators, the herbivorous prey would increase enormously and would clean the entire essential plant species, and thus, drastically change the significance of the ecosystem.
