DDT chemical -> Zooplankton -> Small fish -> Large fish -> Eagle

Explain how super-antigens, such as toxic shock syndrome toxin produced by staphylococcus aureus, often lead to the development

GaryK [48]

Toxic shock syndrome toxin is a super-antigen produced by Staphylococcus aureus bacteria .it causes toxic shock syndrome by stimulating the release of large amount of interleukin-1, interleukin-2 and tumor necrosis factor .

Interleukin-1:

It is a group of 11 cytokines that plays a central role in the regulation of immune and inflammatory responses to infections .

Interleukin-2:

It is a type of cytokine signaling molecule in the immune system .interleukin-2 is apart of the body's natural response to microbial infection and in discriminating self and non self foreign.

tumor necrosis factor :

Tumor necrosis factor is protein superfamily of type 2 transmembrane protein containing tnf homology domain and trimers .these proteins are expressed predominantly by immune cells and they regulate diverse cell functions ,including immune response and inflammation ,but also proliferation, differentiation and embryogenesis.

Staphylococcus aureus:

Staphylococcus aureus is a gram positive pathogen cable of producing a variety of bacterial exotoxin known as super antigens .

Toxic shock syndrome :

Toxic shock syndrome is an acute disease mediated by the production of super-antigenic toxin .it is rare , life threatening complication of certain type of bacterial infections. often it results from toxins produced by staphylococcus aureus bacteria but the condition may also be caused by toxins produced by group a streptococcus bacteria.

Toxic shock syndrome can affect anyone ,including men , older woman, children and postmenopausal women.risk factors of toxic shock syndrome includes skin wounds ,surgery ,and use of tampons and devices such as menstrual cups contraceptive devices ,etc.

Symptoms of toxic shock syndrome toxin:

A sudden high fever,low blood pressure ,vomiting or diarrhea ,rash resembling sunburn ,muscle aches ,redness of eyes ,mouth and throat ,headache and seizures.

Conclusion:

If you have these symptoms of toxic shock syndrome then immediately call your doctor or consult a doctor and take precautions.

How do you think that Karl von

sergey [27]

Answer:

Karl von Frisch is best known for two major discoveries about honey bees. First, he demonstrated that honey bees have color vision, and published these findings in 191*. Second, in 193* he showed that honey bees use a dance language to communicate food locations to other bees.

Explanation:

Figure 1. Grids for the color vision test. The training color, marked with T, is blue in both cases; all other squares are shades of gray. The left box shows how the grid appears to an animal with color vision. The right box shows how the same grid may appear to an animal without color vision. The training square appears to be the same shade of gray as other squares in the grid. If the test animal cannot see in color, it will confuse the training square with other squares matching its shade of gray.

This clever test for color vision can be applied to any animal which can learn to recognize a feeding station using visual patterns.

The dance language

von Frisch observed that once one honey bee finds a feeding station, many other soon appear at the same station. This suggests that the first bee recruits other bees to the food. How might honey bees recruit help in collecting food? von Frisch¹s discovery of the dance language of the honey bee required careful determination of the correlations between movements of bees inside the hive and the locations of feeding stations. He found two types of dance. The round dance (Figure 2A) causes bees to look for food a short distance (up to about 50 meters) from the hive. The waggle dance (Figure 2B) tells bees the direction and distance to fly to find more distant food sources. Scout bees use these dances to recruit assistance in collecting food resources.
