Answer:

A laboratory mouse might not be an appropriate, susceptible host; an experiment with a laboratory rabbit may be needed.

Explanation:

Pathogens are disease causing organisms and in most of the cases, they are host specific,

In this case, the pathogen (microorganism X) was isolated from an infected rabbit's ear and cultured. Th most suitable host to test the pathogenicity of the microbe would have been a rabbit because that is where it was isolated initially.

<em>A mouse might not be a susceptible host, an experiment with a laboratory rabbit may be needed to affirm the pathogenicity of the isolated organism.</em>

What pet ownership trend began in the 17th century? Why was this trend so popular and has it continued today?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

Pet keeping wasn't generally accepted in Europe until the end of the 17th century, and it wasn't common among the middle classes until the late 18th century. Pet keeping in its present form is probably a 19th century Victorian invention. At this time, it was perceived as a link with the natural world, which itself was no longer seen as threatening. It also allowed a visible demonstration of man's domination over nature.

In present-day societies, dogs have a number of functional roles, from ornamental to status symbol, as helpers, and as companions. Dogs can also act as a channel for personal expression because people express their personality in the breed they own. For example, rare breeds are often used as indicators of status. Guide dogs for blind people and hearing dogs for deaf people are examples of pets who are kept as helpers.

But the most common reason for owning pets in Western societies is companionship. In recent years, there's been a growing awareness of the very positive effects this relationship can have on human health and psychological well-being, and a recognition of the therapeutic value of companion animals.

Vaccination _____.
Luden [163]

Answer:

involves injecting the body with specific medication

Explanation:

Vaccination is a versatile and effective methodology for preventing diseases caused by exposure to harmful bacterial and viral infectious agents. Literally, vaccination refers to the administration of medical preparations that help the body to produce immunity against infectious diseases. Vaccines are used to prevent outbreaks caused by infectious diseases. Even under optimal conditions, vaccination is not always effective in preventing disease transmission, because the immune system of each organism may react in a different manner to the same vaccination (even to the same dose). However, vaccination is always encouraged to prevent the spread of infectious diseases. Although there are many vaccines that target age groups, there are others that can be applied to different ages.
