<span>A pathogen exists in the ground air and living thing but does not need them to live or reproduce. It can be a virus, protozoa, parasite, fungus, or bacterium which can cause infection to human. Some pathogens lead to the disease called malaria which is from a bacteria that released toxins in the body. However, our white blood cells can destroy these pathogens.</span>
When you have a short-term goal (less than 2 weeks), a great tool to use in helping you determine what you need to do to accomplish it is the AIM SMART tool.
Answer:
a social media link to an article with citations written by a neurobiologist
Explanation:
The link is written by a neurobiologist and those people are train to know the problems in someones nervous system. Dementia and chicken pox has nothing to do with Alzheimers. The company developing a treatment for Alzheirmers isnt about Alzheirmers but just about their treatment. The social media page with a person with Alzheirmers isnt professional and they may not talk about their Alzheirmers either.
