Even if a microorganism is a part of the normal microbiota of a human being, it may cause the death of the person. For example, say E. coli, it resides in intestines and is harmful. But, if its number increases way too large, it may cause infection (Colitis) and even death. So, even the normal microflora needs to be  present in the controlled quantities, inside the body.

Answer:

The patient was immunocompromised or the microbiota moved to an unprotected sites in the patient.

Explanation:

<em>The normal member of the human microbiota can cause disease in immunocompromised individuals or when the microbiota move to an unprotected sites in the body of an individual.</em>

Immunocompromised individuals are those whose immune systems are not fully functional due to reasons such as genetic defects, taking of immunnosuppressive drugs, or infection by immune-targeting pathogens.  

Normal microbiota are known to be opportunistic pathogens that are capable of causing infections when a host becomes immunocompromised or when they moved from their regular habitats to an unprotected site within the body.

For example, <em>Staphylococcus epididermis</em> which happens to be one of the normal microbiota of the skin's epidermis might cause an infection if the surface of the skin breaks and the organism moves to the deeper lying tissues.

Hence, it could be that the patient was immunocompromised or the mirobiota moved to an unprotected sites within the body of the patient.

How have anthropologists attempted to address the negative effects of massive cultural change imposed on less powerful groups by
Mkey [24]

Explanation:

Mass culture is a set of cultural objects, goods or services, produced by cultural industries, which are aimed at a diverse audience.

According to critics, such as Adorno, the mass follows the same thing. According to the Frankfurt School, mass culture is the main means through which capital would have achieved its greatest success. Then, the whole system of mass production of goods, services and ideas would have accepted, in general terms, the model imposed by the capitalist system by the hand of consumerism, technology and rapid satisfaction. This culture is defined through the mass media from the nineteenth century (printing, radio, cinema, television, and even today with the Internet). From this appear the mass societies that are shaped by a society of individuals aligned to capitalism, where the bourgeoisie has the power to introduce products, ideologies, etc. into society. and thus curtail the freedom of expression of a fully capitalized society.

It is considered as the development of a new model in which differences and inequalities are reinforced with increasingly developed marketing strategies and instruments. Science and knowledge are put at the service of the production of stereotyped values ​​and symbols.

The three fundamental pillars of this culture are: a commercial culture, a consumer society and an advertising institution

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

6 thymine, 4 guanine. 4 cytosine

Explanation:

Adenine pairs with thymine, so you need 6 of each

Cytosine matches with guanine, but the total of nucleotides is 20, so

6(adenine)+6(thymine)=12

20-12=8

8= 4(guanine)+4(cytosine)
