Answer:

The correct answer is d) chopping meat and vegetables on the same cutting board.

Explanation:

There should be two different cutting boards for chopping meat and vegetable separately to prevent cross-contamination. Raw meat may have lots of pathogenic bacteria like S<em>almonella, Shigella, E.coli, Listeria,</em> etc which can contaminate the board and the vegetable which is cut on the same board.

So if you consume the contaminated food then you can get foodborne illnesses. Therefore separate board should be used for cutting veg and non-veg items and the board should be washed with soapy water after each use to wash the remaining bacteria from board. So the right answer is d.

Explanation:

The fertilization in flowering plants takes place by fusing the pollen of one plant or flower with the ovum of another plant or flower of the same species normally and form a zygote. The zygote gets an equal amount of genetic material from both parent plants by the process f exchange of the genetic material.

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

The leukocyte, commonly known as a white blood cell (or WBC), is a major component of the body’s defenses against disease. Leukocytes protect the body against invading microorganisms and body cells with mutated DNA, and they clean up debris. Platelets are essential for the repair of blood vessels when damage to them has occurred; they also provide growth factors for healing and repair.Although leukocytes and erythrocytes both originate from hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow, they are very different from each other in many significant ways. For instance, leukocytes are far less numerous than erythrocytes: Typically there are only 5000 to 10,000 per µL. They are also larger than erythrocytes and are the only formed elements that are complete cells, possessing a nucleus and organelles. And although there is just one type of erythrocyte, there are many types of leukocytes. Most of these types have a much shorter lifespan than that of erythrocytes, some as short as a few hours or even a few minutes in the case of acute infection.

Hope this helps :)
