Why do you think the ecological footprint of bangladesh is so small why is it so large for people in the united states?
EleoNora [17]

The ecological footprint of the average people of Bangladesh  is 0.5 global hectares per person which much less than  average of the world ( 2.84 global hectares per capita ) .it indicates that a low purchasing power of Bangladesh . less consumption means less production .also there are few industries in Bangladesh. This is the reason the ecological footprint of Bangladesh is so small .

The United states ecological footprint is larger than that of other countries because per capita consumption of energy and a wide range of goods of all kinds is greater . wastes ,including carbon dioxide ,are greater as ell , adding to the relative size of the footprint . this is the reason the ecological footprint of the people of United states is large .

Hence ,the ecological footprint of Bangladesh  is so small and the ecological footprint of United states is so large .

Good afternoon everyone Umm What is refraction of light hope it's easy good day ✌️​
jeyben [28]
Refraction is the bending of light (it also happens with sound, water and other waves) as it passes from one transparent substance into another. This bending by refraction makes it possible for us to have lenses, magnifying glasses, prisms and rainbows.

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

e. staphylococcal enterotoxin

Explanation:

Staphylococcal enterotoxin is a toxin that is produced by the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus. It is a toxin found inside the gastrointestinal tracts of the human body which is why it is called an enterotoxin and it results in food poisoning when consumed by humans.

Staphylococcal enterotoxin is proteinous in nature and it can be found on dairy products such as milk or cheeses that have been contaminated by Staphylococcus aureus.

After consumption of the contaminated milk or cheeses, the person begins to experience symptoms of nausea, diarrhea as well as vomiting.

Staphylococcal enterotoxin is a very heat stable toxin which means even though you heat up a food contaminated with this toxin, the bacteria may die by the toxins would still remain in the food.

The best way to avoid food poisoning by Staphylococcal enterotoxin is to avoid eating contaminated foods.
