The period of Convalescence is the time during which the person regains health and fully recovers.

Explanation:

  • Diseases that can spread from one person to other  are called infectious disease.
  • Disease development is divided into Incubation period, Prodromal period, period of illness, Decline period, and period of Convalescence.
  • During incubation period the pathogen enters the host body and starts multiplying itself. But the signs of diseases are unnoticeable.
  • Then comes  the prodromal period, when the pathogen keeps multiplying itself and some signs of disease are observed but they are not obvious
  • After the prodromal period comes the period of illness when the patient exhibits obvious signs of sickness.
  • As the period of illness is over the symptoms of disease start to cease and the the number of pathogen decrease in body.This period is the period of decline.
  • Finally comes the period of Convalescence when the person returns to his pre-disease state and is completely healthy. (except irreversible damage caused by the disease)

Alona [7]

Enzymes within the Golgi enclose them in a new vesicle that buds from the surface of the Golgi apparatus and moderate the proteins apparatus. The vesicles migrate to the membrane and release their protein to the outside of the cell.  Lysosomes digest and recycle the waste materials for reuse by the cell.  The Golgi apparatus is often seen as the packaging and distribution center of the cell.Vesicles transport the proteins from the ribosomes to the Golgi apparatus, a.k.a Golgi complex, where they are packaged into new vesicles.

oee [108]

Milk is converted to yogurt under certain conditions when the microorganisms in the milk produce acid. Which of these processes would you expect to be key in the production of yogurt?

a. Photosynthesis

b. Lactic acid fermentation

c. Krebs cycle

d. Alcoholic fermentation

Answer:

b. Lactic acid fermentation

Explanation:

Lactic acid fermentation occurs when pyruvate formed by glycolysis is reduced into lactate under the anaerobic conditions. The NADH serves as an electron donor for the reduction of pyruvate into lactic acid. Lactic acid bacteria are the anaerobic bacteria that ferment the milk sugar lactose into lactic acid. This converts the milk into yogurt. <em>Lactobacillus, Streptococcus salivarius</em>, etc. are mostly responsible for the conversion of milk into yogurt.
