Answer:

<em>Food and shelter are the most likely limiting factors in this case.</em>

Explanation:

In a forest, the huge trees act as a source of shelter for the animals that live in that habitat. It protects the animals from the heat of the Sun and extreme cold conditions.

The tress in the forest are the primary source of food for almost all the organisms that live in the forest. Cutting down trees will lead to food scarcity for the animals which inhabit that forest. As a result, the animals will either have to migrate or they will become die due to lack of food.

Hence, food and shelter are the limiting factors in this case.

Doctors are seeing an alarming increase in the number of cases of tuberculosis (TB) that is resistant to drugs commonly used to
WARRIOR [948]

Ans.

Tuberculosis (TB) is a bacterial infection that affects mainly respiratory tract and can be transmitted from one to another person through contaminated air. The causative agent of tuberculosis, <em>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</em> has developed resistance against many antibiotics, such as rifampin and isoniazid, which is known as tuberculosis drug resistance.

If a person infected with TB shows drug resistance against some TB drugs, 'doctors should give other TB drugs to that person, even if these drugs show less effect than common drugs'. This is because these drugs can prevent or kill the bacterium more effectively than the common drugs for which, bacterium is resistance.
