Answer: A. endocarditis

Explanation:

Endocarditis is the inflammatory process of the endocardium, especially that located in the heart valves. There are several factors causing endocarditis, the most frequent and lethal being endocarditis caused by infectious agents. The most common mechanism is endothelial injury due to blood flow turbulence, be the one generated by a defective valve (rheumatic, bicuspid aortic valve, dysfunctional valve prosthesis), or by any congenital anomaly that causes flow turbulence (interventricular communication, obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, aortic coarctation).

The most common site of injury, and therefore the most frequent site of vegetation formation, is at the closing line of a valve, usually on the atrial surface of the atrioventricular valves or on the ventricular surface of the ventriculoarterial valves. With the endothelial lesion occurs the formation of a sterile thrombus, which can be colonized by bacteria that multiply there, turning the thrombus into vegetation. These vegetations are avascularized, making the treatment of endocarditis difficult due to the low access of antibiotics to microorganisms.

Answer:

A. near-Earth objects.

Explanation:

Science can be defined as a branch of intellectual and practical study which systematically observe a body of fact in relation to the structure and behavior of non-living and living organisms (animals, plants and humans) in the natural world through experiments.

When scientists discuss objects that might hit Earth, the term which they use to describe them as a group is near-Earth objects.

A near-Earth objects can be defined as a small solar system body such as comets and asteroids whose orbit draws it close or in proximity to the earth's orbit due to the gravitational force of attraction of nearby planetary bodies.

Basically, if the closest approach of a planetary body to the Sun is less than 1.3 AU it is considered to be a near-Earth objects.

Hence, near-Earth objects may pose a collision danger to planet earth.
