Acids are solutions/substances that tend to break off to make a hydrogen (H+) ion when placed in an aqueous solution; i.e. solution with water as its solvent.
Bases, on the other hand, produce a hydroxide ion (OH-) when placed in an aqueous solution.
Thus, by definition, we can safely assume that a solution containing a large number of hydroxide ions is considered a base.
If you are unclear about this, or still need help, please feel free to ask me further. Thank you.

A person can get cholera by drinking water or eating food contaminated with cholera bacteria. In an epidemic, the source of the contamination is usually the feces of an infected person that contaminates water or food. The disease can spread rapidly in areas with inadequate treatment of sewage and drinking water.
Explanation:
The mode of transmission of Cholera is through fecal contamination of food or water. Transmission is therefore closely associated to poor environmental management due water and sanitation issues
Fungi are more related to animals than plants because they are not photosynthetic. They can be harmful because they do not respond to traditional antibiotic but they are also commercially beneficial especially in the food industry that uses yeast like baking, brewing and cheese and wine making. The pileus is the term given to the cap-like structure of the fungi. It supports the spore-bearing surface which is the hymenium which consists of lamellae, tube or teeth on the underside of the pileus. Annulus is the ring-like structure found in the stipes of some species of mushroom and is a remnant of the partial veil. Stipe is the stem or stalk of the mushroom that supports the cap of the mushroom. Volva is the caplike structure found at the base of the fungi which is a remnant of the universal veil. Hypha is the long, branching, filamentous structure of a fungus that is the main mode of vegetative growth. Each fungus has a vast number of these hyphae which are intertwined to make a tangled web called mycelium. Through mycelium, fungus absorb nutrients from its environment.
I'm guessing its proteins and glucose??????
