mariarad [96]

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.

What is the difference between a photoheterotroph and chemoheterotroph, and what are examples of these?
Lady_Fox [76]
 So, a chemoheterotroph is an organism that acquires energy from chemical bonds, and uses acquires organic carbon from an external source (usually, in this case, the energy and carbon come from the same source, e.g., glucose). A photoheterotroph is an organism that gains energy from photons, but gains carbon from an external organic source. Most bacteria, fungi, and animals can easily be described as a chemoheterotroph. A specific bacteria would be Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Photoheterotrophs would only be found in the prokaryote domains. An example would be Heliobacter. Just to note, there are very few genera of photoheterotrophs. Remember, they gain most of their energy from light (photons), and their carbon from an external organic source (i.e., they do not fix carbon).

How would Earth be different without the greenhouse effect?
madam [21]
B more ice on the earths surface. Greenhouse gases don’t tend to block the solar energy, but trap the energy that radiates from the earths surface. Dissolved CO2 becomes carbonic acid. More CO2 results in more carbonic acid. Methane is one of the greenhouse gases.
