Answer:
Trophic Cascade
Explanation:
Trophic cascade is when the ecosystem experiences a level of a certain species being reduced or removed.
Answer:
Take medicine to destroy the germs.
Avoid contact with other people's bodily fluids.
Eat healthful foods such as fruits and vegetables.
Explanation:
For the spread of disease, there is usually a host who bears the infectious agent, the agent exits through a port of exit from the host, is carried by a mode of transmission, then enters a susceptible second host through a port of entry. To stop transmission, stopping the infectious agent can include;
- Stopping the agent from leaving the host through port of exit – e.g quarantine the patient
- Curtailing the modes of transmission – e.g killing disease vectors
- Protecting the ports of entry in the susceptible second potential host – e.g by improving immunity
The bacteria which had mutation became resistant to the antibiotic and survived and keeps on increasing, promoting natural selection.
Explanation:
The bacteria rapidly divide, the chances of mutation in the gene increases manifold.
The strains of bacteria causing tuberculosis and staph infection got mutated at DNA level such that they became resistant to antibiotics when tested those susceptible did not survive. These mutations were not harmful to bacteria and the resultant bacteria survived.
These bacteria which survived and proliferated as the environment was in their favour.
Thus, Darwin's Theory of Natural Selection is acceptable here as it says if a mutation is occurring towards the increase in population, they will be selected ones.
