Can you please tell me an explanation of what happens during the metaphase stage of mitosis?
Goshia [24]
Sure! The metaphase stage in the cel is the third step in mitosis. The chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell due to the fact that the spindle fibers pull them towards the middle (the chromosomes are in a single file line). In addition, the spindle fibers connect to the centromeres. Hope this helps :)

Answer:

List three protozoan infections of the circulatory system that are transmitted by arthropods:

Malaria

Toxoplasmosis

Chagas disease (American trypanosomiasis)

Explanation:

Malaria is a prozotoan infection, that can be produced by several protozoan, in the genus Plasmodium. This Plasmodium infect red blood cells and the vector that trasmites it is the Anopheles mosquitoe. In this disease, red blood cells can have severe damage in different organs because of the hemolysis.

Toxoplasmosis is a disease caused by the protozoan Toxoplasma gondii. The main vector of them are domestic cats. When cats are infected, T. gondii oocysts is found in their feces and it can spread to humans. This disease is generally asymptomatic, except when the patient has AIDS or in pregnancy, which can be very dangerous and fatal.

Chagas disease, or American trypanosomiasis is caused by protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi and is generally transmitted to people thanks to the feces of triatomine bugs. Some of the acute symptoms include fever, vomiting, headache, and in severe cases people can develop a chronic disease. In the worst cases it can produce flaccid cardiomegaly (enlargement of the heart) leading to heart failure and death.
