Stolb23 [73]3 years ago

<span>Clumped dispersion is the most common type found in nature. The distance between neighboring individual is at a minimum. This is common among organisms that are usually preyed such as in herds or family groups. Evenly spaced distribution maximizes the distances between individuals. There is usually competition for a resource. Penguins are an example of this distribution. Random distribution or unpredictable spacing is the least common among the three. Each individual is independent of the other. They occur in environments that have consistent environmental resources and conditions. </span>

A body of granite was found to underlie sandstone. pieces of sandstone were found in the granite. which is younger, the granite
serg [7]
It is obvious that the sandstone is older than the granite. This is because the sandstone had to already exist when the granite formed from molten rock, as some of the sandstone was captured within the layer of hardening granite. The geological principle of inclusions supports this conclusion.<span> Inclusions, in this case the sandstone, are always older than the rock they are found in. </span>

A client has thin, dark-red vertical lines about 1 to 3 mm long in the nails. Which diseases are associated with this physiologi
qaws [65]

Answer:

- Trichinosis

- Bacterial endocarditis

Explanation:

Trichinosis is a parasitic infection that has as its etiological agent the nematode parasites of the genus Trichinella, and the species of greatest interest to human medicine is Trichinella spiralis.  One of the first and characteristic symptoms of infection is the swelling of the eyelids, which appears around the 11th day after infection. Subsequently hemorrhages appear in the eye sclera and in the back of the eyes, eye pain and photosensitivity. Then there is the appearance of muscle pain, along with a rash and bleeding below the nails causing dark red vertical lines about 1 to 3 mm long. The pain is intense in the muscles linked to breathing, chewing and swallowing.

Bacterial endocarditis is always associated with a bacteremia that the immune system has failed to counteract. In other words, the presence of bacteria in the bloodstream, which is usually sterile, represents an important cause of bacterial endocarditis, an infection that affects the inner membrane lining the heart and heart valves, especially if they already have a disorder. The disease sets in when bacteria from various parts of the body - from the mouth mainly, but also from the skin, intestines, respiratory tract, and urinary tract - are carried through the bloodstream to a heart valve or other damaged endocardial area where fix it. Among the many symptoms, indicative of the presence of this disease in the body are thin dark red vertical lines about 1 to 3 mm long in the nails.

In general, why might cell-wall inhibiting antimicrobial drugs be less effective on gram-negative bacteria compared to gram-posi
asambeis [7]

Cell-wall inhibiting antimicrobial drugs be less effective on gram-negative bacteria compared to gram-positive bacteria because the outer membrane of the gram-negative bacteria inhibits penetration of the drug and the peptidoglycan found in gram-positive bacteria is structurally different from that in gram-negative bacteria.  

Answer: Option B & C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Antimicrobial drugs are induced into a body to act on that particular selective bacterium which causes disease. When antimicrobial drugs are injected they act efficiently on the gram positive bacteria inhibiting the proliferation of the cells by acting on the cell wall so that cell multiplication doesn’t happen.

On the other hand it is hard to act on the gram-negative bacteria as it has a cell membrane that inhibits drug penetration into it. Both cell walls contain peptidoglycan but in the gram-positive is more assembled and layered while in the gram-negative it is just a thin layer. As gram-positive is thick layered it provides place for another molecule to attach to it but the thin layer in gram-negative inhibits it.
