Answer:

The answer is described below

Explanation:

Hepatitis C infection results from exposure to blood and other organic fluids infected with the hepatitis C virus.  After infection, <u>acute hepatitis</u> occurs. Some of the patients present jaundice (yellowing of skin and eyes) although many do not and may not notice they're infected. Spontaneous resolution may occur in less than half of the patiens in this stage within six months after infection. Those who do not, progress on to develop chronic hepatitis. About one third or less of these patients will progress to cirrhosis that takes about 25 to 30 years to develop. Chronic hepatitis may also cause liver cancer and other diseases and may be diagnosed by the presence of HCV RNA after six months of infection.

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is ''gravity.''

Explanation:

Tropisms are movements or changes in posture that a living being normally makes in response to a continuous environmental stimulus. Plants have hormones that respond to the gravitational impulse of our planet. Gravity deeply influences their growth and development (positive geotropism) and plants have been found to bend in response to gravity due to redistribution of the plant hormone auxin at the root tip, so that auxin is redistributed to the underside of a root that grows when it is rotated 90 degrees, the stems will still grow upward, away from the center of the Earth (negative geotropism), just as roots will always grow in the reverse direction (positive geotropism).
