Balamuthia mandrillaris is an amoeba that was discovered in 1986 in the brain of the baboon that dies in San Diego Wild Animal Park. This can be found in the soil and water, therefore it is freely living. It is known to cause the neurological condition known as granulomatous amoebic encephalitis. In a study published by National Center for Biotechnology Information, it has a case fatality rate of >98%. Majority of this case can be found in warmer regions that affects individuals mostly of Hispanic origin. Documented cases had been reported from the Latin Americas in significant number, followed by the United States, Asian regions and some in Europe. However, a specific number of cases worldwide may never be known due to the following factors: lack of awareness, poor diagnosis and a poor public health system.
It is still yet to be known if its a serious public health concern worldwide.
Answer:
myofibril bulbous end of axon and skeletal muscles fibres.
Explanation:o
It represents the chemical synapse of the axon bulbous ends of the motor neuron ( motor end plate) and the skeletal Muscle fibres.
The influx of calcium ions into the bulbous ends leads to the fusion and empty of the vesicles containing neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft.
The Neurotransmitters binds to the receptors on the muscles membrane to allow the transmission of action potential ( PSIP or PSEP)across the synaptic gap to the muscles fibers to initiate their contraction or relaxation.
