4 0

Answer:Civets are mongoose-like animals found throughout Africa and Asia and only distantly related to the common house cat. Some species are ground-dwelling and omnivorous, although the Chinese species tied to the SARS virus, the masked palm civet, lives in trees and eat oranges, papayas and mangos.

Explanation:Other animals suspected of carrying the SARS virus and ordered slaughtered include raccoon dogs, a primitive canine with raccoon-like facial markings, and three types of badgers.

Which of the zoonotic diseases discussed in the unit do you think you would be most interested in studying? Why?
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

It would be interesting to study the<em> "Eloba Virus disease" </em>because I wanted to know why it is fatal and how people can prevent contracting it.

Explanation:

In order to know more about Ebola Virus disease, it would be best to learn what Zoonotic disease means.

<em>Zoonotic disease- </em>This is also known as "Zoonosis." This is defined as an infectious disease that is <u>naturally</u> transferred between animals and people. It can be caused by a<u> parasite, virus or bacteria.</u>

Examples of zoonotic disease are: bird flu, anthrax, bovine tuberculosis, cat scratch fever, ebola virus disease, etc.

Ebola Virus-  This is a deadly disease that is cause by a group of viruses from the genus<u> Ebolavirus.</u> This disease can be contracted through <em>direct contact </em>with the infected person's or animal's <em>body fluid.</em> Once the virus enters the body, it breaks the body's first line of defense. This means that the person's immune system will weaken. The person will then experience <u><em>fever and internal bleeding.</em></u> Due to its fatality, Ebola virus disease is also being called<u> Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever.</u>

Studying the Ebola Virus disease will allow people to learn the best preventive measure from contracting it and will also bring<u><em> awareness on the nature of the disease.</em></u>

A 6-year-old boy has a 1-year history of moderate persistent asthma that is normally well controlled with budesonide via dry pow
Kay [80]

Answer:

A peak expiratory flow (PEF) measurement

Explanation:

The peak expiratory flow (PEF), or peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR), is a person's maximum speed of expiration, as measured with a peak flow meter, a small, hand-held device used to monitor a person's ability to breath out air. It measures the airflow through the bronchi and thus the degree of obstruction in the airways. Peak expiratory flow is typically measured in units of liters per minute (L/min).

Measurements may be based on 1 second or less but are usually reported as a volume per minute. Electronic devices will sample the flow and multiply the same volume (Liters) by 60, divided by the sample (seconds) for a result measured in L/minute: (sample volume*60)/sample time.

Peak flow readings are often classified into 3 zones of measurement according to the American Lung Association, green, yellow, and red.

Green zone: 80 to 100 percent of the usual or normal peak flow readings are clear. A peak flow reading in the green zone indicates that the asthma is under good control.

Yellow zone: 50 to 59 percent of the usual or normal peak flow readings. Indicates caution. It may mean respiratory airways are narrowing and additional medication may be required.

Red zone: less than 50 percent of the usual or normal peak flow readings. Indicates medical emergency. Severe airway narrowing may be occurring and immediate action needs to be taken. This would usually involve contacting a doctor or hospital.
