Athletes foot is also caused by fungi
Parathyriod glands produce a parathyriod hormone aka PTH
Answer:
1. While Biology is the study of living things, living things themselves are made up of chemical composition. Our survival is dependant on the reactions taking place inside and outside the body. Hence, to understand living things, biologists needs a good understanding of chemistry.
2. 170 pm is the radius of a Carbon Atom.
3. The vast majority of the mass of an atom is concentrated in its nucleus
4. Protons are found in the nucleus of the atom. This is a tiny, dense region at the center of the atom. Protons have a positive electrical charge of one (+1) and a mass of 1 atomic mass unit (amu), which is about 1.67×10−27 kilograms.
5. Neutrons are located with protons in the nucleus; they too exchange mesons with protons and with each other to form the strong nuclear force, but they do not have to overcome the repulsion from Coulomb forces since neutrons are not charged.
Answer: false
Explanation: this can only be true if the genes in the genomic library fragments have been identified and if the mutation is an SNP and not an inversion or deletion or insertion, whether they were cloned into plasmids or not.
Answer: Diagnosis: The presence of nitrites in the urine confirms the urinary tract infection.
Explanation:
Treatment: The urinary tract infection will be concerned with the antibiotic therapy to kill the bacteria producing excess nitrites. Educating K.N. about the risk factors associated with the multiple sex partners and transfer of bacteria through sexual contact.
Use of fluroquinolones and nitrofurantoin:
Fluroquinolones: This is an antibiotic which has bacteriocidal property can be useful in the treatment of urinary tract infections.
Nitrofurantoin: It is an effective antibiotic in killing bacteria it gets activated inside the bacteria.
Nitrituria is a condition in which the nitrites are present in the urine that is indicative of the presence of bacterial infection. It is caused by the <em>E. coli</em> bacteria inside the urinary tract. It is responsible for converting the nitrates into nitrites.
