What would be the most effective method of reducing the incidence of blood flukes in a human population?

Biology
1 answer:
o-na [289]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

By the use of uncontaminated water

Explanation:

Blood flukes are flatworms that are parasitic in nature. These are also called schistosomes.

If we consider the mode of transmission of the parasites to humans, we find that their transmission occurs in the following conditions -

  • These parasites enter the human body when a person is swimming in contaminated water.
  • They can also infect the human body if the person drinks contaminated water or eats food that have been washed with the contaminated water.

Thus it becomes clear that contaminated water is the main source of infection of blood flukes so using uncontaminated water and avoiding to be in contact with contaminated water will reduce the incidence of blood flukes in human population.

How do scientists explain the discovery of crinoids in the Wasatch Mountains?
Nostrana [21]
<span>The mountains were once seas. The land was forced up by tectonic motion when the mountains were formed. The Sahara also used to be a sea and has a valley full of the fossilized remains of an extinct species of whale. It is generally agreed upon that two plates colliding caused the uplift that created the mountainous zone. Same for the Himalayas.</span>

What is the main reason that energy is harvested in stages in cellular respiration?
vovangra [49]
In order to "invest" in later stages to get more energy per glucose molecule. It could also be because that is how it is done, it wouldn't be as efficient unless these stages were performed.

Which goes where ? Mitosis Vs. Meiosis
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Mitosis, Meiosis, and both are written below

Explanation:

Mitosis: produces more somatic (body) cells, purpose is for healing and growing, the daughter cells are exact replicas

  • This is because mitosis occurs in body cells and is used for growth, so all the daughter cells are the same.

Meiosis: results in sex cells (gametes), results in eggs and sperm, purpose is for creating new individuals (eventually), each daughter cell is different, has 2 separate division stages

  • This is because meiosis occurs in gametes and is used in reproduction.

Both: Chromosomes need to replicate before the whole process begins, a form of reproduction

  • This is because both are reproducing (they are dividing) and DNA must be replicated so each daughter cell has it.
