Answer:
Patient portals!! I've studied it!! :)
Answer:
The correct answer is D.
Explanation:
Bordetella pertussis is a gram-negative coccobacillus that causes a disease called whooping cough.
The bacterium infests the patients by colonizing lung epithelial cells. To do so, it requires adhesins, called filamentous haemagglutinin, fimbriae and pertactin. Once the bacterium is attached to the lung epithelial cells, it produces a cytotoxin that prevents their cilia from moving.
Another virulent factor from B. pertussis is the pertussis toxin, which alters host immune system through the inhibition of phagocytes response to it.
Answer: dependency is more likely in cultures where access to alcohol is carefully controlled.
Explanation:
Studies have shown that in cultures where access to alcohol is carefully controlled and viewed as a sign of adulthood, dependency is more likely than in cultures where alcohol is used in religious and ceremonial activities.
This has been put down to people tending to abuse alcohol when they get access to it as opposed to cultures where it is readily available.
