Answer: The pathogen has lost the function of the ability to adhere to cells of the body.
Explanation:
Neisseria gonorrhea is a gram negative bacteria that has the ability to attack and cause disease in man using its virulent factors. It is know to attack the urethra of both male and female producing an acute urethritis and tenda to spread locally if not treated. The virulent factors determines the ability of the organism to infect or damage it's hosts tissues and they include:
--> endotoxins
--> pilli
--> fimbriae
--> capsule polysaccharide expression
The fimbriae is one of the virulent determinants which the organism uses to attach to the host cells. As these bacteria multiple and grow, there are chances of mutation occuring. MUTATION is defined as the errors during DNA replication or induced by exposure to mutagens (like chemicals and radiation)
If the bacteria is affected by mutation, which can cause the gene for fimbriae production not to be expressed, the virulent factor of the organism will be highly affected as the first step to cause an Infection which is attachment is lost.
The electron transport chain produces 6 H2O molecules, and 32 ATP
The right option is; it interprets signals from the external environment
The peripheral nervous system (PNS) is made up of all parts of the nervous system, except the brain and spinal cord (parts of the central nervous system). The peripheral nervous system functions as a channel through which neural signals are transferred from and to the central nervous system. Two types of neurons (sensory and motor neurons) functions in the PNS. The motor neurons transfer neural signals from the central nervous system directly to various muscles, glands, and organs (effectors) throughout the body.
