<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option A which is communication.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Nerve cells have a different structure from other types of body cells due to a different function.

The function of the nerve cell is to communicate the nerve signals in the nervous system from the receptor to the brain and from the brain to the effector.

The nerve cell has a cell body and an extended fiber type area known as the axon.

This specific structure is suitable for the transport of nerve impulse from one end to another which is for the communication between two nerve cells.

An infant has a strange rash. Some of the rash is swabbed and examined under the microscope. A mass of threadlike structures is observed. So, this infection be treated with an anti-fungal cream

OTC creams will deal with the infection (e.g., Lamisil, Lotrimin, Micatin, Tinactin), however, in some cases oral drugs are fundamental.

In infants, Fungi can cause superficial infection, i.e., on skin, nails, and hair like oral thrush, candida diaper rash, fungal infection, and so forth, are different kinds of superficial fungal infections, subcutaneous contagious disease in tissues under the skin and finally it causes systemic infection in more profound tissues.

The primary structure of most fungi consists of fine, spreading, normally dull threads like structures called hyphae. Every fungus will have immense quantities of these hyphae, all interlacing to make up a tangled web called the mycelium.

Answer:

Yes, there is no convincing scientific evidence that thimerosal causes harm by the low doses of thimerosal in vaccines, except for minor reactions like redness and swelling at the injection site

Explanation:

Thimerosal has been used safely as a vaccine additive, added to some vaccines to prevent germs like bacteria and fungi from growing in them dated since early 1930s. Though, Thimerosal contains mercury but the type of mercury doesn’t stays in the body, and is unlikely to make human fall sick.

Most people doesn't have any allergic reaction to it except for redness and swelling at the injection site as early mentioned and this is considered irrelevant when compared to effect of vaccine when contaminated by germ which could cause serious illness or death.

The ATP molecule shown is the universal energy source for cellular activities. Which of these processes is used to break down gl
sveta [45]
Let's do this by process of elimination: A cannot be the answer because glucose is broken down, not built up or synthesized. B is ruled out for the same reason. D is incorrect because transpiration results in water loss, not energy gain. The only correct answer choice is C respiration, specifically by the process of substrate-level phosphorylation during glycolysis in order to break down glucose into two pyruvate molecules and two net ATP
