The cardiovascular system is a system of organs that facilitates the circulation of blood to all parts of the body. Blood is required to reach all living cells as the  blood carries essential elements for cell life and regulation, such as nutrients, amino acids, electrolytes,oxygen and hormones. The blood also has a role in maintaining body temperature, fighting diseases, maintaining a stable pH and maintaining homeostasis. The blood also carries carbon dioxide away from the cells. The cardiovascular system consists of a network of arteries, veins and capillaries, as well as the heart, which acts to pump blood around the body, Blood leaves the heart via arteries and return via veins. The lymphatic system transports lymph, typically at a much slower rate than blood. The lymphatic system is an important part of the immune system. Unlike the cardiovascular system, the lymphatic system is not a closed system. The cardiovascular system processes a lot of blood each day through capillary filtration, which separates the blood cells from the plasma. Not all plasma is re-absorbed into the blood vessels, and the lymphatic system is responsible for returning the remaining plasma to the cardiovascular system.  <span>    </span>

Suppose that a person takes a fall while hiking and develops tetanus when the pathogen enters through an open wound in their arm
qaws [65]

The tetanus infection is considered to be a Droplet infection.

<h3>What is Tetanus?</h3>

Tetanus is a neurological disease which is characterized by the occurrence of spasms in the muscle.

Tetanus can be caused if initial care does not take place after the wound occurs and therefore, it is very important to immediately take care of the wound.

To treat the wound tetanus immunoglobulin and tetanus toxoids are given to the person, however, it is necessary to give the two injections using different syringes and at different sites, because the immunoglobulin can cause neutralization fo the toxoid.

Thus, this could be the answer.
