Pathogens are microorganisms that cause infectious diseases. Bacteria and viruses are the main pathogens in the world today.

The major problem that pathogen cause in society is that they are the agents of infection and disease. 

An infection results when a pathogen invades the body and begins growing within a host.  A disease results when tissue function is impaired due to an infection.

Due to diseases, affected people can not work  which negatively affects the economy, and the sick may end up dying causing a lot of grief, and robbing society of a father, a mother or child.

The government has to put money aside for health care which would otherwise have been used for other things to help the society.

On a journey of 600 km, a train was delayed 1 hour and 30 min after having covered 1 4 of the way. To arrive on time at the dest
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

The train travelled 10hours.

Explanation:

Using speed= distance/time ...eq1

Let the time taken by train to cover the journey be t.

Let the speed of train be s

Time= distance/speed ...eq2

Time t =600/s ...eq3

The train is delayed for 1 1/2 hours=3/2 hours

Train increased by 15km/hr.

Train travelled 1/4 of 600k.= 150km.

Speed increased by s + 15 to cover the remaining 450km

t = 150/s + 400/(s + 15) + 3/2 ..eq4

Equating eq3 and 4

600/s= 150/s + 460/(s + 15) + 3/2

450/s = 3/2 + 450/(s + 15)

3s^2 + 45s -13500=0

Solving the quadratic equation

S= -45 +-sqrt(45^2-4(3×13500)/2×3

S= 60 , -75

Hence speed of train is 60km/hr

Using eq 2 distance/speed=time

600/60=10

t= 10hours

Goryan [66]

The solutions and homogeneous mixtures in the given list are:

A. Lead solder, an alloy of tin and lead.

D. Window cleaner, a mixture of ammonia and coloring dissolved in water.

E. Gasoline, a mixture of organic liquids with a fixed composition throughout.

<h3>What is a solution?</h3>

A solution can be defined as a special type of homogeneous mixture that comprises a solute and a solvent.

A homogeneous mixture can be defined as any solid, liquid, or gaseous mixture which has an identical (uniform) composition and properties throughout any given sample of the mixture.

In Science (Physics), all solutions are considered to be a homogeneous mixture because their constituents are uniformly (evenly) distributed.

In conclusion, the solutions and homogeneous mixtures in the given list are:

  • Lead solder, an alloy of tin and lead.
  • Window cleaner, a mixture of ammonia and coloring dissolved in water.
  • Gasoline, a mixture of organic liquids with a fixed composition throughout.

Meaning of direct current
givi [52]

Answer:

Definition of direct current. : an electric current flowing in one direction only and substantially constant in value

Explanation:

Direct current (DC) is the one directional flow of electric charge. An electrochemical cell is a prime example of DC power. Direct current may flow through a conductor such as a wire, but can also flow through semiconductors, insulators, or even through a vacuum as in electron or ion beams. The electric current flows in a constant direction, distinguishing it from alternating current (AC). A term formerly used for this type of current was galvanic current.
