Answer:

Because the trophozoites are unable to survive outside a host.

Explanation:

The term infectious is used for a disease or microorganism that can be transmitted from one organism to the other organism through the environment. If we look at the two forms of Giardia, we find that out of the two forms viz. cysts and trophozoites, only the cysts of Giardia have the ability to remain alive in the environment outside the host and thus they are able to be transmitted to the other organisms. On the other hand trophozoites are not able to survive in outside environment so there is no chance of transmission of trophozoites.

Question 5 unsaved adding a unit to move a susceptible group enough to prevent metabolism is known as
mrs_skeptik [129]
<span>adding a unit to move a susceptible group enough to prevent metabolism is known as shifting.
These phenomena happen especially for liposoluble organism circulating in blood like drugs an hormones.
these molecules circulating blood can be divided into two forms : 
The free-form: which is the active part, it circulates freely in the blood, but are easily metabolised.
The bound form: it can be bound to other molecules from the organisms depending on its affinity like proteins (albumin, glycoproteins). this form is not active but is prevented from metabolism.

Competition for bounding proteins can happen between two drugs for example. If they have a different degree of affinity for proteins, then the most affine will displace the less affine from the protein and bound it, and that is call shifting</span>

Double fertilization results in the formation of  one diploid embryo and a triploid endosperm. Double fertilization is characterized by the formation of two embryos; the embryo proper which is diploid and the fusion product of the central cell with one male gamete which is triploid. This secondary triploid zygote develops into the endosperm.
