Answer:
lungs:
The blood first enters the right atrium.
The blood then flows through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle.
When the heart beats, the ventricle pushes blood through the pulmonic valve into the pulmonary artery.
The pulmonary artery carries blood to the lungs where it “picks up” oxygen.
It then leaves the lungs to return to the heart through the pulmonary vein.
The blood enters the left atrium.
It drops through the mitral valve into the left ventricle.
The left ventricle then pumps blood through the aortic valve and into the aorta. The aorta is the artery that feeds the rest of the body through a system of blood vessels.
Blood returns to the heart from the body via two large blood vessels called the superior vena cava and the inferior vena cava. This blood carries little oxygen, as it is returning from the body where oxygen was used.
The vena cavas pump blood into the right atrium and the cycle begins all over again.
Answer:
a. A natural geological challenge that exists in my environment is a fault zone known as the San Andreas Fault. It's a major geological landmark where two tectonic plates meet in California. People in my area are prepared for the event of an earthquake by packing emergency clothes, food, water, shelter, etc. in the event of a major earthquake. Scientists believe that California is past due for a major earthquake in the 6.0-8.0 range that could happen any day now. Hope this helps :)

Answer:
The correct answer is OPTION B (b. Yes—the initial infection might be acute but the virus can later become latent by becoming integrated into the host cell genome).
Explanation:
The hepatitis B virus has an unusual feature similar to retroviruses. This makes it deadly and difficult to treat when it is at an advanced stage. It basically attacks the liver and can cause both an acute and persistent infection.
In the acute stage, the cells are newly attacked and the body is fighting it off, the symptoms might start showing depending on how long it has invaded the body. These symptoms include dark urine, vomiting, yellowing of the skin and eyes (jaundice), the liver can still fail at this stage causing death.
At the persistent stage, which is already chronic, the invaded cells have been weakened, the symptoms are slow to resolve therefore it is in a prolonged stage which can lead to liver cancer and eventual death.
