PPLO stands for Pleuropneumonia-Like Organism and it means: Mycoplasma.
Pleuropneumonia means pneumonia complicated with pleurisy.
Mycoplasma means any of a group of small typically parasitic bacteria that lack cell walls and sometimes cause diseases.
(I hope this helps in anyway possible. Sorry if it's not in 100 words, I couldn't get to that number. But maybe you can put more words into the sentences and make them longer. But I do really hope this has helped you!)

<em>this was the answer on my quiz a couple days ago</em>
The correct answer is marsupials.
<span>Marsupials are any members of the mammalian class Marsupialia and are endemic to Australasia and the Americas. The main characteristic common to these species is that most of the young are carried in a pouch because they give birth to relatively undeveloped young. Examples of marsupials include kangaroos, wallabies, koalas, possums, opossums, wombats, and Tasmanian devils. </span>
Hurricane Floyd was a very powerful Cape Verde hurricane which struck the east coast of the United States. It was the sixth named storm, fourth hurricane, and third major hurricane in the 1999 Atlantic hurricane season. Floyd triggered the fourth largest evacuation in US history (behind Hurricane Irma, Hurricane Gustav, and Hurricane Rita) when 2.6 million coastal residents of five states were ordered from their homes as it approached. The hurricane formed off the coast of Africa and lasted from September 7 to September 19, peaking in strength as a very strong Category 4 hurricane—just 2 mph short of the highest possible rating on the Saffir–Simpson Hurricane Scale. It was among the largest Atlantic hurricanes of its strength ever recorded.

Floyd was once forecast to strike Florida, but turned away. Instead, Floyd struck The Bahamas at peak strength, causing heavy damage. It then paralleled the East Coast of the United States, causing massive evacuations and costly preparations from Florida through the Mid-Atlantic states. The storm weakened significantly, however, before striking the Cape Fear region, North Carolina as a very strong Category 2 hurricane, and caused further damage as it traveled up the Mid-Atlantic region and into New England.
The hurricane produced torrential rainfall in Eastern North Carolina, adding more rain to an area already hit by Hurricane Dennis just weeks earlier. The rains caused widespread flooding over a period of several weeks; nearly every river basin in the eastern part of the state exceeded 500-year flood levels. In total, Floyd was responsible for 57 fatalities and $6.5 billion (1999 USD) in damage. Due to the destruction, the World Meteorological Organization retiredthe name Floyd.
