Answer:

Trypanosoma ------------ causes Chagas disease.

Trypanosoma -------------- causes African sleeping sickness.

Giardia --------------------- transmitted by feces in drinking water.  

Trichomonas ------------ sexually transmitted.

Histoplasma ------------- causes Ohio Valley fever.

Explanation:

<u>- Trypanosoma cruzi </u>is a parasite transmitted by the bite of an insect of the Triatominae subfamily, very common in rural areas. It causes weakening of the heart muscle and heart failure, characteristic of Chagas disease.

<u>- Trypanosoma brucei</u> is a hemoparasite - found in the blood - transmitted by the tse-tse fly. Causes African trypanosomiasis or African sleeping sickness, characterized by progressive involvement of the central nervous system.

<u>- Giardia lamblia</u> is a parasite that is predominantly found in the duodenum. Infestation by this biological agent produces abdominal pain, nausea and belching with an unpleasant taste. It is transmitted by water contaminated with feces.

<u>- Trichomonas vaginalis</u> is a parasite that is transmitted through sexual contact, and produces vaginal trichomoniasis, a disease that causes inflammation and secretion in the genitals of men and women.

<u>- Histoplasma capsulatum</u> is a fungus that produces the disease called Ohio Valley fever (histoplasmosis), characterized by cough with expectoration, respiratory distress, fever, headache and severe muscle aches.

Metabolites are small molecules that:
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

C) generally consist of 1,000 different substances

Explanation:

Metabolites are compounds, usually organic, that participate in the chemical reactions that take place at the cellular level. The set of these biochemical reactions, together with the intracellular physical-chemical processes, constitutes the cellular metabolism, the molecular basis of life. The metabolism includes the degradation of molecules for obtaining energy (catabolism) and the synthesis of molecules necessary for growth, reproduction and repair (anabolism).

The succession of metabolic reactions that transform a given initial substance into another is known as a metabolic pathway. The starting substance is known as a substrate or raw material. The final substance is usually known as the final product or metabolite (a metabolic pathway can generate several final products) and the intermediate substances as intermediate metabolites. An intermediate or final metabolite in one metabolic pathway may be the substrate in another, which makes the vast majority of metabolic pathways interconnected.

Metabolites can be classified into two large groups, primary and secondary. Primary metabolites are defined as those that are directly involved in the normal growth, development and reproduction of an organism with an important physiological function. On the contrary, secondary metabolites are not directly involved in these processes. The absence of a primary metabolite usually leads to immediate or short-term death while the absence of a secondary metabolite does not.

<em>According to the different types and diverse functions that fulfill there are an immense amount of metabolites</em>

Only individuals belonging to the same species are able to
True [87]

There are some possible answers which all mean the same thing:

- Produce fertile offspring

- Produce offspring

- Reproduce


→ Only individuals of a same species (sometimes genus) can reproduce because in order to reproduce animals need to have a similar genetic code, and there is now code more similar than the one of individuals of their own species.



Hope it helped,
