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.

Can plzzz <br>put the explanations was to why one is correct and why the others are wrong​

Hi there!

<h3>Question 15:</h3>

We can see from the graph the spikes during the dry years in beak size, which happen every single time there is a dry year. We can then reasonably infer that this would happen with an extended period of drought, however more significantly as well.

This makes your answer B, the birds with larger beaks would be more numerous.

Looking through the other answer choices - A is incorrect, as just stated above the larger ones would likely become more numerous. C is also incorrect, as we can see from the graph during dry years it does influence ground finches. Finally, D is also incorrect, as we can see the average obviously moving upwards to those with bigger beaks.

<h3>Question 16:</h3>

We are given that during dry years, the finches eat larger seeds as the smaller seeds are less abundant. This means that those finches with larger beaks would have an advantage for survival, as it is easier for them to eat these larger seeds compared to those with smaller beaks. This then means that more and more finches with larger beaks would survive, making the overall population have larger beaks over time.

This makes your answer C, different adaptations gave some birds a better chance for survival.

Looking through the other answer choices - A is incorrect, as they cannot just decide to acquire larger beaks. B is incorrect, as mutations do not just happen and cause such a big shift, and in an efficient direction (most mutations end up not affecting the animal at all. Finally, D is incorrect, as I don't think beaks have the capability of getting larger as they are exercised more.

Hope this helps! Feel free to let me know if you have any additional questions about this specific problem.

The D period refers to the stage between the end of DNA replication and the splitting of the bacterial cell into two daughter cells. In cells with a nucleus, as in eukaryotes, the cell cycle is also divided into three periods: interphase, the mitotic (M) phase, and cytokinesis.
