Sediments are loose Earth<span> materials such as </span>sand<span> that accumulate on the land surface, in river and </span>lake<span> beds, and on the </span>ocean<span> floor. Sediments form by </span>weathering<span> of rock. They then erode from the site of weathering and are transported by </span>wind<span>, </span>water<span>, </span>ice<span>, and </span>mass wasting<span>, all operating under the influence of gravity. Eventually sediment settles out and accumulates after transport; this process is known as deposition. Sedimentation is a general term for the processes of </span>erosion, transport, and deposition. Sedimentology is the study of sediments and sedimentation.<span>

NISA [10]

The condition which is most likely to cause death of a botulism patient is Respiratory failure.

Explanation:

The causal organism of Botulism is the bacteria <em>Clostridium botulinum.</em>

It is usually found in canned food and causes a very severe food poisoning.

The bacteria release botulinum toxin on reaching the intestine of the person and from their the toxins are absorbed into the blood.

Botulism mainly effects the neuromuscular system of the body. .

The basic symptoms of botulism is characterised by weaknes in limbs , jaws and eyes.

A decreased muscular activity sometimes causes constipation due to slowed down peristalsis.

Sometimes nausea , vomiting and diarrhea may occur.

If left untreated and in severe cases, the toxins may proceed to effect the respiratory muscle thus hindering the proper breathing and gaseous exchange.

A further damage could result in the respiratory failure.

Choose a plant tissue. Write an explanation of how that tissue’s structure relates to its function. Be specific and detailed.
LenKa [72]

There are two types of plant tissues: meristematic tissue found in plant regions of continuous cell division and growth, and permanent (or non-meristematic) tissue consisting of cells that are no longer actively dividing.Meristems produce cells that differentiate into three secondary tissue types: dermal tissue which covers and protects the plant, vascular tissue which transports water, minerals, and sugars and ground tissue which serves as a site for photosynthesis, supports vascular tissue, and stores nutrients.Vascular tissue is made of xylem tissue which transports water and nutrients from the roots to different parts of the plant and phloem tissue which transports organic compounds from the site of photosynthesis to other parts of the plant.The xylem and phloem always lie next to each other forming a structure called a vascular bundle in stems and a vascular stele or vascular cylinder in roots.Parts of the shoot system include the vegetative parts, such as the leaves and the stems, and the reproductive parts, such as the flowers and fruits.
