Answer:

Tetanospasmin toxin; Pulmonary embolism

Explanation:

Clostridium tetani produce a toxin called tetanospasmin. Tetanospasmin is the strong neurotoxin that blocks the motor neurons that control the muscles. Which results in stiffness of muscles.

Tetanus toxin ca cause blockage of lung artery (pulmonary embolism) and thus can cause death by:

  • Stopping your breathing
  • Pneumonia
  • Cardiac arrest

Yeast cells are typically observed under 40x objective. the total magnification of the specimen is?
gregori [183]

The overall magnification of a microscope is calculated by multiplying the objective lens's magnification by the optical lens' magnification.

However, you must first ascertain the optical lens's magnification power before computing the total magnification.  The ocular lens typically magnifies 10 times.

Find out how much the objective lens can magnify. On the side of the lens is printed the magnification. The value may formerly be 4X, 10X, 40X, or 100X.

Multiplying the ocular lens' magnification power with the objective lens' power yields the compound light microscope's overall magnification. For instance, a 400X total magnification would be achieved with a 10X ocular and a 40X objective. The compound light microscope has a maximum total magnification of 1000X.

If you have normal vision, your eyes are not covered, and you are in a well-lit area, then opening your eyes is a necessary and
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

When your eyes are not covered and you are in an area with good lighting, then opening your eyes would certainly be a necessary thing to do to be able to see and this makes your vision to be normal.

According to Leo Gross, you can have a normal vision if you are 20 feet away from a particular spot and you see what a normal person sees on that same spot. There is the Snellen chart one is also expected to read in that position, so maintaining a normal vision means someone has 20/20 vision.

What is the name of the process by which the cytoplasm divides in two?
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Cytokinesis

Explanation:

All living cells undergo division, it is the method employed in duplicating themselves. The division of cells involves two major processes viz; karyokinesis and cytokinesis.

Karyokinensis involves the division of the genetic material (DNA) in the nucleus. The chromosomes are initially separated into opposite poles/ends inside the cell. After which the cytoplasm of the whole cell then separates resulting in two daughter cells each having its own genetic material. This process is called CYTOKINESIS.

Although CYTOKINESIS occurs in all eukarotes and prokaryotes, the way it occurs in the eukaryotic plant and animal cells differ in the sense that, in animals, it occurs with the formation of a cleavage furrow as a result of pinching inward of the cell membrane until the two daughter cells form while in plants, a cell plate is formed at the cell's centre and a new membrabe and cell wall is formed around each cell plate.

If Johns used cars has 612 cars and 49 trucks , what percentage of the vehicles on Johns lot are trucks ?
oksian1 [2.3K]

The answer is 7.4%.

  • Number of trucks ÷ Total number of cars
  • 49 ÷ (49 + 612)
  • 49 ÷ 661
  • 7.4%
