This disease is classified as a latent disease.
<h3>Classification of diseases</h3>
Latent disease is a classification of disease whereby the infectious agent remains inert in the body of its host between episodes of recurrent diseases.
Examples of viral pathogens that causes latent diseases include:
- <em>Herpes simplex, </em>
- <em>Varicella zoster, </em>
- <em>Human cytomegalovirus, </em>
- Adenovirus, and Kaposi's sarcoma.
The infection caused by the listed viral pathogens exhibit a latent disease phase whereby there is no noticeable symptoms of infection.

Answer:
Biodiversity
Explanation:
Biodiversity or also called biological diversity is the variation among life on Earth. It encompasses all life form on Earth including plants, animal, microbes etc.
According to the question, bodiversity is the ultimate source of renewable energy on Earth. It is renewable because life has the ability to reproduce, and the greater the reproduction, the higher the probability tibd
Answer:
All the given statements are correct except b.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) refers to the ability of a microorganism to grow in the presence of drug or a chemical that would normally limit its growth or kill it.
It makes it difficult for the existing drugs to eliminate the infection as they become less effective against the microbe.
There are five major mechanisms by which a microbe attains resistance against antimicrobial chemical or drug:
- Drug modification or inactivation: A microbial enzyme inactivates the antimicrobial agent. For example, few bacteria produce β-lactamases which provide multi-resistance against β-lactam antibiotics such as penicillin, cephalosporin etc.
- Alteration or modification of target site: An altered target site prevents the antimicrobial agent from binding to its target. For example, alteration of penicillin binding protein (PBP) in Methicillin-resistant <em>Staphylococcus aureus </em>(MRSA).
- Alteration of metabolic pathway: The microbe uses an alternative pathway to circumvent the blocked pathway. For example, sulfonamides-resistant bacteria started using preformed folic acid in place of para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA).
- Decreased drug accumulation: Microbial efflux pumps remove the antimicrobial agent (before it could do any damage) by pumping it out of the cell.
- Decrease in cell permeability: The permeability of the microbial envelope to the antimicrobial agent is decreased
