There are three most common etiologies responsible for food poisoning. First is <em>Staphylococcus aureus</em>, although the bacteria itself is not responsible for food poisoning, staphylococcal toxins deposited in the food can be responsible for gastrointestinal disturbances. Second is <em>Escherichia coli</em> and this is commonly from fecal contamination of the food since <em>E. coli</em> is commonly found in the gastrointestinal tract. Lastly is <em>Salmonella typhi</em> which can cause typhoid fever and this is commonly acquired through eating contaminated foods.

Electrolyte imbalance can affect the normal function of the brain. Sodium is an important electrolyte maintains homeostasis in the body. Its primary function is to regulate water retention. Low sodium usually decreases serum osmolality. This combination of deficiencies is called Hypotonic hyponatremia.

A sudden drop in sodium and plasma osmolality can cause seizures. Brain function is affected because the water in the body, because start to flow from the extracellular spaces into the intercellular spaces. This causes the brain cells to swell and thus affecting its normal function. 

Therapy for this type is IV therapy, particularly hypertonic saline to replace the sodium in the body and normalize plasma osmolality and diuretics are given to aid in water excretion. Therapy should be done slowly and should be closely monitored. More swelling can developed when it is done too quickly.

kykrilka [37]

Answer: One H⁺ ion ie required in converting ATP and inorganic phosphate to ATP

Explanation:During oxidative phosphorylation, high energy electrons released by hydrogen carriers are shuttled through the electron transport chain. The released energy is used to translocate 3 H+ ions from the matrix, creating an proton motive force, which will cause 1 H+ ion to move down the electrochemical gradient and diffuse back into the matrix (chemiosmosis) which is facilitated by ATP synthase. As the H+ moves through the ATP synthase this triggers the molecular rotation of the enzyme, synthesizing ATP
