Answer:

1. Disease:The improper functioning of the body brought about by hereditary, infection, diet, or the environment

2. Non-infectious disease: Cannot be spread through contact or any mechanism of transmission 

3. Infectious disease: Caused by the spread of harmful microorganisms 

4. Viral infection: Caused by the multiplication of a small infectious agent which invades a host cell and then destroys it

5. Bacterial infection: Caused by the reproduction of a small infectious agent which produces poisons that destroy cells

6. Fungal infection: Caused by the the multiplication of fungal organisms on or in the body 

7. Protozoan: caused by microscopic parasites bacterial infection

Explanation:

Disease is the lack or disturbance of health. It is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being. The disease can be viewed as an external factor to the body's normal balance, the result of a healthy defense reaction or even adaptation of the individual to new and different conditions.

An infectious disease is any disease caused by the growth of pathogens in the body and may be transmissible. They can be contracted in many ways. Direct contact between humans spreads some infectious diseases. Animals, like mosquitos, spread through air, water or food., etc. The non infectious disease cannot be spread through contact or any mechanism of transmission.

 Virus are acellular beings that need to parasitize cells in order to reproduce, so they are called obligate intracellular parasites. Because they are not able to perform metabolic activities outside a cell, many researchers do not consider these beings to be alive. Others, however, claim that they are a parasitic and extremely simple life form.  When a virus parasitizes a cell, it can cause its death or even its division excessively, leading to the appearance of tumors.

 Protozoan are unicellular, eukaryotic organisms with heterotrophic nutrition. Most protozoan are free-living and found in different aquatic and humid environments. There are, however, species that live in association with other organisms, such as parasites.

Fungi are generally recognized primarily for their ability to break down organic matter. In addition to this function, some species are capable of causing infections in plants, animals and humans.  

 Bacteria are organisms formed by a single cell (unicellular), characterized by the absence of a defined nucleus (prokaryotes). The cellular organization of these beings is quite simple, with no membranous organelles being observed. Bacteria can be found alone or forming colonies.  Generally, bacteria cause disease by producing toxins, which can be endotoxins or exotoxins.

A friend of yours is considering taking up vaping and says that it is totally safe, because she plans on getting the nicotine-fr
hammer [34]

Answer:

Vaping impacts the developing brain.

Kids’ developing brains are more susceptible to addiction and e-cigarettes essentially provide a smoke-free way to inhale nicotine, which is more addictive than heroin, cocaine or alcohol. Some brands of e-cigarettes contain a dangerously high level of nicotine – more than twice what is found in traditional cigarettes and other e-cigarettes. Nicotine mixed with a developing brain can lead to addiction, reduced impulse control and mood disorders. Nicotine also negatively impacts the prefrontal cortex, the area of the brain responsible for attention, decision-making, judgement and planning.

Nicotine is equally dangerous for adults and has a negative impact on heart health.

Nicotine can:

Increase blood pressure and heart rate

Narrow arteries

Lead to heart attack by contributing to the constricting of the arterial wall

Many vape pens are also used to inhale THC, the main psychoactive ingredient in marijuana. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) suspects that exposure to THC, as well as a mix of THC, nicotine and vitamin E, an additive in many vape carriages, is causing serious lung injury.

Vaping has been linked to lung injury.

As of September 2019, 530 cases of lung injury and seven deaths due to vaping have been reported in the U.S. Symptoms of vaping-related lung injury include:

Rapid onset of coughing

Breathing difficulties

Weight loss

Nausea and vomiting

Diarrhea

Physicians have attributed these symptoms to a buildup of oil and/or white blood cells in the lungs. THC and CBD, another active ingredient in cannabis, are heated up as oil in vape pens before being converted to vapor to smoke.

If your child exhibits any of these symptoms and uses a vape pen, bring them to the emergency department with the pen and the cartridge they used immediately.

Vaping misconceptions cloud its danger.

It is a marketer’s dream, and a parent’s nightmare.

Kids have a misconception that vaping is harmless.

The pods come in a variety of kid-friendly flavors that are more attractive than the taste of tobacco.

E-cigarettes are small and easy to hide. The JUUL looks like a flash drive and can be easily concealed in a pocket or hand.

Vaping is easier to do indoors, such as in bedrooms, school bathrooms and even classrooms, without detection.

Vaping has become quite common, and kids are exposed to classmates and images of famous people vaping, making it “cool.” Peer pressure drives kids to try it, and then they become easily addicted.
