Blood borne transmitted diseases can be easily traced back to its sources as they need a physical medium to transfer which we can measure, calculate, contain and treat while air borne transmitted diseases lack this feature. The microorganism do not need a physical medium to transfer from one host to another making it difficult to contain the virus.

The reason for this is that we can trace bloodbourne diseases back to a direct source, we an collect samples, and identify an approximate, if not exact, number of people infected. The problem with airbourne disease is that air doesn't stop moving. We can't measure the exact number of people who inhaled the specific portion of infected air, who then breathe it in another location, and may transmit more of the pathogens in that area.

Put simply, bloodbourne pathogens are more confined, spread less quickly, and are easier to track than airbourne ones.

To be safe from bullying, you first need to have a good background, that means you can’t be known as the kid who nobody likes, and you also need to defend yourself or ignore them, as that is what makes them stop. You can also get people you trust to defend you, friends, family, etc. if your getting bullied the best possible way to stop it, is ether put your foot down, or tell a adult. Some adults will not help you, however, usually not giving them a reaction will get them to stop, but if the EVER put their hands on you, by all means, put them where they belong. If you get what I’m saying.

<span>The answer is letter A. <span>

<span>Pregnant women are discouraged to smoke while pregnant. This can cause miscarriage because of the toxic chemicals that cigarettes bring and are readily absorbed by the fetus when a mother smokes. Not only will it lead to a possible miscarriage, if the baby does survive, he/she might end up with physical abnormalities or mental disorders. This is the reason why mothers should be very careful about the choices they make during pregnancy because the life of a younger being is also at stake.</span></span></span>
