Answer:

The desert shrubs have fibrous roots, which help them to adapted in the draught condition.

Explanation: The desert shrubs have a fibrous root system. It is also called shallow roots. These roots spread all over the soil and occupy more surface area under the soil. These shallow roots help the plants to absorb more water from the soil, when and where it is available. This helps the desert shrubs to survive in drought conditions.

What is a communicable disease chain? what steps can a nurse can take to break a link within the communicable disease chain?

Kaylis [27]

<span>A diseases may be classified as either communicable or non-communicable. Communicable diseases are caused by pathogens who inhabit a host, man (I'm not saying man is the only host or man is necessarily the final host; there could be many host) who in turn passes the disease to another. Pathogens are viral, bacterial, parasitic and fungal. There are several stages before the pathogen metamorphoses into a full-blown disease. The stages in which several events happen builds up before the pathogen affects the final host is called a communicable disease chain. There are six stages ( Pathogen, reservoir, portal of ext, mode of transmission, portal of entry and susceptible host) in the communicable disease chain but the step a nurse shouod take is 1. Destroy the second link (Reservoir) by thoroughly sanitizing the environment. Obviously, this is where the Pathogens live. If the reservoir is taken care of; there's no way they could infect the host.</span>

Explanation: Prokaryotic cells also synthesis ATP the limitations is that enzymes required for the synthesis of ATP are attached to the cell membrane which surrounds the cell. ATP synthesis complex of prokaryotic cells are embedded in the cell membrane. Prokaryotes lack mitochondrial/thylakoid membrane so therefore, ATP is produced on their cell surface membrane.
