Kazeer [188]

Answer:

List three protozoan infections of the circulatory system that are transmitted by arthropods:

Malaria

Toxoplasmosis

Chagas disease (American trypanosomiasis)

Explanation:

Malaria is a prozotoan infection, that can be produced by several protozoan, in the genus Plasmodium. This Plasmodium infect red blood cells and the vector that trasmites it is the Anopheles mosquitoe. In this disease, red blood cells can have severe damage in different organs because of the hemolysis.

Toxoplasmosis is a disease caused by the protozoan Toxoplasma gondii. The main vector of them are domestic cats. When cats are infected, T. gondii oocysts is found in their feces and it can spread to humans. This disease is generally asymptomatic, except when the patient has AIDS or in pregnancy, which can be very dangerous and fatal.

Chagas disease, or American trypanosomiasis is caused by protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi and is generally transmitted to people thanks to the feces of triatomine bugs. Some of the acute symptoms include fever, vomiting, headache, and in severe cases people can develop a chronic disease. In the worst cases it can produce flaccid cardiomegaly (enlargement of the heart) leading to heart failure and death.

Scilla [17]
<span>Electron microscopes therefore allow for the visualization of structures that would normally be not visible by optical microscopy. Light microscopes are not able to see things in a larger magnification compared to electron microscopes. Also you're able to see in 3d in electron microscopes and you can't see in 3dimentsional in light microscopes.

In rabbits, black fur is dominant to white fur.
Fudgin [204]

Crossing a BB male with a Bb female:

The Punnett Square will look like this:

BB BB

Bb Bb

The percentage will be as follows:

- You will have 50% homozygous dominant (BB)

- You will have 50% heterozygous (Bb)

Now, for the phenotype, you will have 100% black fur, since B is dominant and is prevalent in 100% of all the breeds.

For the genotype, you have 50% BB and 50% Bb
