Answer:

neurocysticercosis

Explanation:

Cysticercosis is the infection caused by the cystic form of the pig's tapeworm, Taenia solium, and neurocysticercosis is when the central nervous system (CNS) is affected. It is usually possible through direct ingestion of helminth eggs, but it can also occur in a usual infestation (teniasis). It is an endemic condition in several countries in South America, Africa and Asia, accounting for about 29% of the causes of secondary epilepsy in these locations. It can also cause headache, hydrocephalus, meningitis, and even central nervous system infarction.

Your classmate describes a growing baby as “a ball of multiplying cells that eventually grows large enough to form a baby.” Expl
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Please, see the answer below.

Explanation:

The statement is inaccurate because a growing baby is not just a ball of multiplying cells that eventually grows large enough to form a baby.

<u>After fertilization and the formation of a single-cell zygote, the zygote continues to divide to form a ball of cells. However, at some points, the cells start to differentiate to give rise to various organs that make up the baby.</u>

<em>Without differentiation, there is not way the dividing cells will give rise to baby. Hence, a growing baby should be rather viewed as a ball of multiplying cells that eventually differentiates to form a baby.</em>
