Answer:
The correct answer is: Clostridium Tetani.
Explanation:
Clostridium tetani is a Gram-positive bacteria found in soil.
<u>C. tetani may grow and generate </u><u>tetanospasmin</u><u>, a powerful toxin that interferes with </u><u>motor neurons</u><u>, producing </u><u>tetanus</u><u>, if introduced into a </u><u>wound</u>.
Tetanospasmin travels throughout the body via the lymphatic and bloodstream, where it is taken up by different sections of the nervous system. Tetanospasmin inhibits the release of the inhibitory neurotransmitters glycine and gamma-aminobutyric acid at motor nerve terminals in the nervous system. <u>This blockage causes </u><u>extensive motor neuron activation and muscular spasming</u>. These muscle spasms usually start at the top of the body and work their way down, starting about 8 days after infection with lockjaw and progressing to spasms of the stomach muscles and extremities. The muscle spasms last several weeks.
Tetanus toxoid vaccinations, which are often given to children around the world, can inhibit the toxin's activity.
Answer:
A: light availability
B: nutrients
Explanation:
Both nutrients and light availability affect the primary productivity of the freshwater ecosystem, therefore, scientists study both factors to track associated changes. This is because photosynthesis is driven by sunlight and nutrients availability. It is suggested that the abundance of autotrophs (e.g. phytoplanktons) in an aquatic ecosystem increases as light and nutrients availability increase. Thus, there will be more food available for secondary and tertiary consumers to feed upon. Resultantly, the aquatic environment will turn a biodiversity hotspot where many species of living organisms start dwelling. Thus, scientists mainly ecologists would focus on these two parameters at first that lead to consideration of other parameters.

Answer:
irreversible chemical change
Explanation:
A chemical change always results in a new substance and as it is not possible to reverse it, it is an irreversible chemical change.
