Commercial logging destroyed 45 percent of old-growth forests.
Logging, or commercial logging, involves cutting trees for sale as timber or pulp. The timber is used to build homes, furniture, etc. and the pulp is used to make paper and paper products. Logging is generally categorized into three categories: selective, clear-cutting and strip logging.
- Selective logging is selective because loggers choose only wood that is highly valued, such as mahogany.
- Clear-cutting is not selective. Loggers are interested in all types of wood and therefore cut all of the trees down, thus clearing the forest, hence the name- clear-cutting.
- Strip logging involves the clear-cutting of a relatively thin strip of forest that parallels a river (goes along the river) along a slope. A gallery forest (bordering the river) is left intact, but a strip is cut immediately upslope and the desirable timber is removed by a road that is also designed to parallel the river. Following this, another strip is cut several years later immediately upslope to the first strip and the road.

Stress is typically associated with elevated levels of epinephrine and cortisol; some physiologists now define stress as any situation that raises cortisol levels.
<h3>What are glucocorticoids?</h3>
Glucocorticoids are part of the innate immune system's feedback loop, which diminishes certain facets of immune function, such as inflammation.
As a result, in medicine, they are used to treat diseases caused by an overactive immune system, such as allergies, asthma, autoimmune diseases, and sepsis.
Stress is typically associated with elevated epinephrine and cortisol levels; however, some physiologists now describes stress as any situation that raises cortisol levels.
Thus, the answer is cortisol and epinephrine.

Answer: The body is a system filled with smaller systems. Each used to help out the other and benefit the body as a whole. For example, the respiratory system takes in oxygen, the heart then takes the oxygen in the blood and pumps it throughout the entire body. Then veins carry that blood to muscles and organs. Each unique system has a job to do, when one malfunctions the whole system can fail.
Explanation: Hope this helps :)
The correct answer is D. Without capsids, viruses could not replicate
Explanation:
A viral infection is caused as a virus enters the body and this replicates inside it by using the host's cells. This is possible through the capsid which is an external layer in the virus that provides protection to it and helps the virus replicate because the capsid is essential for the virus to attach and penetrate the host's cells to replicate. According to this, if a drug damages the capsids the virus could not replicate and this should or reduce the infection caused by the virus. Thus, a drug that damages capsids helps treat a viral infection because "without capsids, viruses could not replicate".
Infectious diseases.Infectious disease in the nervous system can have very serious effects on the body's functioning and movement. Especially when this goes on for many months. Two types are bacterial and viral infection.Thank you for your question. Please don't hesitate to ask in Brainly your queries.
