It allows different kinds of organisms to be easily identified based on their characteristics.
Answer:
This question is incomplete as it lacks options, however, it can be answered. The answer is:
CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2)
Explanation:
Cellular respiration is the process by which glucose is broken down in an organism's cell to release energy. Although the process involves series of reactions, however, the general equation is as follows;
C6H12O6 + 6O2 ➡ 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy
Based on the above equation, the inputs are glucose and oxygen while the outputs are carbon dioxide and water. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the major byproduct of the respiration process.
C. adaptation is a direct result of natural selection
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.
