Answer:

<em><u>Mode of transmission       Method of blocking</u></em>

Indirect Contact -----------→  washing food (A)

Direct Contact -------------→   getting vaccinated (B)

Animal Vector --------------→  using insect repellent (C)

Explanation:

Transmissible infectious diseases are those caused by pathogenic biological agents and can be prevented by preventive measures.

Three forms of contagion are direct contact, indirect contact and vector transmission.

  • <em><u>Direct contact</u></em><em>: occurs with direct exposure to a sick person, their breathing or their secretions. </em>
  • <em><u>Indirect contact</u></em><em>: a sick person contaminates an object or food, which is then handled or consumed by another person, acquiring the disease. </em>
  • <em><u>Vector transmission</u></em><em>: Some insects, such as mosquitoes, carry diseases that can be transmitted through their bite to a healthy person. </em>

Transmission by direct contact can be prevented or blocked by immunization or vaccination. Properly washing food prevents the spread of disease through indirect contact. The use of insect repellent prevents the vector of a disease from spreading it through its bite.

By which process do plants obtain carbon from the atmosphere
Sliva [168]

Answer: A) Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis:<em> </em><em><u>The process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water</u></em><em>. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a byproduct.</em>

Cellular Respiration:<em> </em><u><em>Is a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate</em></u><em> (ATP), and then release waste products.</em>

Decomposition:<em> Is the process by which organic substances are</em><u><em> broken down into simpler organic matter</em></u><em>. The process is a part of the nutrient cycle and is essential for recycling the finite matter that occupies physical space in the biosphere. Bodies of living organisms begin to decompose shortly after death.</em>

Burning Fossil Fuels:<em> </em><u><em>is a fuel formed by natural processes,</em></u><em> such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms, containing energy originating in ancient photosynthesis. Such organisms and their resulting fossil fuels typically have an age of millions of years, and sometimes more than 650 million years.</em>

(<em>Extra</em>)>Carbon moves from the atmosphere to plants. In the atmosphere, carbon is attached to oxygen in a gas called carbon dioxide (CO2). Through the process of <em>photosynthesis</em>, carbon dioxide is pulled from the air to produce food made from carbon for plant growth. Carbon moves from plants to animals.
