Here we will discuss Damage to infrastructure in the 2010 Haiti earthquake.

Toussaint Louverture International Airport:

If we talk about the focus point of the Haiti earthquake that hit the Haiti on 12th january, 2010, then it was around 6 miles away from Toussaint Louverture International Airport.

Since the center was so near to airport that is why airport suffered from alot of damage. The control tower of the airport was almost completely destroyed due to which any radio communication became impossible. There was heavy power outrage due to damage caused to the power lines and due to this lightening system of the airport was completely shutdown. was damaged. However, the taxiways, runways and apron parts of the airport were operational at even that time of crisis.

Due to immense amount of damaged caused to Toussaint Louverture International Airport, all the relief bringing planes were diverted to other airports of the city.

The reconstruction and rehabilitation of the airport was started during 2010. It included the restoration and renovation of arrival and departure halls that were previously completely devastated. The renovation os falls included installation 16 new stations and three large baggage carousels and in the immigration room, There was also a significant explansion in the custom rooms.

However, the damage caused to Toussaint Louverture International Airport dur to 2010 Haiti earthquake is still considered as the destruction of major landmark due to earthquake.

Hope it helps!

Isolation can be due to behavioral, geographical, or temporal barriers. <span>Speciation can take place in two general ways. A single species may change over time into a new form that is different enough to be considered a new species. This process is known as anagenesis. More commonly, a species may become split into two groups that no longer share the same gene pool. This process is known as cladogenesis. There are several ways in which anagenesis and cladogenesis may take place. In all cases, reproductive isolation occurs. Hope this helps! </span>

If you block histone deacetylase, what effect would you expect to see on transcriptional activity?.

Shalnov [3]

Histone deacetylase is responsible for removing the acetyl group from the histone 3 lysine 9 residue. Remember that deacetylation is one step in converting euchromatin to heterochromatin. Because euchromatin is transcriptionally active (transcriptional machinery is able to reach gene of interest), and blocking histone deacetylase activity would result in an the DNA remaining as euchromatin, we would expect to see an increase in transcriptional activity.

So there’s your answer: An increase in transcriptional activity.

What could potentially happen if an intramuscular vaccine is administered too high?

sweet [91]

An intramuscular injection is a technique delivering a medication that is deep into the muscles. If intramuscular is administered too high then the efficacy of the vaccine might be reduced as it is not injected in the right site. It might also cause to injure blood vessels so it should be injected in the correct site and depth.
