Answer:

Anthrax is caused by a spore-forming bacteria and most commonly occurs in wild and domestic herbivore mammals. It's rare to find infected animals in the United States. People can become infected with anthrax by handling products from infected animals or by breathing in anthrax spores from infected animal products such as wool, hides, leather, or hair. Rare cases of inhalational, cutaneous (skin), and gastrointestinal anthrax have been connected to contaminated imported animal hide drums. Gastrointestinal anthrax can occur after eating undercooked meat from infected animals. Anthrax can also be used as a weapon. This occurred in the United States in 2001 when letters containing anthrax spores were sent through the postal system.

Anemia can be caused by a diet lacking in which nutritional substances?
wel

Answer:

The best answer to the question: Anemia can be caused by a diet lacking in which nutritional substances?, would be, D: Folic acid and vitamin B12.

Explanation:

Anemia, is usually defined as a problem in the formation of red blood cells, or, erythrocites. Usually, there are a number of nutrients, such as vitamins and minerals, that play a vital role in the formation of these erythrocites. One such mineral is iron, which is why, when it is lacking in the diet, it can cause an anemia called iron-deficiency anemia. In this case, the anemia, which is either a reduced production of red-blood cells, or, cells that are incapable of carrying out their duty as oxygen-transporters, is caused by a dietary deficiency. Another form of this can be when the body itself, through an illness, is incapable of producing these cells. However, aside from iron, there are other two nutrients that are vital in the correct formation of erythrocites, and in their being efficent transporters: folic acid, also known as folate, and vitamin B12, both necessarily supplied by the diet, as the body cannot produce them.

Ksivusya [100]

Neisseria gonorrhoeae is treated with a combination of drugs because the organism is resistant to many, including penicillin and fluoroquinolones.

Gonorrhoeae is a contender to produce an incurable illness due to the development or acquisition of resistance mechanisms for sulfonamides, penicillins, tetracyclines, ciprofloxacin, and more recently azithromycin and ceftriaxone during the past 80 years.

The Neisseria gonorrhoeae bacteria is the source of the sexually transmitted illness (STD) known as gonorrhea. The urethra in both men and women as well as the cervix, uterus, and fallopian tubes in women are all affected by N. gonorrhoeae infection.

Penicillin is the first drug that has been shown to be effective against syphilis and gonorrhea. However, compared to the dosage required to treat syphilis, which is often approximately 1,000,000 units, the drug used to treat gonorrhea is frequently administered in doses of just around 100,000 units.

Answer:

The correct answer will be option D- Sensory (afferent) neurons

Afferent neurons are the sensory neurons which transmit the impulse from the sensory receptors of the body to the central nervous system- brain or spinal cord.

The afferent neuron receives the stimulus which generates the impulse. this impulse travels down to the interneuron where the stimulus is interpreted and response is sent through efferent neuron or motor neuron to muscle  

Thus, option D- Sensory (afferent) neurons are the correct answer.
