Answer:

As the body tries to fight the infection, the immune system causes inflammation to make it hard for the virus to copy itself. The process of fighting the infection causes most of the symptoms people have. As the virus makes its way down to the lungs it can cause the lungs to become inflamed. This can lead to pneumonia.

Shifting biomes could have consequences for the regions in which the shifts occur. Read the two cases below and decide which con
Nata [24]

Answer:

increased risk of wildfires- both

local economy suffers- Case 1

carbon storage decreases - Case 2

agricultural production decreases - Case 1

carbon storage increases -  Case 1

disease vector range changes - Case 2

decreased water availability - Case 1

local economy thrives - Case 2

species range changes - Case 2

Explanation:

Fires are common to  taiga biomes. Owing to the fact that the biome in case 1 changed from an agricultural community to a grassland and subsequently to a desert, agricultural productivity will decrease, the local economy will suffer, water availability is decreased and local economy suffers as a consequence of desertification.

On the other hand, in case 2, the diseases vector range as well as species range changes due to the change in the species of foxes from Artic foxes to red foxes that carry rabies. Carbon storage decreases as the taiga biome acts as a carbon sink. The local economy thrives due to timber production.

Lastly, species range changes both in case 1 and case 2 since there is a loss of species. Species range is the area where a particular species can be found during its lifetime. Certainly, the range of area where species are found changed in cases 1 and 2.

The best way to approach this type of problem is to use the "complement method" ...  

P(positive result) = 1 - P(negative result)  

= 1 - (1 - 0.03)^3  

= 1 - 0.97^3 = 0.087327 or 8.7%
