A population of 1,000 healthy, at risk people is monitored for one year starting on January 1st, and the development of cases of

chicken pox is noted. No one has chicken pox at the start of the investigation. Twenty people develop chicken pox on June 30th and forty people develop chicken pox on September 30th. Twenty-four people were lost to follow-up on March 31st, and twenty-four people were lost to follow-up on November 30th. None of those lost to follow-up had developed chicken pox prior to becoming lost. Assume that you can get chicken pox only once.
Required:
What is the cumulative incidence of chicken pox in this population during the one-year period from January 1st through December 31st?

Answer:

\mathbf{cummulative \ incidence = \dfrac{60}{1000}}

Explanation:

We recognize that total occurrence equals new cases of disease over time divided by the number of people at risk at the onset.

Mathematically:

\mathbf{cummulative \ incidence = \dfrac{New \ cases \ of \ disease \ occurrence}{Number  \ of \ population \ at \ risk \ at \ onset}}

Given that:

Number of the population at risk = 1000 individuals

New cases during Jan 1 - Dec 31 = 60 because;

At 20 occurred on June 30 & 40 on Sept. 30) & no new cases were identified after that:

∴

\mathbf{cummulative \ incidence = \dfrac{60}{1000}}

The end result of metabolism is a cellular energy unit called
stepladder [879]


The best answer is ATP (Adenosine triphosphate).

Metabolism is a term referring to the overall processes by which  energy is obtained by an organism. In man it begins with the digestion process, and ends with cellular respiration.

Food molecules are broken down into their monomer units through the digestive process. Carbohydrates are broken into glucose units. Glucose is taken in by cells and used in cellular respiration to produce ATP, which is the form of energy that cells use.

Cellular respiration involves three stages namely glycolysis , Krebs cycle and electron transport chain.  From one molecule of glucose, the number of ATP molecules generated through cellular respiration  is 36 to 38 molecules.
