8 0

Answer: ( QUESTION A:) Measles is a childhood infection caused by a virus. Once quite common, measles can now almost always be prevented with a vaccine.

Also called rubeola, measles can be serious and even fatal for small children. While death rates have been falling worldwide as more children receive the measles vaccine, the disease still kills more than 100,000 people a year, most under the age of 5.

(QUESTION B:) Measles attacks your body, it goes to war against your white blood cells. Specifically, it binds to your B- and T-cells, then wipes them out. Earlier symptoms come with a high fever, a cough, a runny nose, and itchy, watery eyes. One of the most recognizable effects of measles on the body is the characteristic rash.

Harry, the swimmer with the fastest time on the Springfield College swim team, routinely hyperventilates before a meet, as he sa

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question, Harry seem to have forgotten that It's the CO2 (carbondioxide) level not the O2 (oxygen)level that gives rise to the urge to breathe. That is to say that once the CO2 level in the blood is high, the brain will trigger a breathing response, that will cause the person(Harry) to try to gasp for air. Also, Harry is jeopardizing his time and life because Hyperventilation itself reduces the CO2 concentration of the blood to below normal level, this makes the bloods pH value to raise, this in turn causes the constriction of the blood vessels that supply the brain, and prevents the transportation of certain electrolytes necessary for the function of the nervous system.

Okay so im wondering this, i have a love and i dislike him alot.

Arlecino [84]

Answer to 1: the way you can tell of a guy likes you is by the way he looks at you. Keep this in mind it’s the little things he does for you . When he sees you his face lights up . You have his full attention no one else matters in the picture but you !

Answer 2: how to break up with guy ? There’s no easy answer but to be honest. I know that sounds basic but that’s the best thing. You don’t have to tell him your in love with someone else you can always say you lost interest. It’s not gonna be easy but try to put in the best manner . When you break up with him I recommend in person because over txt is sometimes not the best. (Whatever you feel comfortable with though!) I hope all goes well ! :)

Which of the following is a common myth associated with fitness?

Alja [10]

i beleive the answer is: d. Working out in the morning is more effective than working out at night.

The main reason for the myth is the fact that we burn more calories early in the morning(before we consume any breakfast).

Even though this might be true, What dispelled this perception is the fact that our body typically burn would burn more calories during sleep when we work out at night. So the the overall calorie burned will pretty much the same.
