An outbreak occurs where the first case is detected on October 15th, the last case is detected on October 27th, and the peak is

on October 22nd. The average incubation period for the disease is 7 days with a range from 1-15 days. What is the probable period of exposure?

Answer:

12-14 october

Explanation:

The probable period of exposure is calculated as follows:

  1. Know  the range of the incubation period
  2. Start counting back from the days of the first case by subtracting the first number of incubation period range
  3. Count back the days from the last case by subtracting the last number of incubation period range.
  4. This will give a range which will be the period of exposure.

From the question,

  • Incubation period range 1-15
  • Date of first case = october 15
  • Therefore, first date of exposure = 15 -1 = 14
  • Date of last case = 22
  • Therefore, last date of exposure = 27 - 15 = 12
  • Thus, the range is 12-14 october which is the probable period of exposure.

Your friend is a pioneer in ES cell research. In her research, she uses an ES cell line that originated from an inbred strain of
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a)Organ transplantation requires that the donor organism and recipient be genetically close so that the graft or transplant will not be attacked by the immune system of the recipient leading to rejection and damage. Squeaky is likely to be made up of a different genetic configuration compared to laboratory inbred FG426 mouse

b) ips (induced pluripotent stem cell) on the other hand can benefit squeaky since the cells are somatic cells such as B cells, Keratinocytes, neuronal progenitors cells, kidney and muscles gotten from the donor that are reprogrammed by reactivating silent genes through fusing of another different cell such as ES (embryonic stem cell) and introduction of some transcriptional factors such oct4, sox2,kf4, and k-myc leading to transcriptional activity and DNA methylation.  This induced pluripotent stem cells can be grown into organ that can be transplanted to the recipient who was initially the donor of the reprogrammed somatic cells. Because it is from the host, the transplanted organ is not likely to trigger immune response compare to those grown from ES from other bred.

Explain the Three position of Meristematic tissues​
son4ous [18]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

There are three types of meristems on the basis of position, i.e

  1. Apical meristem.
  2. Lateral meristem.
  3. Intercalary meristem.
<h2>Explanation:</h2>

A meristem is the tissue present in  most plants containing undifferentiated cells, found in zones of the plant where growth can take place. Generally differentiated cells(the cells other than meristems) do not divide and produce of a different type of cells.

Meristems are classified on the basis of their location in the plant:

  1. Apical meristem - these are the meristems located at root and shoot tips of the plant.
  2. Lateral meristem - these are the meristems located in the vascular and cork cambia in plants.
  3. Intercalary meristems - these are the meristems located at internodes, or stem regions between the places at which leaves attach, and leaf bases.

Result: There are 3 types of meristems.
