Answer:

Option A, pathogen A

Explanation:

ID50 is a way to measure the virulent efficiency of a pathogen. ID50 for a pathogen depicts the number of pathogens required to infect or cause the associated disease with in 50 percent of any population sample.

This means that 50 pathogens A can infect 50 percent  of any sample population.

Which describes the missing step?
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

The missing step is oxygen is removed from the water after step 3.

Explanation:

The steps listed by Xavier are:

  1. <em>Water is drawn in trough pores and enters the central cavity. </em>
  2. <em>Food is filtered and digested. </em>
  3. <em>Water leaves trough an opening at the top of the body.</em>

Porifera or sponges are aquatic, immobile invertebrates whose structure is saccular with an upper opening, the osculus.

Sponges absorb water through their pores, where the porocytes are found, and through flagellated cells -the coanocytes- the movement that allows the entrance of water to the spongocele or atrium is produced, in addition to the phagocytosis of organic elements.

Once the water is in the interior chamber of the sponges, the organic particles are phagocyted to be digested, and the oxygen is removed from the water, and passes through diffusion into the cell.  The waste products, as well as carbon dioxide, are released into the water that will be expelled through the osculus.

<u><em>In Xavier's list, the missing step is the removal of oxygen from the water, before it is expelled from the body of the sponge</em></u><em>.</em>

timama [110]

1.b. Cultural control is using the production or utilization methods of a commodity with a concern for insect management. Cultural control practices are usually multipurpose technical procedures that create environments that either avoid high-risk situations for infestations or develop unfavorable conditions for pests.

1.c.Simplicity and low cost are the primary advantages of cultural control tactics, and disadvantages are few as long as these tactics are compatible with a farmer's other management objectives (high yields, mechanization, etc.).
