The following health statistics are available on the Internet for country Z about two disease outcomes. Disease A has an annual

incidence of 225 per 100,000 population and an annual mortality rate of 150 per 100,000. Disease B
has an annual incidence of 500 per 100,000 population and the same annual mortality rate as disease A. Neither disease A or B has a cure. What would you conclude regarding the burden of these diseases in country Z?

a. The proportionate mortality is higher for
disease A than disease B
b. The case fatality ratio is higher for disease B
than disease A
c. Disease A has a higher prevalence than
disease B
d. Disease B has a higher prevalence than
disease A
e. Years of potential life lost (YPLL) is greater
for disease B than disease A

The burden of diseases A and B in country Z is that disease B has a higher prevalence than

disease A. That is option D.

<h3>Health statistics of Country Z</h3>

Health statistics is used by professionals to summarize the health status or information on the health of individuals in a particular geographical location.

The basic statistic tools that can be used to check the health status of a population are,

  • prevalence

  • Case fatality ratio

The prevalence rate is the total number of cases of a disease existing in a population divided by the total population.

The prevalence rate of disease A = 225 per 100,000 population while the prevalence rate of disease B = 500 per 100,000 population.

Therefore, the burden of diseases A and B in country Z is that Disease B has a higher prevalence than

disease A.

Lactic acid fermentation occurs in
Trava [24]
Lactic acid fermentation is a biological process by which glucose, fructose, and sucrose are converted into cellular energy and the metabolite lactate. It is an anaerobic fermentation reaction that occurs in some bacteria and animal cells, such as muscle cells. If oxygen is present in the cell, many organisms will bypass fermentation and undergo cellular respiration; however, facultative anaerobic organisms will both ferment and undergo respiration in the presence of oxygen.Lactate dehydrogenase catalyzes the interconversion of pyruvate and lactate with concomitant interconversion of NADH and NAD+. 

<span>In homolactic fermentation, one molecule of glucose is ultimately converted to two molecules of lactic acid. Heterolactic fermentation, in contrast, yields carbon dioxide and ethanol in addition to lactic acid, in a process called the phosphoketolase pathway. </span>

Which statement best applies collision theory to preventing a dangerous reaction from occurring?
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer;

Keep the reactants in separate containers.

Explanation;

-According to the collision theory of reactivity, reactions occur when reactant molecules effectively collide. For an “effective collision” to occur, the reactant molecules must be oriented in space correctly to facilitate the breaking and forming of bonds and the rearrangement of atoms that result in the formation of product molecules.
