TAQ1 Definition of Pathogen and research into the main features of bacteria‚ protozoa‚ fungi and viruses. Pathogens‚ or infectious agents‚ are microorganisms that cause disease or illness to their host. There are divided into four groups; bacteria‚ protozoa‚ fungi and viruses. The term pathogen most often describes an organism that disrupts the normal physiology of a plant or animal. In identifying a pathogen it is important to determine the properties that ‘contribute to its infectious

ABSTRACT: The principle Aim of the theory is to assess the potential Antimicrobial and Anti-Tubercular exercises of the plant Acacia farnesiana (L.) Objectives incorporate elution and recognizable proof of different new mixes present in the plant concentrate. Tuberculosis is one of the world’s significant life debilitating infections‚ and worldwide populace is getting opposed with this illness. There are numerous going with variables of creating resistance. It is the situation where new medication

1. Name and describe the life cycle of plants. The plant life cycle is consisted of two parts: the gametophyte phase where it produces gametes by mitosis and the sporophyte phase which produces spores by meiosis 2. Contrast the life cycle of plants to that of animals: Typical life cycle: alteration of generation (plants)‚ diploid (animals) Resulting structure from meiosis: spores-plants‚ gametes-animals Occurrence of mitosis: gamete production-plants‚ zygote to individual-animals 3.

INFECTION CONTROL Pathogen- Infectious agent Colonization- If microorganism is present or invades host‚ grows and/or multiplies but does not cause infection. Communicable disease- if infectious disease can be transmitted from one person to another. -Symptomatic-if pathogens multiply and cause clinical signs/symptoms. -Asymptomatic- if no s/s are present *CHAIN OF INFECTION: 1. An infectious agent or pathogen 2. A reservoir or source for pathogen growth 3. A portal of exit from the

Elliot Griffin Environmental Science Final Opinion Paper Should DDT Be Banned Worldwide? First synthesized in 1874‚ DDT’s insecticidal properties were not discovered until 1939. In the second half of World War II‚ it was used with great effect among both military and civilian populations to control mosquitoes spreading malaria and lice transmitting typhus‚ resulting in dramatic reductions in the incidence of both diseases.

Beta Thalassemia Beta thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder characterized by the abnormal production of a blood protein called hemoglobin. This condition is caused by a mutation within the gene that is responsible for the healthy production of hemoglobin. In healthy people‚ hemoglobin carries oxygen to tissues and cells throughout the body. Patients with beta thalassemia do not have adequate levels of oxygen within the blood‚ which can cause anemia. There are two main types of beta thalassemia

1. BIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION Aristotle’s classification - Aristotle was the earliest to attempt a more scientific basis for classification of organisms. - He classified plants into trees‚ shrubs & herbs and animals into two groups‚ those which had red blood and those that did not. Two-kingdom classification - In Linnaeus’ time Two Kingdom classification (Kingdom Plantae & Kingdom Animalia) was developed. Drawbacks of 2-kingdom classification Prokaryotes (Bacteria‚ cyanobacteria) and eukaryotes
