PLEASE HELP!!!!! Explain how infection might spread, how people fight off diseases, and why malnutrition can lead to the spread of disease in the time immediately following a natural disaster.

Answers

Answer:

When people are unable to access their homes due to a natural disaster, a(n)  

✔ shelter-in-place plan

advises them where to stay.

To lessen the likelihood of a wildfire spreading, a(n)  

✔ containment plan

might be enacted.

A(n)  

✔ evacuation plan

explains what people should do immediately following a disaster.

Explanation:

Infections spreading:
Infections are caused by bacteria, virus and other microscopic organisms. They spread through droplet (sneezing etc), they can spread through blood contact (used needles that are re-used), direct physical contact (skin infections), stool (germs from excretion) and contaminated objects.

How people fight off disease:
We have antibodies in us that fight off invading cells that contain foreign bodies. Our immune system secretes these antibodies and these antibodies will fight off the infection. The time it takes for the infection to be eradicated depends on the strength of your immune system and whether you have been vaccinated.

Natural disaster:
Natural disaster such a tsunami's and earthquakes can contaminate water supplies. In tsunami's the water from the sea will go into the drinking water which isn't safe because it could cause diseases such as cholera to spread. Earthquakes disrupt sewage structures. If these are broken, water regulation would not be as good so we end up drinking dirty water, which could also be contaminated with cholera!

Wow that was long, hope it helped! :)

In a balanced ecosystem, the number of deer would be:a) greater than the number of producers
b) less than the number of carnivores
c) equal to the number of scavengers
d) none of the above

Answers

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

In a balanced ecosystem, the flow of resource, food and energy must be adequate enough to fulfill the requirement of all.  

In case if the population of deer is higher than the population of producers then the producers would not be able to meet out the requirement of herbivore deer. Hence, this option is incorrect

In case if deer population is less than the population of carnivores, all the carnivores will not be able to get sufficient food. Hence, this option is also incorrect

Option C is also not feasible as equal number of scavengers will not be able to degrade the large biomass of dead animals and plants.  

Hence, option D is correct

Answer:tHE ANSWER IS d
