Describe how Edward Jenner created a smallpox vaccine.

Answers

The Variola vaccine (which was also the first vaccine made in the world) came from studies carried out by the English physician Edward Jenner. He observed people who became infected by milking cows with a disease of cattle and came to the conclusion that these people were immune to smallpox. The disease, called cowpox, resembled human smallpox by the formation of pustules (lesions with pus).

In view of this observation, in 1796, Jenner inoculated the pus present in a lesion of a milker named Sarah Nelmes, who had the disease (cowpox), in an eight-year-old boy named James Phipps. Phipps acquired the infection mildly and, after ten days, was cured. Later, Jenner inoculated Phipps pus from a person with chickenpox, and the boy suffered nothing. There, the smallpox vaccine was born.

The doctor continued his experiment, repeating the process in more people. In 1798, he reported his discovery in a paper entitled "An Survey on the Causes and Effects of Smallpox Vaccine". Despite facing resistance, in a short time, his discovery was recognized and spread throughout the world. In 1799, the first vaccine institute was created in London and, in 1800, the British Navy began to adopt vaccination.

Answer:

the person above is right!

Explanation:

Why does sexual reproduction result in more genetic diversity than asexual reproduction? A.Traits from two parents are combined.

B.More organisms reproduce this way.

C.Offspring grow in different environments.

D. Offspring come from identical parents.

Answers

Answer:

A. Traits from two parents are combined

Explanation:

Each time you have a sexual reproduction the offspring get a mixture of both the parents genes, making the offspring's genes unique. However since the asexual reproduction would produce an offspring with an identical genes to one parent, the genes are the same.

In other word the asexual reproduction does not have any diversity, and the sexual reproduction does because it is a mixture of two parents genes.
Answer: A

By diversifying offspring you enhance the ability to pass on desirable traits.

jenny measures the outside temperature as 16 degrees celcius,61 degrees Fahrenheit. she observes precipitation falling from the clouds in a solid form.what type of precipitation is jenny most likely observing. A)hail B)rain C)sleet D)snow

Answers

Jenny is most likely seeing sleet dued to the fact it must be 32 degrees Fahrenheit to freeze and turn into a solid snow/ ice.
Rain. Since it is 16 degrees C it is almost 100% sure to be rain. Too warm for sleet, which is possible around, you can guess, 0 C or 32 F (sleet can be formed when surface T is around 5 C, this may variate.
