Microbes that cause illness are also known as pathogens. The most common pathogens are various bacteria and viruses, though a number of other microorganisms, including some kinds of fungi and protozoa, also cause disease. An infectious disease is termed contagious if it is easily transmitted from one person to another.n immune response against a pathogen, which can include a high fever, inflammation, and other damaging symptoms, can be more devastating than the direct damage caused by the microbe. Infectious disease requires an agent and a mode of transmission (or vector).

An infectious disease is one that can be spread from person to  person (or animal to animal). Where a medical condition is caused  by a virus, bacteria, or parasite, their r â¦ eproduction poses a  threat to those in contact with the sufferer, or in the same  surroundings.iseases such as cancer and heart disease not infectious because you cannot contract them through personal contact like you can a virus or bacteria.


Infectious Disease & Non-Infectious Disease
While infectious disease still remains a major problem in many countries, chronic diseases, including such noncommunicable conditions as cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes and respiratory disease, are now the major cause of death and disability, not only in developed countries, but also worldwide.he emergence or re-emergence of other infectious diseases such as pandemic influenza could possibly exact a higher toll, both human and economic. Other infectious diseases requiring national and international attention include dengue fever, measles, yellow fever, and Ebola virus.

Chapter 10 - Infectious Diseases 217 Chapter 10 - Lesson 1 Causes of Infectious Diseases Introduction Infectious diseases are caused by exposure to living organisms not normally present in the animal.iruses often infect specific types of cells causing damage to the tissues or organs that those cells make up. Similar to bacte-rial disease, viruses can be found in the bloodstream, which is called viremia. Viruses are causative agents of many types of animal diseases.

Sensory receptors
In a sensory system, a sensory receptor is a sensory nerve ending that responds to a stimulus in the internal or external environment of an organism.In response to stimuli, the sensory receptor initiates sensory transduction by creating graded potentials or action potentials in the same cell or in an adjacent one.ensory receptors respond to specific stimulus modalities. The stimulus modality to which a sensory receptor responds is determined by the sensory receptor's adequate stimulus.


Sensory receptors
The sensory receptors involved in taste and smell contain receptor molecules that bind to specific chemicals. Odor receptors in olfactory receptor neurons, for example, are activated by interacting with molecular structures on the odor molecule.ensory receptors respond to specific stimulus modalities. The stimulus modality to which a sensory receptor responds is determined by the sensory receptor's adequate stimulus.

The nerve fibers that innervate skin receptors have their cell bodies in the dorsal root ganglion, a group of neuron cell bodies near the spinal cord. The axons of dorsal root ganglion cells project in to the spinal cord, where they synapse with neurons in the dorsal horn of the grey matter.he nerve ending is the end of a myelinated process (the primary afferent fiber) that extends between the receptor and the cell body in the dorsal root ganglion. Another myelinated process (the central branch) extends from the cell body in the ganglion to terminate in the spinal cord.

Your Digestive System. Learn what you need to know about your gastrointestinal system and your digestive tract. No matter how good you look in a belly shirt, your innards are hardly a pretty sight. Your gastrointestinal (GI) tract deals with the dirty work of your body: digesting food for nutrients and sending out the trash.


Digestion of Steak vs. Ground Beef
Normal Digestive Process. Digestion starts in the mouth when you chew the ground meat or steak into smaller pieces. Due to the grinding, ground meat may be quicker to chew and swallow than the steak. From there, the meat enters the stomach, where the acid begins to break down the protein. Because ground beef has more surface area, the acid is able to work more effectively to break down the protein.


Your Digestive System
Beans also create a mighty stink because we lack the enzymes to fully digest the complex sugars they contain (Beano, a natural supplement you take with food, provides the missing enzymes). The sound, however, is all you. A fart becomes audible when you tighten up, Dr. Raymond says.


Digestion of Steak vs. Ground Beef
The fat content in ground meat and steak may vary depending on the source. For example, a New York strip steak gets 29 percent of its calories from fat, while a porterhouse steak gets 59 percent of its calories from fat. Percent of fat in ground meat varies, ranging from as lean as 7 percent fat to over 30 percent fat.

Face value
Face value also refers to the price printed on a ticket to a sporting event, concert, or other event (the price the ticket was originally sold for by the organization hosting the event).


par value
For example, if a bond certificate says $1,000, the face value is $1000. Bonds pay the face value at maturity, and calculate coupons as a percentage of the face value. Many bonds are issued at their face value, though discount bonds are not. The face value is also called the par value or simply par. See par value.

The test is used to help identify hyperparathyroidism, to find the cause of abnormal calcium levels, or to check the status of chronic kidney disease.igh PTH levels may be caused by: 1  A parathyroid gland growth (hyperplasia) or a parathyroid tumor. 2  A low level of calcium in the blood. 3  Some types of cancer, such as of the lung, kidney, pancreatic, or ovarian cancer.


PTH
PTH stands for parathyroid hormone. It is a protein hormone released by the parathyroid gland. The parathyroid glands are located in the neck, near or attached to the back side of the thyroid gland.Parathyroid hormone controls calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin D levels in the blood and bone.Release of PTH is controlled by the level of calcium in the blood. Low blood calcium levels cause increased PTH to be released, while high blood calcium levels block PTH release.A laboratory test can be done to measure the amount of PTH in your blood.TH stands for parathyroid hormone. It is a protein hormone released by the parathyroid gland. The parathyroid glands are located in the neck, near or attached to the back side of the thyroid gland.


PTH
The so-called intact PTH is the most frequently ordered parathyroid hormone test. It is used to help diagnose the cause of a low or high calcium level and to help distinguish between parathyroid-related and non-parathyroid-related causes.ow levels of PTH may be due to conditions causing hypercalcemia or to an abnormality in PTH production causing hypoparathyroidism. Excess PTH secretion may be due to hyperparathyroidism, which is most frequently caused by a benign parathyroid tumor. In rare cases, it may be caused by cancer.


Parathyroid Hormone
If your calcium level is too low, your parathyroid glands release PTH to get more calcium into your blood. If your calcium level is too high, your parathyroid glands stop producing PTH.Measuring the amount of PTH in your blood helps your healthcare provider find out the cause of an abnormal calcium level.This test is usually done early in the morning, the best time best to measure PTH.f your calcium level is too low, your parathyroid glands release PTH to get more calcium into your blood.

Parathyroid hormone (PTH), also known as parathormone, is a hormone released by the parathyroid glands. The four parathyroid glands are located in your neck, next to the thyroid gland. These glands are responsible for managing calcium, vitamin D, and phosphorus levels in the blood and bones.hus, calcium imbalances in the blood may be a sign of parathyroid gland or PTH issues. Calcium levels in the blood signal the parathyroid glands to release PTH. When calcium levels are low, the parathyroid glands increase PTH production.

good breakfast cereal or granola?

You could try oatmeal or cream of wheat just don't add sugar. Drop some cinnamon or honey into it for taste.

List of Assets in a Business
Assets keep a business afloat. They can be sold during lean times, used as collateral during expansion and help produce a healthy balance sheet. Business assets range from cash on hand, to buildings, to patents and logos. An asset is classified in one of three categories: tangible, intangible and intellectual property.

List of Assets in a Business
Assets, such as buildings, vehicles and office equipment, that are not consumed during the course of doing business are tangible assets. These assets are used in the process of doing business and are depreciated over time. Tangible assets are often listed under Plant, Property and Equipment on the Balance Sheet, and are consider high liquidity assets because they can easily be converted to cash.

Understanding Different Kinds of Assets and Asset Allocation
Intangible Assets. Most of the time, personal finance deals with tangible assets. However, there are also intangible assets, something I often touch on. Things like friendships, reputation, time, personal relationships, skills, talents, and other such attributes are intangible, but they clearly have value. You canât put a precise dollar sign on any of these things, but theyâre clearly assets.


asset
In accounting, anything of value that a person or firm buys. Assets can be physical, such as real estate or stocks, a claim on debts, such as accounts receivable or liens, or a right, such as a patent. Of crucial importance to assets is their relative liquidity, or the ease with which they can be converted to cash.

Does Abstinence Help to Improve Sperm Count?
Some studies claim that delaying ejaculation might increase the volume and concentration of sperm. However, infrequent ejaculation as a result of abstinence can impair the percentage of normal sperm and motile sperm. As you might suspect, this is extremely damaging when it comes to conception.


How long does it take for a man to replenish his sperm tank?
Sperm banks and fertility clinics usually tell sperm donors to go 36 hours without ejaculating before making a donation in order to give their sperm count time to build back up. For most men, it takes between 24 and 36 hours to âreplenishâ all the way after ejaculating and get back to their normal sperm count. However, the testicles are producing new sperm all the time. Even five minutes after a manâs last ejaculation, there are a few sperm ready to go. Views Â· View Upvotes.


-
Amount and thickness of semen. On average, each time a man ejaculates he releases 2-6 milliliters (mL) of semen, or around a 1/2 teaspoon to 1 teaspoon. Less than that amount may not contain enough sperm for a woman to get pregnant. On the other hand, more than that could dilute the concentration of sperm. Semen should be thick to start with and become thinner 10 to 15 minutes after ejaculation. Semen that stays thick may make it difficult for sperm to move.


Pregnancy, Trying to conceive & Parenting Forum

Pregnancy, Trying to conceive & Parenting Forum
my question is how long does it take to replenish his sperm?? We know we can't try more than once a day but sometimes it's the night before and then the next afternoon or morning even.

1 A barium enema (lower GI series) is an X-ray procedure used to define the anatomy of the large intestine (colon) and the rectum.  A barium enema involves filling the colon and rectum with a white liquid material (barium) often followed by air (double-contrast barium enema).


What is a colonoscopy?
The barium enema and double contrast barium enema are used to define normal and abnormal anatomy of the colon and rectum. Colon and rectal abnormalities that can be detected include diverticulosis, polyps, dilation of the colon, Hirschsprung disease in infants, and colon cancers.

Barium enema series facts. 1  A barium enema (lower GI series) is an X-ray procedure used to define the anatomy of the large intestine (colon) and the rectum.  A barium enema involves filling the colon and rectum with a white liquid material (barium) often followed by air (double-contrast barium enema).


-
What is a barium enema? A barium enema is an X-ray procedure that examines your colon. The colon, also called the large intestine, is a long, hollow organ in your abdomen. It removes water from digested material and forms feces.


-
A barium enema is also called a lower GI (gastrointestinal tract) series or lower GI tract radiography. It makes still pictures as well as moving images. It uses a special type of X-ray called fluoroscopy. The procedure involves putting barium inside the colon through a tube inserted into the rectum. Barium is a chalky metallic contrast material. It illuminates the colon to show detailed images of the inside of the colon. A barium enema is only one method used to diagnose colon conditions.


Screening Tests for Cancer
A lower GI series, also known as a barium enema, barium enema procedure, barium enema X-ray or double-contrast barium enema, is an X-ray test in which a white liquid, called barium, is infused through a catheter (tube) inserted through the anus and into the rectum until it fills the large bowel (colon).


What does semantics mean?
The word semantics itself denotes a range of ideasâfrom the popular to the highly technical. It is often used in ordinary language for denoting a problem of understanding that comes down to word selection or connotation.


-
A type is a set of values and a set of operations operating on those values. There are three categories of types in most programming languages: Base types int, float, double, char, bool, etc. These are the primitive types provided directly by the underlying hardware.


Semantic Feature Analysis
In Semantic Feature Analysis a word is analyzed in terms of a number of components of meaning. That is, during such analysis, the word is broken down into meaningful components which form the total sum of the meaning in a word.


-
In a compiler that runs in more than one pass (such as the one we are building for Decaf), the first pass digests the syntax and builds a parse tree representation of the program. A second pass traverses the tree to verify that the program respects all semantic rules as well.


Semantic Feature Analysis
The main objective of Semantic Feature Analysis is to guide the students to analyze the meanings of selected vocabulary items from a topic which they are familiar with. It also aims to show the learners how words are both similar and different, thereby emphasizing the uniqueness of each word in the language. Semantic Feature Analysis employs a chart to identify the basic features shared by key vocabulary words in a sentence or topic of discussion. By analyzing such a chart the learner is able to detect connections, make predictions and master important concepts.


-
Parsing only verifies that the program consists of tokens arranged in a syntactically valid combination. Now weâll move forward to semantic analysis, where we delve even deeper to check whether they form a sensible set of instructions in the programming language.


Semantic Feature Analysis
1 Semantic Feature Analysis helps the learner to understand the conceptual meaning (also known as denotative meaning) of words, which is the meaning given in the dictionary and forms the core of word-meaning. 2  Semantic Feature Analysis increases the learnerâs ability to choose the right word in right place.


-
Type Checking Type checking is the process of verifying that each operation executed in a program respects the type system of the language. This generally means that all operands in any expression are of appropriate types and number. Much of what we do in the semantic analysis phase is type checking.


-
Sometimes the rules regarding operations are defined by other parts of the code (as in function prototypes), and sometimes such rules are a part of the definition of the language itself (as in both operands of a binary arithmetic operation must be of the same type).


What are characteristics for convergent plate boundary?
Convergent plate boundaries can occur as a continental-continental, continental-oceanic, or oceanic-oceanic crust collision. A continental-continental collisions will typicalâ¦ly result in a mountain range formation, such as the Himalayan Mountain Range.


What Landforms Are Formed at a Transform Boundary?
Fault Lines. One of the primary landforms that is produced by a transform boundary is a fault. Typically these faults produce what is known as strike-slip faults.. These faults build up pressure as friction prevents them from sliding. When the pressure exceeds the force of the friction, they violently slip.


Divergent boundaries
Divergent Margins. boundaries where plates are moving toward each other, and. sometimes one plate sinks (is subducted) beneath another. The. location where the sinking of a plate occurs is called a subduction. zone. A transform boundary is where plates slide past each other. with no creation or destruction of lithosphere. Plate Margin Examples. There are three general types of plate boundaries: divergent, convergent, and transform. Each general type has multiple. âspeciesâ: divergent boundaries can be spreading ocean ridges or. continental rift zones; convergent boundaries can occur between. two continental plates.


What Landforms Are Formed at a Transform Boundary?
The Earth's crust is fractured into giant pieces, called tectonic plates.. These plates move atop the Earth's mantle, a fluid layer of molten rock. When adjacent plates move horizontally across each other, a transform boundary is formed.


Pangaea to the Present Lesson #2
1. Convergent boundary -where two plates collide to form mountains or a subduction zone. 2. Divergent boundary -where two plates are moving in opposite directions as in a mid-ocean ridge. 3.
