1. The primary research objective is to understand how the accumulation of parasites increases the age infection of the cricket population. The research is designed to use an age curve to quantify the infectious crickets removed from the population. 2. (a) Figure 1a: In experiment 2, the mean jump for the uninfected cricket was about 33 while the mean jump for the infected cricket was about 16. In experiment 3, the mean jump for the uninfected cricket was about 23 while the mean jump for the…

The Wuchereria bancrofti curls like an s at both ends . The female is longer and curls up at the end while male is shorter and also curls. What is the worms life cycle?

What type of climate does the worm live in? The Wuchereria bancrofti commonly…

get Zika by going to Rio or Uganda and getting bite by or stung by a mosquito or if you have intercourse with someone with the Zika virus. If a baby is born by women with Zika the baby is born with a small head at birth. The Zika virus comes from the Zika forest of Uganda.

In 1952 Zika infects its first…

releasing the GMO mosquitoes that people are hesitant to accept this as a solution. Additional research is needed to understand the full situation of Zika and the GMO mosquitoes. From the information presently available to us, we do know what the GMO mosquito and the Zika virus is, although we may not know all the affects of both on the human…

according to Lisa A. Beltz, an assistant professor in the Department of Biology at Kent State University and author of Emerging Infectious Diseases. It typically occurs in tropical and subtropical environments. The warm, moist air is ideal for the mosquitos that carry the virus. According to cdc.gov, a government website for Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there are four serotypes, or closely related viruses (dengue one, two, three, and four), which causes greater risks. It is…

Combatting the Zika Virus What may seem like a mild, common, mosquito borne illness can prove to be a tragedy to families. In most adults, the Zika virus simply causes fever, rash, and upsets the digestive tract, like many other illnesses, but when it comes to expectant mothers, it can cause devastating effects. Zika can cause the brain of a fetus to fail to develop, an issue known as microcephaly. This issue makes it impossible for an infant to successfully grow into a fully functioning human,…

I Really Hate Camping I woke up, sat up, and rubbed my eyes. I saw so much light coming from the windows. I was confused because I didn’t remember seeing light when I was falling asleep. It had been completely dark when I fell asleep. When I got out the truck, I realized the truck was parked behind a Waffle House. It all started when my parents planned a trip to go camping at High Falls State Park for fall break in 2013. The whole family had to go, including myself. We’re a big family of seven…

Harpreet Kaur (100297319) INTRODUCTION Chagas disease is a zoonosis disease and is caused by a transmission of parasite T. cruzi through insect vectors triatomine bugs to humans. The fecal matter of triatomine bugs which are infected with parasite T. cruzi is the main mode of transmission of parasite to humans. The main species of vectors which are responsible for 80% cases of Chagas disease in endemic areas are Triatoma infestans, T. brasiliensis, T. dimidiate, T. soadida, and Rhodinus…

quite similar to malaria in its transmission process. This disease manifests as severe joint and muscle pain, joint swelling, fever, among other symptoms. The epidemiologic triad applies to this disease as the mosquito infects the host via indirect transmission via the A. aegypti mosquito. These outbreaks are mostly seen in Asia, Europe, and the Americas; however, the CDC has predicted that this disease will eventually spread to southern US. It is misdiagnosed as dengue fever in many of the…
