meaning of epidemic virus pandemic
A pandemic is defined as “an epidemic occurring worldwide, or over a very wide area, crossing international boundaries and usually affecting a large number of people”. The classical definition includes nothing about population immunity, virology or disease severity.
By this definition, pandemics can be said to occur annually in each of the temperate southern and northern hemispheres, given that seasonal epidemics cross international boundaries and affect a large number of people. However, seasonal epidemics are not considered pandemics.
Answer:
The meaning of this answer is...
AN EPIDEMIC is a disease that affects a large number of people within a community, population, or region. A PANDEMIC is an epidemic that's spread over multiple countries or continents.

You decide to create a composting bin for your house. While checking on it one day, you notice that the compost bin has started to smell like rotting eggs. You know that a successful compost bin should not smell like this. You take a sample of the pile and check for the presence of microorganisms under the microscope. You see that there are indeed microorganisms. Given this information, what should you do to resolve the smell of your compost?(1 point)
Creating a tent for the pile to shield it from the sun and heat will help resolve the smell.
Turning the pile to aerate the compost and expose it to oxygen will help resolve the smell.
Adding more “brown” materials to the pile to increase the amount of carbon will help resolve the smell.
Adding more “green” materials to the pile to increase the amount of nitrogen will help resolve the smell.

Turning the pile to aerate the compost and expose it to oxygen will help resolve the smell
The best way to practice sustainable use of rangelands is to
Answer: 1. Rotating the rangelands that are being used.
2. Reducing overgrazing of rangelands.
Explanation:
Rangelands are the sites which are occupied and dominated by vegetation cover mostly the shrubs and herbs. It can be occupied by grasses. Overgrazing by the cattle cause a huge damage to the field of rangeland so it can cause soil erosion and can convert the rangeland on barren land. The regrowth rate is slower than that of the consumption rate of the cattle. So, reduction in overgrazing is advisable to maintain the sustainability of the land. Rotation of the rangelands being used if the cattle are taken to the different grassland for grazing on alternate days then the rangelands can be maintained sustainably.

Based on the context in paragraph 4, fossil refers to ____________.
a. how igneous rocks were formed over time
b. a trace or print, or the remains of a plant or animal of a past age preserved in Earth or rock
c. layers of sediment building up over time and pressing down, forming rock
4. Sedimentary rock is the second category. These rocks cover most of Earth’s land. Sedimentary rocks are made of pieces of other rocks and shells. Erosion causes rocks to slowly wear away. Erosion can be caused by rain, wind, freezing, and plant roots. Sometimes small pieces of rock are made because of erosion. The small pieces of rock are called sediment. Rivers take sediment to oceans and lakes. The river drops the sediments as it slows down. The sediments settle to the bottom in layers. More and more layers of sediment are dropped over millions of years. The weight from the top layers turns the bottom layers of sediments into rock. This makes some sedimentary rocks look layered. Fossils are often found in sedimentary rocks.
Answer:
b. a trace or print, or the remains of a plant or animal of a past age preserved in Earth or rock
Explanation:
Fossils are remains or prints of extinct species that are slowly filled in with sediment over time.

Sort the sentences based on the type of relationship they describe. Sea lampreys hatch eggs on fish and feed on the fish. Clown fish help sea anemones catch prey while using the sea anemones for protection. Mosquitoes suck blood from the bodies of organisms. Ants provide protection to acacia trees while receiving nutrients from the trees. Mutualism Parasitism Ants reserved PLZ HELP
Answer:
1: Parasitism
2: mutualism
3: parasitism
4: mutualism
Explanation: Hope this helps and have a great day!!
The sentences describe different types of symbiotic relationships between organisms are: Parasitism, Mutualism, Commensalism
1. Parasitism: Sea lampreys hatch eggs on fish and feed on the fish.
In parasitism, one organism benefits (the sea lampreys) at the expense of the other (the fish) by feeding on its tissues.
2. Mutualism: Clownfish help sea anemones catch prey while using the sea anemones for protection.
This sentence describes mutualism, where both clownfish and sea anemones benefit from the relationship. Clownfish protect sea anemones from predators, while they, in turn, provide a safe haven for the clownfish.
3. Parasitism: Mosquitoes suck blood from the bodies of organisms.
Mosquitoes exemplify parasitism as they feed on the blood of other organisms, taking nutrients without providing any benefit in return.
4. Mutualism: Ants provide protection to acacia trees while receiving nutrients from the trees.
This sentence represents mutualism, where ants defend acacia trees from herbivores, and in return, they receive nutrients and shelter from the trees.
5. Commensalism: Ants reserved.
The term "reserved" here seems to be incomplete, but assuming it refers to ants residing in a certain place, it would represent commensalism. Commensalism describes a relationship where one organism benefits, and the other is neither helped nor harmed significantly.
In summary, the sentences describe mutualism, parasitism, and possibly commensalism, showcasing the diverse interactions that can occur in ecological communities.
