Introduction Foot-and-mouth Disease (FMD) is a very important disease and remains one of the most dangerous animal diseases of all. Countries with large and efficient livestock industries, fears FMD the most of all. (Wernery and Kinne,2012). The reason is, FMD is highly infectious disease and this can cause extreme production and economic losses in livestock-intensive areas by the World Health Organization of Animal Health (OIE). An outbreak of FMD can disrupt regional and international trading
Foot and Mouth Disease Synonym : Aphthous fever,Aftosa,Enzootic apthiae Importance Foot and mouth disease (FMD) is a highly contagious viral disease that primarily affects cloven-hooved livestock and wildlife. Although adult animals generally recover, the morbidity rate is very high in naïve populations, and significant pain and distress occur in some species. Sequelae may include decreased milk yield, permanent hoof damage and chronic mastitis. High mortality rates can be seen in young animals
Introduction: Life in the trenches was very hard for soldiers in World War 1. The Trenches caused many diseases during the war. However the trenches system continued to evolve during this time. The structure of the trenches is a good and safe way for soldiers to be protected. The use of trenches in World War 1 was to protect soldiers from their enemy. Topic 1: Life in the trenches was very hard for soldiers. The tactic used in World War I was the placement of trenches on the front line. Those areas

children being so young they have not been exposed to communicable illnesses so their bodies have not been able to create protective antibodies. Children under the age of three also explore everything and anything that they can put their hands and mouth, which also greatens the risk of developing an illness because pathogens are located in the discharge for the respiratory track.

animals’ expense that is. Factory farming in Ohio is highly detrimental to the surroundings and humans, not to mention its ethical flaws2 (Figure 3). As a result, today’s environment is polluted with carbon monoxide emissions, runoff pollution, and disease and much of this meat can cause health complications. This runoff can contaminate drinking water with fecal matter or antibiotics fed to the animals to increase their growth (Figure
the British only had 8000. The "war of movement" ended on 22nd of November and both sides now had dug themselves trenches and here attempts were made to prepare men for life in the trenches and starts dealing with problems such as lice, trench foot, trench rats, poison gas, and many other dangers and difficulties…. Men in the trenches suffered from lice. They created a sour; stale smell and as one soldier described them "As we sat up in bed watching the shirt he had taken off and put
Snowdonia National Park The history of Snowdonia national park falls into three periods. Between 1951 and 1974 it was very much a period of finding its feet and seeing how the work of the organization developed over these years, when it was important to gain the goodwill of the local community and local organizations. Some objected to the word "national" and others to the inclusion of non elected members. In the austere post war era economic development was a priority, and the decisions
nerve can be traced all the way back to Hippocrates (Sajadi, 2011). Viral infections are the cause of Bell’s, a few of them are chickenpox, shingles, herpes simplex virus 1 and 2, mononucleosis, cytomegalovirus, mumps, influenza B and hand-foot-and-mouth disease. When the facial nerve becomes inflamed following a viral infection it can press against bone or become pinched inside the small gap in the bone which damages the protective coating and is what causes the facial weakness or paralysis (Nordqvist
children. Children tend to chew on their nails and put their fingers in their mouth, this presents the microbe to the point of entry. Microbes in foods and water effects everyone. Bacteria replicates everywhere, including in food and water, however, viruses may only replicate inside a host cell. Necessities of life include food and water, so humans constantly digest bacteria. Once inside the body, microbes proliferate to cause disease or infection. When cooking a meal, the heat’s constantly destroying microbes
When the blood glucose is higher than the normal levels, this is known as diabetes disease. The body turns the food we eat into glucose or sugar and use it for energy. The insulin is a hormone created by the pancreas to help the glucose get into the cells. The sugar builds up in the blood because either the body doesn’t make enough insulin or can’t well use its own insulin (CDC, 2015). In the United States diabetes is known as the seventh leading cause of death. There are different types of diabetes

It is noticed that science develops in splashes, each significantly advancing our understanding of the nature. The 19th century was the time of rapid development of microbiology. In the search for secrets of nature science has reached extremely high and low energies as well as large and small length scales. Still until recently we knew very little about one of the most complex aspects of life – microbes and infection. Now we are at the dawn of efflorescence in molecular biology, which provides an
