Occasionally, an episode of food poisoning occurs which centers around processed ham, sausage, or salted pork. These episodes ar
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

<em>Staphylococcus aureus</em> is a bacteria that causes food poisoning and a range of other diseases. Staphylococcal food poisoning is due to the consumption of a toxin produced by <em>S</em>. <em>aureus</em>. The toxin is usually preformed in the food, which means, one need not ingest the bacteria before developing food poisoning.

An important characteristic of the toxin is that it is heat stable. Although the bacteria itself is not heat stable, once it grows in the food and produces the toxin, heat treatment is no longer effective, because even though the bacteria will be killed off, the toxin will remain.

Another characteristic of <em>S</em>. <em>aureus </em>is that it can tolerate high amounts of salt.

<em>S</em>. <em>aureus</em> is also a normal flora of the skin, so it is almost always present on the skin of animals used as meat.

Because the bacteria is salt tolerant, and its toxin is heat stable, it is often the culprit in foods that have been processed with heat and/or by curing (salting), as is the case with processed ham, sausage and salted pork.

Howard has a chemical burn from accidentally spilling a strong basic cleaning solution onto his arm. It causes a small burn mark
Stella [2.4K]

This kind of exposure is called caustic exposure.

Explanation:

A caustic exposure is an exposure to chemicals present in common household cleaning products like detergents, cleaning solutions, drain cleaners etc.

These contain caustic substances (strong concentration of acid or base) like sodium hydroxide, sulfuric acid etc. When exposed directly on to the skin, due to its stronger concentration, it may burn the skin causing redness, irritation, numbness, or blackening of the skin surface.

Most of the times, these marks go away after some weeks because they are superficial or first-degree burn where only the epidermal layer of the skin gets affected.

Pseudogymnoascus destructans is the fungus that causes WNS in Bats.

First we'll divide the the bats into four groups as:

A = 29, B = 29, C = 29, D = 30 (Control)

The A group is exposed to a small amount of spores of Pseudogymnoascus destructans and data is collected.

The B group is exposed to a moderate amount of spores of Pseudogymnoascus destructans and data is collected.

The C group is exposed to a lethal amount of spores of Pseudogymnoascus destructans and data is collected.

The D group is exposed to nothing.
