Answer: Raymond Wang: How germs travel on planes – and how we can stop them
1. After completing the unit and watching the video, explain how the unit about oceans and the video about germs on a plane relate?
In his video Raymond explains how the diseases are transmitted through planes from one country to another and the difficulties faced to prevent the spread of diseases due to the air circulation in the planes. It is always difficult to screen the person with disease and prevent them from getting into the plane since the air circulates in the conventional cabins. When a person sneezes, the air will get swirled multiple times and spread the disease.
2. Using examples from the video, explain why it is difficult to keep people who are sick off of planes.
It’s difficult to pre-screen for diseases. When someone goes on a plane, they could be sick and actually be in this latency period in which they could have the disease but not exhibit any symptoms and could possibly spread the disease to many other people.
3. How does Wang illustrate what happens in a conventional airplane cabin when someone sneezes?
He illustrates how the air is just being circulated throughout the plane. When someone sneezes, the air is just being circulated into the air. This means that everyone on that plane has breathed in that person’s sneeze because it’s such a compact place.
The Forestry Department is using a <u>chemical</u> control method. This involves using a <u>foliar spray </u>method, in which department personnel will spray pesticide directly on the trees’ leaves.
Explanation:
The chemical control method of pesticide control involves spraying chemical pesticides directly on leaves, shoots or roots of the plants. These chemicals are toxic to the pests only and the pests get retracted from the plants because of the pesticides applied.
A selective pesticide application is done to limit application to a target harmful pest which kills only that and does not harm the other useful or harmless species which thrives on the plants.
White pine blister causes rust of the branches and leaves of the pine trees. Hence, a foliar spray of the pesticide is done to control its spread.
