What is foot and mouth disease how does it affect the animal and how is it so infectious,?

---

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is an acute infectious disease, which causes fever, followed by the development of vesicles (blisters) - chiefly in the mouth and on the feet. The disease is caused by a virus of which there are at least three 'types', each producing the same symptoms, and distinguishable only in the laboratory.

It is probably more infectious than any other disease affecting man or animals and spreads rapidly if uncontrolled.
It is spread by close contact or wind borne, only cloven hooved animals can get it, cows/pigs/sheep/goats etc, with the exception of rats and also hedgehogs I believe, man very rarely, the last known case in a human was back in the 60's.  (+ info)

Suppose that N= models the number of cases of an infection, in millions, of a disease x years from now.?

---

Suppose that N= models the number of cases of an infection, in millions, of a disease x years from now.

a)Approximately how many cases of the infection will there be 9 years from now?

Answer:

Show your work here:

b)In approximately how many years will there be 5 million cases?

Answer:

Show your work here
Suppose that N= square root of x+3
Your question is missing a lot of necessary information. Like a GRAPH. At the very least, do you have some kind of linear or exponential function we could work from?

//

Okay, so now your function is missing some parentheses. is it... n=sqrt(x+3) or n=(sqrt x)+3 ? The answers to these equations is not the same, so the differences do matter.

As a rule, I don't solve your homework for you, but I will walk you through the problem.

a) x=9 years, so plug 9 years into your equation where x was and then solve it. Remember your order of operations. Do the part in parentheses first If there are no parentheses, then take the square root of x first, then add three,

b) n is the number of cases in millions you have. Your problem tells you that you have 5 million cases in part b. Therefore n=5 (remember, you were dealing in millions!). So plug 5 in for n, then solve for x. That means 5 = either sqrt(x+3) or (sqrt x)+3. You are going to need to isolate x.

IF 5=sqrt(x+3), then start by getting rid of that square root. You do that by squaring both sides of the equation. That way (5^2)=(x+3). Then you get the 3 away from that x by subtracting it away and adding it to the other side, making it (5^2)+3=x. Solve from there.

IF 5=(sqrt x)+3, then get rid of the 3 by subtracting it from one side and adding it to the other, making it 5+3=(sqrt x). Then square both sides to get x.  (+ info)

what's a bacterial disease that helps to destroy animal populations?

---

Anthrax. It is caused by Baccilus anthrasis a bacteria. It results in death of infected animals within minutes. It has also been reportedly used in biological warfare.  (+ info)

1. What causes disease? How do microbes (germs) cause disease in an animal’s body?

---

Germs causes diseases. Germs live everywhere. You can find germs in the air, on food, plants and animals, in the soil, in the water, and on just about every other surface — including your own body.

Most germs won't harm you. Your immune system protects you against a multitude of infectious agents. However, some germs are formidable adversaries because they're constantly mutating to breach your immune system's defenses.

Knowing more about how germs work can increase your chances of avoiding infection: Infectious agents come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Categories include:

Bacteria [ Bacteria are one-celled organisms visible only with a microscope. They're so small that if you lined up a thousand of them end to end, they could fit across the end of a pencil eraser. They're shaped like short rods, spheres or spirals]

Viruses [ Viruses are much smaller than cells. In fact, viruses are basically just capsules that contain genetic material. They may be shaped like rods, spheres or tiny tadpoles. To reproduce, viruses invade cells in your body, hijacking the machinery that makes cells work. Host cells are eventually destroyed during this process. Viruses are responsible for causing a wide range of diseases, including:

AIDS, Common cold, Ebola hemorrhagic fever, Genital herpes, Influenza, Measles, Smallpox ]

Fungi
Protozoa
Helminths.

Stem cell research for Parkinson's Disease--animal studies?

Do you know where I can find two animal studies for this? Thanks!
The fact is the primates make the best research candidates next to humans:

Can animals transmitt their disease to humans if we eat their meat?

---

If an animal has AIDS and we eat their meat can we contract the HIV virus or is it killed during cooking? If so then the people who eat pink bloody steak are at more risk than the rest?

What disease/virus still remain in animal meat after its cooked?
Does the same go for anything that comes from an animal like milk, cheese, etc. Milk is not cooked so it would still contain the virus?
There are a lot of diseases we can get from eating contaminated meat. Any disease a human can get from an animal is called a zoonotic infection.

HIV is exclusively human because it already made a species jump, so what your'e asking about AIDS and steaks is not gonna happen.

But a better example would be brucellosis from unpasteurized milk and cheese. If a cow is sick with Brucella, that bacteria can get into its milk. The milk we buy in stores is usually pasteurized, meaning it is gently cooked to kill off any germs that might be in it. If you drink unpasteurized milk from a sick cow, you can easily get brucellosis, a serious disease that causes high fevers, joint inflammation, heart inflammation (which can kill you) as well as flu-like symptoms.

There are some "health nuts" who want to make it easier to sell unpasteurized cheese in stores by repealing laws that require pasteurization for sales. If they get their way, that could make a lot of people sick!

As for eating meat, one of the best examples I can think of are parasites that cause cysticercosis. Pigs can get infected with a tapeworm called Taenia solium. If you eat rare pork, you coule ingest the eggs and cysts from this worm, and get infected with T. solium. This tapeworm can get into your brain and kill you. The infection lies dormant till gradually you start having headaches, seizures, go blind or deaf, then you die.

The American pork supply is generally safe, but cysticercosis is an important reason why we usually cook pork till it's really done, unlike beef which is often served rare. Thorough cooking can kill the tapeworm and its eggs and cysts.

Another important zoontic disease is mad cow. If a cow has mad cow disease and you eat its meat, you can die of a similar disease called Creutzfeld-Jakob Disease. The disease is caused by a protein that wrecks the brain. The protein is called a prion. Meat that is contaminated with infected nerve tissue can result in sickness after ingestion. The scary thing is you can't cook out a prion. We rely on health inspectors to make sure that the cattle that are slaughtered for beef are healthy.

So anyway, the lesson here is that food safety is extremely important and that people need to be mindful of where their food comes from and how to prepare it safely.

What type of disease/infection can you get from animals by eating meat?

---

I eat meat thats fully cooked and well done but I'm still worried that I could get a disease from the animal that it came from. Can we really trust the animals are healthy and well taken care of at the place they are raised and slaughtered?
Yes, there is mad cow diesese and the bird flu, but your all forgetting the biggest one of all! You could get Vocanalisticicitis, (VO-can-alis-TI-CYT-itIS), which is a deisese that you get from cows. When the cows eat grass, there is always bacteria, and this is a bacteria nobody knows how to rid of yet. The symptoms are dying skin, red blotches, neusea, headache, stomachache, bloating, symptoms of dehydration, and diahrea.  (+ info)

Is there an association between the consumption of animal products and diseases and cancer?

---

In other words, can animal products like red meat, poultry, fish, eggs, cheese, or milk cause (or negatively effect the risk thereof) heart disease, stroke, cancers or osteoporosis, or even obesity?

Does anyone know where I can find some good information on this subject?
