Answer 1

Answer:

Hope This Helps, For all☺️

Explanation:

1) Although the main sources of cross-infections in hospitals are other patients, doctors, attendants, and visitors, the clinical thermometer should not be overlooked. In most hospitals all patients have their temperatures taken at least twice daily whether they need it or not; although this practice may be justifiable, there is no justification for using five or six thermometers to take the temperatures of 30 patients, with only a brief immersion of the thermometer in a fluid of doubtful bactericidal properties between uses. Such practice, still all too common on busy wards with a shortage of nurses, may facilitate the spread of tuberculosis, diphtheria, scarlet fever, poliomyelities, nonspecific upper respiratory infections, and influenza.1 It may also help to disseminate antibiotic-resistant strains of micrococci. A 1:10,000 solution of bichloride of mercury used to sterilize thermometers was found to contain 7 million organisms per cubic centimeter.

2) Electron microscopy (EM)

3)Button Mushrooms

4)We should not allow water to stagnate near our house because: Stagnant water is a breeding place for several mosquitoes which are carriers of many diseases like malaria and dengue. It starts growing alga, etc. and stinks and rots the ground.

5)Anemia is a condition in which you lack enough healthy red blood cells to carry adequate oxygen to your body's tissues. Having anemia, also referred to as low hemoglobin, can make you feel tired and weak. There are many forms of anemia, each with its own cause.
