Answer 1

Answer:

1. Phytoplankton are unicellular protista that live in aquatic environments, either salty or fresh. Some are bacteria, but most are single-celled, plant-like organisms. Diatoms and green algae are two great examples of phytoplankton
2. multicellular organisms are (1) Algae, Bacteria (2) Bacteria, Fungi (3) Bacteria, Viruses (4) Algae, Fungi. Multicellular organisms are those that are made up of millions of cells.
3. Viruses cause familiar infectious diseases such as the common cold, flu and warts. They also cause severe illnesses such as HIV/AIDS, Ebola, and COVID-19. Viruses are like hijackers. They invade living, normal cells and use those cells to multiply and produce other viruses like themselves.
4. Protozoan infections are responsible for diseases that affect many different types of organisms, including plants, animals, and some marine life. Many of the most prevalent and deadly human diseases are caused by a protozoan infection, including African Sleeping Sickness, amoebic dysentery, and malaria.
5. Common pathogenic bacteria and the types of bacterial diseases they cause include: Escherichia coli and Salmonella cause food poisoning. Helicobacter pylori cause gastritis and ulcers. Neisseria gonorrhoeae causes the sexually transmitted disease gonorrhea.
6. Some microorganisms grow on other organisms while others exist freely. Microorganisms like amoebacan live alone, while fungi and bacteria may live in colonies.
7. Lactobacillus
8. The bacterium, Lactobacillus promotes the formation of curd from milk and the bacterium, Renin is used in cheese production.
9. The main types of antibiotics include: Penicillins - for example, phenoxymethylpenicillin, flucloxacillin and amoxicillin. Cephalosporins - for example, cefaclor, cefadroxil and cefalexin. Tetracyclines - for example, tetracycline, doxycycline and lymecycline.
10. Some ways in which communicable diseases spread are by: physical contact with an infected person, such as through touch (staphylococcus), sexual intercourse (gonorrhea, HIV), fecal/oral transmission (hepatitis A), or droplets (influenza, TB)
11. Sodium benzoate and sodium sorbate are two examples of chemical food preservatives.
12. national immunization programme (NIP) is the organizational component of Ministries of Health charged with preventing disease, disability, and death from vaccine-preventable diseases in children and adults. A NIP is a government programme that operates within the framework of overall health policy.
13. Our modern understanding of the fermentation process comes from the work of the French chemist Louis Pasteur (Figure 2). Pasteur was the first to demonstrate experimentally that fermented beverages result from the action of living yeast transforming glucose into ethanol.
