His activity presents experimental results obtained when a suspected pathogen was tested and asks you to identify appropriate conclusions based on each scenario.
A rabbit was found to have floppy ear disease, which causes long-ear infections. Its etiology (cause) is unknown. Unknown Microorganism X from the infected rabbit's right ear is successfully isolated and cultured on laboratory growth media. The ear of a healthy laboratory mouse is then inoculated with isolated microorganism, and after a period of time, no disease is observed. Which of the following statements accurately describe(s) the conclusion(s) that can be drawn from this experiment?
Microorganism X might not be linked to floppy ear disease, because the inoculated mouse remained healthy

A laboratory mouse might not be an appropriate, susceptible host; an experiment with a laboratory rabbit may be needed.

A laboratory mouse might not be an appropriate, susceptible host; an experiment with a laboratory rabbit may be needed.

Explanation:

Pathogens are disease causing organisms and in most of the cases, they are host specific,

In this case, the pathogen (microorganism X) was isolated from an infected rabbit's ear and cultured. Th most suitable host to test the pathogenicity of the microbe would have been a rabbit because that is where it was isolated initially.

A mouse might not be a susceptible host, an experiment with a laboratory rabbit may be needed to affirm the pathogenicity of the isolated organism.

the function of the protein macromolecule is to move things in and out of the cell and transport other molecules in the body. there are many functions of proteins. they are the basic building blocks of living things and are responsible for the growth and repair of body cells and tissues.

explanation:

mountains can affect the climate of nearby lands. in some areas, mountains block rain, so that one side of a mountain range may be rainy and the other side may be a desert. much of airborne moisture falls as rain on the windward side of mountains.
