To determine:
(1) The disease and the medical and common name of this disease, (2) The acquisition of disease by the patient, (3) The reason for the lack of history of the sexually transmitted disease in his sexual partners, (4) The plausible treatment for the disease, (5) whether the patient is immune to future infections with this bacterium.
Case summary:
A 20 year old man has experienced painful urination and puslike discharge from his penis. The man has been sexually active with two or three women in the past six months. Since his sexual partners were sure about not having any sexually transmitted diseases, he had not used a condom.

- magine that you are conducting research on fruit type and seed dispersal. You submitted a paper to a peer-reviewed journal that addresses the factors that impact fruit type and seed dispersal mechanisms in plants of Central America. The editor of the journal communicates that your paper may be published if you make ‘minor revisions’ to the document. Describe two characteristics that you would expect in seeds that are dispersed by the wind. Contrast this with what you would expect for seeds that are gathered, buried or eaten by animals, and explain why they are different. (Editor’s note: Providing this information in your discussion will help readers to consider the significance of the research).arrow_forwardWhat is the difference between Uniporters, Symporters and Antiporters?
