To determine:
The reason why Jacob’s lymph nodes got swollen during the course of skin infection.
Case summary:
In the given scenario, person J got a prairie dog as a pet for his birthday. Two weeks after that, he was exhausted and felt terrible. He had fever accompanied by headache and muscle ache. Then the lymph nodes in his armpits and neck got swollen. He also got frightening large lesions all over his face and hands. For the next three weeks, the lesions became crusty and fell off, but got replaced by new lesions. It was confirmed that he had monkeypox, which is also a disease of rodents and canids, including prairie dogs. Jacob remained sick for 4 weeks, but monkeypox is not as virulent as smallpox, so Jacob recovered with one a few scars.

- We will be starting a group project next week where you and your group will research and ultimately present on a current research article related to the biology of a pathogen that infects humans. The article could be about the pathogen itself, the disease process related to the pathogen, the immune response to the pathogen, vaccines or treatments that affect the pathogen, or other biology-related study about the pathogen. I recommend that you choose a pathogen that is currently interesting to researchers, so that you will be able to find plenty of articles about it. Avoid choosing a historical disease that no longer circulates. List 3 possible pathogens or diseases that you might want to do for your group project.arrow_forwardnot use ai pleasearrow_forwardDNK dagi nukleotidlar va undan sintezlangan oqsildagi peptid boglar farqi 901 taga teng bo'lib undagi A jami H boglardan 6,5 marta kam bo'lsa DNK dagi jami H bog‘lar sonini topingarrow_forward
- One of the ways for a cell to generate ATP is through the oxidative phosphorylation. In oxidative phosphorylation 3 ATP are produced from every one NADH molecule. In respiration, every glucose molecule produces 10 NADH molecules. If a cell is growing on 5 glucose molecules, how much ATP can be produced using oxidative phosphorylation/aerobic respiration?arrow_forwardIf a cell is growing on 5 glucose molecules, how much ATP can be produced using oxidative phosphorylation/aerobic respiration?arrow_forwardHow do i know which way the arrows go?arrow_forward
