Question
Chapter 25, Problem 7CT
Summary Introduction
To define:
Why there are fewer incidences of soil-borne and waterborne illnesses even though there is disease-causing microbes in soil and water.
Introduction:
The disease-causing microbes that are found in soil and water are causative agents of soil-borne illness and waterborne illness. When a contaminated water drinks or when a broken skin is exposed to the soil, the person may contract the devastating illness.
