Question
Chapter 38.4, Problem 1C
Summary Introduction
To determine: Whether the observed necrotic lesions on the plant leaves are more likely due to a hypersensitive response or to systemic acquired resistance (SAR).
Introduction: Instead of an immune system, the plants have some defense mechanisms that are used to defend themselves from the attack of the pathogenic and herbivorous enemies. It consists of an efficient innate immune system and acquired resistance that help it to fight against local infections.

Students have asked these similar questions
A group of patients entered the hospital unconscious. All
patients are employees of a chemical plant, where mass poisoning
with cyanide compounds occurred.
Questions:
1. The development of which kind of typical pathological process
(TPP) is initiated by intoxication with cyanides?
2. Define this TPP.
3. What kind of TPP according to the pathogenetic classification
has developed in patients?
4. Describe the mechanism of formation of this type of TPP.
5. List the changes in blood gas composition and pH at this form
of TPP.
6. How can you explain these changes in blood gas composition
and pH?
7. What kind of tissue cell death is typical in this case?
please give me an answer that's not been posted yet.
think about one of these organ system: cardiovascular, respiratory, lymphatics, integumentary. Within one of those systems, talk about the most troubling symptom a patient might have that would signal to you an infectious disease. So just one system and one symptom per person, I'm sure you will all come up with many different ones.
For that symptom discuss why it is most troubling to you and how it might signify an infectious disease. You can also include examples of diseases that might fit with that symptom.
Under what conditions does Staphylococcus epidermidis become an opportunistic pathogen?
Group of answer choices
S. epidermidis can form biofilms on devices inserted into patients during surgery.
S. epidermidis becomes pathogenic when it overgrows in the throat.
S. epidermidis becomes pathogenic when it produces Shiga toxin.
S. epidermidis becomes a pathogen whenever a patient has untreated diabetes.

- In 1985 a Paterson, N.J., Fire Department ambulance responded to a call reporting two people with severe itching, which they attributed to "voodoo beans" found in their beds. Soon after arriving the ambulance medical technicians developed the same symptoms. All four of the individuals went to the emergency room where they were found to have rashes on various parts of the body in addition to their itch. The admitting nurse, who put her arm around one patient, also developed a rash and itch on her arm. A policeman who went to the apartment the following day and a trash collector at the building also developed itching and received emergency room treatment. In all cases, symptoms disappeared in 1-2 hours. An industrial hygienist went to the site in complete protective gear to look for possible chemical contamination.
