Disease Control (CDC) determine that the agent causing the birds to die is the West Nile virus. Outbreaks of this illness have been observed in several other countries in Asia and the Middle East across the last 50 years, but not in the United States. With this information, what would be the best categorization of this infectious agent/disease

#SCPH06 I Botany
  1. This is clearly a reemerging infection. It's been around for a long time, and it is reappearing in a susceptible population again.

  2. This is clearly a nosocomial infection. It's transmitted from animals to human beings in urban environments.

  3. This is clearly an emerging infection. It hasn't been around that long, and it has made a jump across continents into a new susceptible population.

  4. This is clearly not a concern to human beings--maybe it's emerging in animals, maybe it's reemerging, maybe it's nosomial. But who cares? It's only in birds.

One of the enzyme that are involve in the ammonium assimilation is Asparagine synthetase (AS), some statements given below about AS such as,

a) This enzyme that catalyzes this reaction, is found in the cytosol of leaves and roots and in nitrogen-fixing nodules

b) High levels of light and carbohydrate inhibit the expression of genes coding for AS and the activity of the enzyme

c) Conditions of ample energy stimulate AS, thus they favor nitrogen assimilation into glutamine and glutamate

d) Energy-limited conditions inhibit GS and GOGAT, stimulate AS, and thus favor nitrogen assimilation into asparagine, a compound that is rich in nitrogen and sufficiently stable for long-distance transport or long term storage

Which of the following statements about AS is correct?

The conversion of ammonium to amino acids requires two enzymes such as GS and GOGAT,

a) High levels of light and carbohydrate—conditions that stimulate plastid GS and Fd-GOGAT

b) Conditions of ample energy inhibit GS and GOGAT

c) The stimulation of GS and GOGAT, they favor nitrogen assimilation into glutamine and glutamate, compounds that are rich in carbon and participate in the synthesis of new plant materials

d) In energy-limited conditions inhibit GS and GOGAT
