1. The HMPV infection is identified in gorillas infected with this pathogen.

3. The microorganism must be isolated from a diseased organism and grown in pure culture.

4. The organism, isolated from gorillas with HMPV, and when cultured will produce the disease when administered to experimental animals.

Explanation:

Robert Koch proposed four postulates to identify the fact that the causative agent or microorganisms is responsible for the particular disease. The pathogen can be isolated from the diseased or infected host and grown into the pure culture then again the pure culture is infected into a healthy host and symptoms of disease can be identified to prove that the infectious agent is responsible for the disease.

The following statements are the part of the Koch's postulates.

1. The HMPV infection is identified in gorillas infected with this pathogen.: This is the conclusion part of the postulates of Koch according to which the infection causing agent is identified which was responsible for disease.

3. The microorganism must be isolated from a diseased organism and grown in pure culture.: The microoganism is isolated and grown in the culture from the diseased organism so as to determine whether it is responsible for the disease or not.

4. The organism, isolated from gorillas with HMPV, and when cultured will produce the disease when administered to experimental animals.: According to the Koch postulate the microorganism grown in pure culture should be introduced to the healthy organism if it develops the symptoms then it is the causative organism for the disease.

On a recent expedition to a remote region of northern canada, scientists uncovered skeletal remains from about 100,000 years ago. surprisingly, all the skeletal remains, which included many species from differing biological families and spanned about two thousand years, showed evidence of experiencing temperatures in excess of 1000 degrees fahrenheit (or 538 degrees celsius). which of the following, if true, best explains the apparent paradox between the cold environment and the evidence of the bones experiencing hot temperatures? (a) chemical changes that naturally occur during the process of decay in only one north canadian species produce the same evidence of the species' skeletons being exposed to hot temperatures as the expedition scientists found. (b) a little over 103,000 years ago, a large fire is known to have occurred in northern canada. (c) strong evidence exists that as early as 70,000 years ago, homo sapiens around the world relied heavily on fire to cook animals. (d) in the same expedition and in roughly the same layer of excavation, scientists found rudimentary wood cutting and hunting tools used by early humans.

The human genome project is devoted to mapping the general dna sequence of our species. this could lead to the development of new medicines, as well as the possibility of using gene therapy to treat certain diseases. however, there are some ethical issues surrounding the mapping of individual genomes. one concern is a) that your genes may change over time, making the project useless. b) that insurance companies could discriminate based on genetic make-up. c) that since this has never been done before, we should probably not do it now. d) that sequencing our individual genomes is so expensive, it is a counter-productive strategy.
