Question

In this two-part assignment.

Part 1: Illustration

Illustrate a particular environmental agent and its effect on the environment. You may use a flow chart, diagram, pictorial, or other instructor-approved format. The illustration should show:

The vector-borne disease.

The pathway or chain of the disease.

The factors that contribute to the spread of the disease.

The effect of the disease.

Part 2: Narrative

In a short narrative (750 words maximum), do the following:

Identify the vector-borne disease.

Explain in detail the factors contributing to global warming.

Describe the effect of global warming on the incidence and prevalence of the disease.

Utilize a minimum of three references to support your claims.

Prepare the narrative portion of the assignment according to APA guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

This assignment uses a grading rubric. Instructors will be using the rubric to grade the assignment; therefore, students should review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the assignment criteria and expectations for successful completion of the assignment.

Answer 1

1)2)a) vector borne disease: it is transmission of a disease that is caused by a microorganism from one organsim to another organsims via a third organism and the vector borne disease are characterized by the vectormediated movement of a microorgansim from the host to a recipient and the host and recipient can belong to the same species alternatively the host and recipient can belong to different species . b)Factors contributing to global warming : the biggest factor is co2 emissions and industry , electricity and transportation and nonfossil fuel combustion and residential and commercial. c)Due to the changing rainfall patterns and rising global temperatures are already affecting the incidence and geographic distribution of certain infectious disease for example there is a shift in malaria distribution towards higher altitudes , higher rates of illness and death due to malaria have been observed in highland regions of east africa and chikungunya is another vector borne disease with a projected increase in prevalence in the coming years as consequences of climate change the incidence of water borne illnesses such as cholera etc is affected by episodes of drought and heavy rainfall associated with climate change. etc.
