Disinfection, sterilization, sanitization and antisepsis are used by many. Please explain why we need to control the microbial population in our environment in the first place.
Solution:-
Control of microorganisms is essential in order to prevent the transmission of disease and infection, stop decomposition and spoilage and prevent unwanted microbial contamination. Microorganisms are controlled by means of physical and chemical agents. Physical agents include such as high or low temperature, desiccation , osmotic pressure, radiation and filteration. Control by chemical agents include the use of disinfectants, antiseptics, antibiotics and chemotherapeutic antimicrobial chemicals.
Sterilization is the process of destroying all living organisms and viruses. Disinfection is the elimination of microorganisms but not necessarily endospores from inanimate objects or surface. Decontamination is a treatment of an object or inanimate surface to make it safe to handle. Disinfectant is an agent used to disinfect inanimate objects but generally to toxic to use on human tissues. The antiseptic is an agent that kills or inhibits growth of microbes but it is safe on human tissues. A senitizer is an agent that reduces microbial number to safe level. An antibiotic is a metabolic product produced by one microorganisms to inhibit or kill other microorganisms.
These all help to control the microorganisms so that no disease can harm the human population. By their inhibiting and killing properties they stop the diseases and help in controlling the spread of microorganisms.

Why do we need to have innate reflexes at all? Why do we need involuntary reflexes? In other words, wouldn't we be better off being able to control everything that our body does?
why not used dimmer instead of vfd?detail answer with example.like we use dimmer to control speed of fan,why not used vfd?why dimmer used. explain vfd controller working ? compare vfd with other methods/ devices which are used to control speed of three phase induction MOTOR.
Overall Explain to "The Boss" what integrals are used to calculate and why we need to use them. (He doesn't want to hear that integrals are the area under a curve).

Why do we need a mathematical equation to tell us how many heterozygous carriers there are in a population?
In quantifying the need for Internal Control, we generally look at the risk associated with a particular process or entity. Answer the following questions regarding risk & internal control: What are the two components generally used to assess risk, and what do they mean? Why is an awareness of risk useful for the application of internal control? What would happen if risk were not accounted for in internal control? Give three examples of specific internal controls, and explain a scenario/risk...
please I want the answer. Thanks Explain, why we need different failure theory in machine design ?
