There are no other symptoms that the child feeling very fatigued. 1. This disease is most likely caused by what bacteria? Name the disease. 2. How would epidemiology assist you in finding the sources of this illness? 3. The boy had all of his vaccines so why does he have such a disease? 4. What course of treatment would you order and why? What type of antibiotic would you use and why? 5. What are the virulence factors for the causative agent? Explain the mode of action of these factors

The heights of European 13-year-old boys can be approximated by a normal model with mean μ of 63.1 inches and standard deviation σ of 2.42 inches.
A) What is the probability that a randomly selected 13-year-old boy from Europe is taller than 65.1 inches?
(use 4 decimal places in your answer)
B) A random sample of 4 European 13-year-old boys is selected. What is the probability that the sample mean height x is greater than 65.1 inches?
(use 4 decimal places in your answer)
C) A random sample of 9 European 13-year-old boys is selected. What is the probability that the sample mean height x is greater than 65.1 inches?

Sex of a person is determined by biology while gender is constructed by society. The gender role as a man or a woman differs culturally among different societies, classes, age as per what is considered as feminine or masculine by that culture. It is a kind of organizing principle of society taking care of the process of production, reproduction, consumption, and distribution.For example, according to gender, a boy is not supposed to cry as crying apparently is a weak act so perceived as feminine. In case of a girl, she is not supposed to be strong and aggressive. In this way, society has constructed stereotypes and when people who do not fit neatly into these parameters are made to suffer. They are made to feel isolated, alone and inadequate.These genders stereotypes are harmful to any society as they inhibit people to fully express themselves and their emotions. 15 lines or more

Linux Create two subprocesses using the system call fork(), and then use the system call signal() to let the parent process capture the interrupt signal on the keyboard (i.e., press the DEL key); The subprocess terminates after the subprocess captures the signal and outputs the following information separately: “Child Process l is Killed by Parent!” “Child Process 2 is Killed by Parent!” After the two child processes terminate, the parent process output the following information and terminate itself: “Parent Process is Killed!” Program with screen shot and explanation.
