Answer to Question 1

In large part Latin America exhibits urban dominance and primacy because a few key cities, during the colonial period, were the principal locations of investment. Following independence, these select cities continued to receive the lion's share of investment; rural-to-urban migration patterns intensified the concentration of population in these cities.

Answer to Question 2

There are two sources of heat in the Earth's interior:
i. radioactivity decay
ii. residual heat from Earth's formation

Though Candida and Aspergillus species are the most common fungal pathogens causing invasive fungal disease in the immunocompromised, infections due to previously uncommon hyaline and dematiaceous filamentous fungi are occurring more often today. Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.
