Answer to Question 1

bacilli

Bacilli are rod-shaped bacteria.

Answer to Question 2

A
Uric acid is an end product of protein metabolism, and levels may be elevated in renal failure and associated with increased dietary intake of purine-containing foods. Normal findings are 250 to 750 mg/24 hr (normal diet). A value of 900 mg/24 hr indicates an elevated uric acid level. Sources of purines include beef, liver, and sardines. Purine-rich foods like beef should be limited to small portions or eliminated completely from the patient's diet. Additionally, fatty foods like avocados aid the kidneys in retaining uric acid. Skim milk, yogurt, potatoes, and pasta are low-purine food choices that the patient can eat.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
