Answer to Question 1

The Federal Forest Reserve Act was a law passed by Congress in 1891 that gave the president the power to set aside timberlands to be managed so that people in the future would have forests to use and enjoy.

Answer to Question 2

Forests benefit the environment in multiple ways, including:

1 . Absorbing excess carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
2 . Releasing oxygen into the atmosphere
3 . Helping to keep water clean by preventing excessive runoff into lakes and streams
4 . Providing a habitat for animals and other plants

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.

The cure for trichomoniasis is easy as long as the patient does not drink alcoholic beverages for 24 hours. Just a single dose of medication is needed to rid the body of the disease. However, without proper precautions, an individual may contract the disease repeatedly. In fact, most people develop trichomoniasis again within three months of their last treatment.
