Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

When Jake steps on a piece of ice it will activate a thermoreceptor which are free nerve endings in the dermis. This sensation will travel up the axon of a first-order neuron entering the CNS through the dorsal root. The first-order neuron will synapse with a second-order (interneuron) in the posterior gray horn. The second-order axons will enter the lateral spinothalamic tract on the opposite side of the spinal cord and ascend to the thalamus. At the thalamus the second-order neuron will synapse with a third-order neuron which will end at the primary sensory cortex on the left side of the brain.

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels.
