◦ will kink toward the origin at 10 units of food.
◦ will kink away from the origin at 10 units of food.

Suppose the production possibilities for two countries, producing either food or clothing, are shown in the above figure. They can each produce any linear combination as well. Measuring food on the horizontal axis, the joint production possibility frontier
◦ will have a slope of -3/4 over the entire frontier.
◦ will have a slope of -1 when less than 20 units of food are produced.
◦ will have a slope of -1/2 when less than 20 units of food are produced.
◦ will have a slope of -2 when less than 20 units of food are produced.

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.
