probability of the union of mutually exclusive events
probability of the complement of an event
Key concepts
Probability is always a number between 0 and 1, where 0 means an event is impossible and 1 means an event is certain.
The probabilities in a probability model must sum to 1. See
[link] .
When the outcomes of an experiment are all equally likely, we can find the probability of an event by dividing the number of outcomes in the event by the total number of outcomes in the sample space for the experiment. See
[link] .
To find the probability of the union of two events, we add the probabilities of the two events and subtract the probability that both events occur simultaneously. See
[link] .
To find the probability of the union of two mutually exclusive events, we add the probabilities of each of the events. See
[link] .
The probability of the complement of an event is the difference between 1 and the probability that the event occurs. See
[link] .
In some probability problems, we need to use permutations and combinations to find the number of elements in events and sample spaces. See
[link] .

What term is used to express the likelihood of an event occurring? Are there restrictions on its values? If so, what are they? If not, explain.
probability; The probability of an event is restricted to values between

The
union of two sets is defined as a set of elements that are present in at least one of the sets. How is this similar to the definition used for the
union of two events from a probability model? How is it different?
The probability of the
union of two events occurring is a number that describes the likelihood that at least one of the events from a probability model occurs. In both a union of sets
and a union of events
the union includes either
or both. The difference is that a union of sets results in another set, while the union of events is a probability, so it is always a numerical value between

Bacteria doesn't produce energy they are dependent upon their substrate in case of lack of nutrients they are able to make spores which helps them to sustain in harsh environments
_Adnan
But not all bacteria make spores, l mean Eukaryotic cells have Mitochondria which acts as powerhouse for them, since bacteria don't have it, what is the substitution for it?
Assimilatory nitrate reduction is a process that occurs in some microorganisms, such as bacteria and archaea, in which nitrate (NO3-) is reduced to nitrite (NO2-), and then further reduced to ammonia (NH3).
Elkana
This process is called assimilatory nitrate reduction because the nitrogen that is produced is incorporated in the cells of microorganisms where it can be used in the synthesis of amino acids and other nitrogen products
There are nothing like emergency disease but there are some common medical emergency which can occur simultaneously like Bleeding,heart attack,Breathing difficulties,severe pain heart stock.Hope you will get my point .Have a nice day ❣️

define infection ,prevention and control
Innocent
I think infection prevention and control is the avoidance of all things we do that gives out break of infections and promotion of health practices that promote life
