Can the flu virus be transmitted through semen?

Influenza is highly contagious and is easily transmitted through contact with droplets from the nose and throat of an infected person during coughing and sneezing. There's no documentation of the influenza virus being transmitted through semen or vaginal fluids. However, because of close physical contact and shared respiratory space, the likelihood of transmitting influenza during the act of intercourse is quite high. But it is not classified as a sexually transmitted disease.Spread of the virus1. Large respiratory droplets (particles over 5 microns in diameter) that are expelled from the respiratory tract during coughing or sneezing. Particles do not remain suspended in the air, and close contact (over 3 feet) is required for transmission.2. Direct contact with respiratory droplets or secretions, followed by touching the nose or mouth.Incubation period1-4 days, with an average of 2 daysInfectivity1. Adults may be able to infect others beginning 1 day before getting symptoms and up to 7 days after getting sick.2. Children can be infectious for up to 10 days, and young children can shed virus for up to 6 days before their illness onset.3. Severely immunocompromised persons can shed virus for weeks or months.

How are anatomical features used to classify organisms?

These features were used to classify organisms before the development of DNA analysis. This way, scientists were able to look at certain morphological traits to classify the organism and then correlate them to their closest relatives. For example. Although bats are a lot like birds, certain morphological traits allow them to be classified as something other than birds. i.e. they are mammals - they have similar bone structure to most mammals In this regard, it is based traits other than their wings that they are classified as mammals, and not birds. Hope this helps

What is the use of nose?

The nose is the organ of smell, part of the of respiratory system, and it adds nasal sounds to the voice.

The olfactory nerve (nerve of smell), is located in the soft mucous membrane inside the nose.

How human differ from fish with regards to respiratory function?

Humans must first dissolve the gasses in water (in the alveolii of the lungs) before we can extract it, whereas fish only can get the gasses already dissolved. Also - fish have a one-way respiratory system whereas humans have an in and out respiratory system.
