Who invented the Cholera cure?
The Italian scientist, Filippo Pacini, would gain prominence for his discovery of Vibrio cholera
How does osmosis affect the ability to survive cholera?
Osmosis plays a critical role in the ability to survive cholera by regulating the movement of water and electrolytes in the body. In cholera, the toxin produced by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae causes excessive loss of water and electrolytes through the intestines, leading to severe dehydration. Osmosis helps to restore the balance by facilitating the movement of water and electrolytes back into the body to maintain proper hydration levels.
How would an immigrant get cholera?
From consuming food or drinks contaminated with Cholera micro-organism (If a person gets cholera it means he has consumed microscopic amount of faeces from a person suffering from cholera!) Food gets contaminated either by direct contact or by vectors like flies that carry the bacteria from the faecal matter to the food.

Cholera toxin polypeptide A binds to surface gangliosides on target cells what would happen if the gangliosides were removed?
If gangliosides were removed from the surface of target cells, cholera toxin would be unable to bind effectively to these cells. This would prevent the internalization of the toxin and its subsequent activation of adenylate cyclase, leading to a decrease in cAMP levels. Consequently, the disruption of ion transport and fluid secretion that characterizes cholera would be significantly diminished, likely reducing the severity of the disease. Overall, the absence of gangliosides would inhibit the pathogenic effects of cholera toxin.
