Write out terms from the passage that follows: 

A pesticide beloved of organic gardeners may cause Parkinson's Disease, says Professor Tim Greenamyre of Emory University, Atlanta. Pesticides made with rotenone, which is extracted from the derris plant, are commonly marketed as a safer alternative to man-made chemicals. But Greenamyre's findings show that when rats are repeatedly exposed to rotenone they not only develop the symptoms of Parkinson's - trembling and loss of muscle control - but acquire tiny lumps in the brain, known as Lewy bodies, that are a sure sign of the disease. "These results," says Greenamyre in the journal Nature Neuroscience, "indicate that chronic exposure to a common pesticide can reproduce the anatomical, neurochemical, behavioural and neuropathological features of Parkinson's."

Бонусные баллы

 

Бонус накапливается при получении студентом максимального количества баллов за учебный блок: по 10 за 2 первых (лекционных) блока и 50 за третий блок (семинарские занятия); за все три блока – 70 баллов.

Если студент набрал 70 баллов за работу в семестре, то он на зачете освобождается от ответа на один теоретический вопрос. Если же студент набрал свыше 70 баллов (например, более двух раз выступив с докладом по теоретической проблеме на семинаре), то он освобождается от практического задания (кроме того, что он уже освобожден от ответа на теоретические вопросы); таким образом, зачет проставляется автоматически.
