Question

1. mikhail is a russian soldier fighting on the front in wwi. his horse is in the stable at night, along with the horses of other officers. a sentry spots a german soldier running away from the stables. since the germans infected horses with glanders as a form of bio - warfare, can you predict what will most likely happen when mikhail rides his horse into battle next? the horse will be much slower getting to the battlefield because of the damage in its hooves. mikhail will contract the bacteria from the horses breath or mouth, becoming sick himself. the horse will become uncontrollable and erratic, purposefully throwing mikhail off. mikhail will not be able to ride his horse because it will be dead by the next morning

Explanation:

Glanders is a bacterial disease that can be transmitted from infected horses to humans. When Mikhail rides an infected horse, he is at risk of contracting the bacteria through contact with the horse's breath or mouth. The other options are less likely outcomes based on the nature of glanders.

Answer:

Mikhail will contract the bacteria from the horse's breath or mouth, becoming sick himself.
