PRRS exists in two distinct forms, reproductive and respiratory, and infected farms may experience one or both. A variety of factors, including swine genetics, the specific PRRS virus variants in the herd, health status of the herd, ages of the animals involved, and pregnancy status, may influence the clinical signs.

The fact that carbon dioxide is a gas means that it must consist of simple molecules. Carbon can form simple molecules with oxygen because it can form double bonds with the oxygen. None of the other elements in Group 4 form double bonds with oxygen, and so that forces completely different structures on them.here is an enormous difference between the physical properties of carbon dioxide and silicon dioxide (also known as silicon(IV) oxide or silica). Carbon dioxide is a gas whereas silicon dioxide is a hard high-melting solid.
