From Binet's work the IQ scale called the Binet Scale, (and later the Simon-Binet Scale) was developed. Sometime later, intelligence quotient, or IQ, entered our vocabulary.
Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease that usually attacks the lungs, but can attack almost any part of the body. Tuberculosis is spread from person to person through the air. When a person with TB in their lungs or throat coughs, laughs, sneezes, sings, or even talks, the germs that cause TB may spread through the air.
TB is short for a disease called tuberculosis. TB is spread by tiny germs that can float in the air. The TB germs may spray into the air if a person with TB disease of the lungs or throat coughs, shouts, or sneezes. Anyone nearby can breathe TB germs into the lungs. TB germs can live in your body without making you sick.
