Trypanosomes coevolved with humans through a variety of mechanisms that left lasting effects on both organisms. These parasites generate two main human diseases: Chagas disease, caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, and African sleeping sickness, caused by Trypanosoma brucei.

CONCLUSION When you put an egg in vinegar, we see that the shell dissolves, but do you ever wonder why? An egg is made mostly out of calcium carbonate which reacts with an ingredient in vinegar, acetic acid. Acetic acid is about 4% of the vinegar and what breaks apart the solid calcium carbonate crystals. The bubbles we see, from the egg, is the carbonate that make carbon dioxide and the other calcium ions float free. This is the equation: CaCO3 (s) + 2 HC2H3O2 (aq) → Ca(C2H3O2)2 (aq) + H2O
